Here ya go,
(?:^.*?=\s)(\d+)(?:\/.*?\()(\d+)
This will do the following:
(?:^.*?=\s) matches (but ignores) 'Identities = '
(\d+) matches the numerator of the fraction PUTS IT INTO $1
(?:\/.*?\() matches ('/135 ('
(\d+) matches the percentage PUTS IT INTO $2
Here is another,
(\d+)(?:\s\()(\d+)
I like the first one because it handles the line in its entirety. Its
stricter and easy to read. Non-capturing parts I don't want are clear,
and
the parts I want are clear.
If you wanted to have some fun and get the rest of the data, then
(?:^.*?=\s)(\d+)(?:\/)(\d+)(?:.*?\()(\d+)(?:.*?\s)(\d+)(?:\/)(\d+)(?:.*?\()(\d+)
you get:
$1 = 124 # num
$2 = 135 # denom
$3 = 91 # percent
$4 = 2 # num
$5 = 135 # denom
$6 = 1 # percent

Message-ID: <20030501211000.GB20466 at bioinfo.ucr.edu>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
I am trying to fetch seqs from GenBank using the get_Stream_by_query(),
however the following code gives me an error:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use Bio::DB::GenBank;
use Bio::SeqIO;
use strict;
my $gb = new Bio::DB::GenBank;
my $seqin = new Bio::SeqIO(-format => 'efa');
my $seqout = new Bio::SeqIO(-format => 'efa');
my $seqio = $gb->get_Stream_by_query('Oryza sativa[Organism] AND EST');
while( my $seq = $seqio->next_seq ) {
print "seq length is ", $seq->length,"\n";
}
The error is:
Warning(s) from GenBank:
<FieldNotFound>Organism</FieldNotFound>
Any thoughts? Tying the query into www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov gives the
correct results.
Just in case there is another, better way to do this I am trying to find
the GI for a seqence. However, I am limited to basically the TIGR
accession number, a displayname similar to the swissprot name (aka:
something like AtFUT1, where FUT1_ARATH is the swprot name.
My plan was to do a query supplying all the info I have. This returns
numerous results, then I'd compare the sequences and look for a match.
Is there a better way to do this? There are quite a few seqs so I'd
rather not do it by hand.
Thanks,

Hi!
I've been using RemoteBlast with a fasta file which has several
sequences.
My problem is how do I distinguish the sequences once I retrieve the
results. An obvious answer would be query_name, but I'm having problems
making it work. Basically, it doesn't return anything and the blast file
doesn't have a query name either. I tried to use different fasta
headers,
but the problem persists. Anyone can help?
I searched the list's archives and found a similar problem dating to
June 2002:
http://bioperl.org/pipermail/bioperl-l/2002-June/008208.html
And I found the exact same problem in November of 2002:
http://bioperl.org/pipermail/bioperl-l/2002-November/010255.html
Only no solution was presented at the time. Has anyone thought of a
solution?
Alternatively, I can search one sequence at a time, but I'm sure there's
a
smarter way of BLASTing multiple sequences.
Thanking you.

Hi,
I am using the locuslink.pm with SeqIO to read the LL_tmpl file and was
just wondering about data that are left out.
1. Looking at locusid 1 and 2. The first record begins:
>>1
LOCUSID: 1
LOCUS_CONFIRMED: yes
LOCUS_TYPE: gene with protein product, function known or inferred
ORGANISM: Homo sapiens
STATUS: REVIEWED
NM: NM_130786|21071029|na
NP: NP_570602|21071030
CDD: Immunoglobulin C-2 Type|smart00408|104|na|4.466900e+01
PRODUCT: alpha 1B-glycoprotein
ASSEMBLY: AF414429,AK055885,AK056201
The second record begins:
>>2
LOCUSID: 2
LOCUS_CONFIRMED: yes
LOCUS_TYPE: gene with protein product, function known or inferred
ORGANISM: Homo sapiens
STATUS: REVIEWED
NM: NM_000014|6226959|na
NP: NP_000005|4557225
CDD: Ependymins|EPEND|86|na|3.773540e+01
CDD: Alpha-2-macroglobulin family|pfam00207|2501|na|9.679920e+02
CDD: Alpha-2-macroglobulin family N-terminal
region|pfam01835|1889|na|7.322500e+02
PRODUCT: alpha 2 macroglobulin precursor
ASSEMBLY: M11313
In the first record the CDD line doesn't appear to be stored at all. In
the second record the first CDD line is stored ie the one beginning
with "Ependymins" but the other two are not. I was wondering about the
logic behind this.
2. Also wondering about things like LOCUS_CONFIRMED and STATUS and why
these are left out.
3. Lastly, and this is very nit-picking ;) but thought you might want
it pointed out for consistency...
In Bio::Annotation::OntologyTerm the as_text() method does something
different than it says it will, and different to other as_text()
methods. ie it doesn't print "Value: "
=head2 as_text
Title : as_text
Usage : my $text = $obj->as_text
Function: return the string "Name: $v" where $v is the name of the
term
Returns : string
Args : none
=cut
sub as_text{
my ($self) = @_;
return $self->tagname()."|".$self->name()."|".$self->identifier();
}

