    Function
</H2>
Display a DNA sequence with 6-frame translation and ORFs
<!--
DON'T WRITE ANYTHING HERE.
IT IS DONE FOR YOU.

<H2>
    Description
</H2>

<p><b>sixpack</b> reads a DNA sequence and writes an output file
giving out the forward and reverse sense sequences with the three
forward and (optionally) three reverse translations in a pretty
display format.  A genetic code may be specified for the translation.
There are various options to control the appearance of the output
file.  It also writes a file of protein sequences corresponding to any
open reading frames that are larger than the specified minimum size:
the default of 1 base shows all possible open reading frames.</p>

<H2>
    Algorithm
</H2>

<p>The program takes the following steps:</p>
<pre>
 The nucleic acid sequence is read in.
 The required genetic code is read in from the EGC* data files.
 The three forward and three reverse translations are created.
 The name and description are written to the output display file.
 Any required regions to be changed to upper case are changed.
 Any required regions to be highlighted in HTML colour tags are changed.
 The reverse sense sequence is placed below the forward sequence.
 The forward translations are placed above the sequences.
 The reverse translation are placed below the sequences.
 The display is written out, split at the ends of lines.
 Any ORFs that are longer than the specified minimum size are written to the output sequence file.
</pre>

    Input file format
</H2>

<b>sixpack</b> reads a single nucleotide sequence.
<p>
<p>

The input is a standard EMBOSS sequence query (also known as a 'USA').

<p>
Major sequence database sources defined as standard in EMBOSS
installations include srs:embl, srs:uniprot and ensembl

<p>

Data can also be read from sequence output in any supported format
written by an EMBOSS or third-party application.

<p>
The input format can be specified by using the
command-line qualifier <tt>-sformat xxx</tt>, where 'xxx' is replaced
by the name of the required format.  The available format names are:
gff (gff3), gff2, embl (em), genbank (gb, refseq), ddbj, refseqp, pir
(nbrf), swissprot (swiss, sw), dasgff and debug.

<p>

See:

<H2>
    Data files
</H2>

<p>
EMBOSS data files are distributed with the application and stored
in the standard EMBOSS data directory, which is defined
by the EMBOSS environment variable EMBOSS_DATA.

<p>

To see the available EMBOSS data files, run:
<p>
<pre>
% embossdata -showall
</pre>
<p>
To fetch one of the data files (for example 'Exxx.dat') into your
current directory for you to inspect or modify, run:

<pre>

% embossdata -fetch -file Exxx.dat

</pre>
<p>

Users can provide their own data files in their own directories.
Project specific files can be put in the current directory, or for
tidier directory listings in a subdirectory called
".embossdata". Files for all EMBOSS runs can be put in the user's home
directory, or again in a subdirectory called ".embossdata".

<p>
The directories are searched in the following order:

<ul>
   <li> . (your current directory)
   <li> .embossdata (under your current directory)
   <li> ~/ (your home directory)
   <li> ~/.embossdata
</ul>
<p>

<p>
The Genetic Code data files are based on the NCBI genetic code tables.
Their names and descriptions are:

<dl>
<dt>EGC.0 </dt><dd>
      Standard (Differs from GC.1 in that it only has initiation site 'AUG')
<dt>EGC.1 </dt><dd>
      Standard
<dt>EGC.2 </dt><dd>
      Vertebrate Mitochodrial
<dt>EGC.3 </dt><dd>
      Yeast Mitochondrial
<dt>EGC.4 </dt><dd>
      Mold, Protozoan, Coelenterate Mitochondrial and Mycoplasma/Spiroplasma
<dt>EGC.5 </dt><dd>
      Invertebrate Mitochondrial
<dt>EGC.6 </dt><dd>
      Ciliate Macronuclear and Dasycladacean
<dt>EGC.9 </dt><dd>
      Echinoderm Mitochondrial
<dt>EGC.10 </dt><dd>
      Euplotid Nuclear
<dt>EGC.11 </dt><dd>
      Bacterial
<dt>EGC.12 </dt><dd>
      Alternative Yeast Nuclear
<dt>EGC.13 </dt><dd>
      Ascidian Mitochondrial
<dt>EGC.14 </dt><dd>
      Flatworm Mitochondrial
<dt>EGC.15</dt><dd>
      Blepharisma Macronuclear
<dt>EGC.16</dt><dd>
      Chlorophycean Mitochondrial
<dt>EGC.21</dt><dd>
      Trematode Mitochondrial
<dt>EGC.22</dt><dd>
      Scenedesmus obliquus
<dt>EGC.23</dt><dd>
      Thraustochytrium Mitochondrial
</dl>

<p>

The format of these files is very simple.

<p>   

It consists of several lines of optional comments, each starting with
a '#' character.

<p>

These are followed the line: 'Genetic Code [n]', where 'n' is the
number of the genetic code file.

<p> 

This is followed by the description of the code and then by four lines
giving the IUPAC one-letter code of the translated amino acid, the
start codons (indicdated by an 'M') and the three bases of the codon,
lined up one on top of the other.

<H2>
    Notes
</H2>

<p>The -minorfsize threshold is in amino acid units.</p>

<p>An open reading frame is defined in this program as any possible
translation between two STOP codons. Optionally, the beginning or end
of a sequence may be counted as an ORF even if it is less than the
minimal ORF size or (end only) lacking a STOP codon.  See the
-firstorf and -lastorf options.</p>

<p>Open reading frames can be restricted to start with a start codon
using the -mstart option. This may eliminate some or all of the final
ORFs at the end of each frame.</p>