Hi All,
I'm getting a problem with the taxonomy module when I write this script:

my $taxaid=$db->get_taxaid("Salmonella");
my $species=$db->get_Taxonomy_Node(-taxaid=>$taxaid);

The error I get is Can't call method "children" on an undefined value at

I think this is when the get_taxaid routine is called
Can anyone advise on this. Thanks in advance,

Hi,
I was playing around with the Bio::Index::Fasta
module, but got the following error. I index a Fasta
formatted sequence file and then try to search for
sequences with the fetch function.
I copied the code from the documentation of
Bio::Index::Fasta. The only difference is that the
example code in the documentation prints to STDIO and
I wanted it to write to a file. I have a very silly
mistake. I will really appreciate any help.
thanks,
Prachi.

I have implemented another version of Miller-Myers algorithm that does
almost two passes (find one pair of end points and then go back to find
the starting points. Is there a better way?) to find the end points and
then do Miller-Myers global alignment to align the subsequences bounded
by
the end points. This should be equivalent to ssearch in terms of purpose
I believe my statement was misleading as far as space consumption is
concerned because I didn't state that ssearch uses memory space to do
other things. I am sorry if that causes any inconvenience. However, I
still stand by the statements related to speed because I did mention it
took four passes to calculate a local alignment and I stated clearly
that
your time should be halved before any comparison to my program.

You can download my code at
http://www.stanford.edu/~yeeman/dsw.tgz
This is a perl XS implementation. It has both my code (in linspc.c) and
Phil Green's code (inside pgreen directory) I extracted from ssearch
source code. The memory usage now becomes 6.5MB vs 8.5MB and 28 sec vs
56
sec in my machine. I removed lots of "junk" in that Phil Green code but
it
still underperform my code. In fact, Aaron checked my Phil Green library
before. He thinks my library is correct but he said it was slower than
he
thought. He told me he will look into that but I never heard from him
about this since January.
I believe Phil Green's code should be theoretically faster (although I
couldn't find his paper/documentation). There may be something wrong in
my
Phil Green library I don't notice. It would be great if Aaron can point
that out.
Thanks a lot.

Hi!
I'm using Bio::Graphics to display putative transcription factor binding
sites upstream of the ORF. My problem is that I need to show negative
values in regard to the distance to the ORF. How can I draw a scale with
negative values? For the moment I draw a scale like this:
my $full_length = Bio::SeqFeature::Generic->new(-start=>1,-end=>1000,
-seq_id=>"$query");
$panel->add_track($full_length,
-glyph => 'arrow',
-tick => 1,
-fgcolor => 'black',
);
But I want start to be "-1000" and end "-1". Only if I put negative
values,
the scale disappears. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi Mikhail,
Did you ever figure this out? I just got the same message. I am
running
RedHat Linux 7.0, so I don't think it is caused by Debian. I seem to
get
this error on a sequence where no hits are returned from bl2seq. The
wierd
part is that it seemed to work fine on a sequence just before it that
also
did not have any hsps. Probably related to the other errors that folks
have reported with "no hits" in BPbl2seq.pm?
