Bio::Tools::TargetP(3)

NAME
Bio::Tools::TargetP - Results of one TargetP run

SYNOPSIS
   use Bio::Tools::TargetP;

   #filename for  TargetP result :
   $targetp = Bio::Tools::TargetP->new(-file => 'targetp.out');

   # filehandle for TargetP :
   $targetp = Bio::Tools::TargetP->new( -fh  => \*INPUT );

DESCRIPTION
TargetP modules will provides parsed informations about protein localization. It reads in a targetp output file. It parses the results, and returns a Bio::SeqFeature::Generic object for each seqeunces found to have a subcellular localization

FEEDBACK

  Mailing Lists
User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list. Your participation is much appreciated.

  Support
Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

APPENDIX
The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

analysis_method
 Usage     : $self->analysis_method();
 Purpose   : Inherited method. Overridden to ensure that the name matches
 Returns   : String
 Argument  : n/a

network
  Title   : network
  Usage   : $self->network($network)
  Function: This method Get/Set the network used for the analysis (PLANT or NON-PLANT)
  Example :
  Returns : string
  Arguments: On set, the network used

cleavage
  Title    :  cleavage
  Usage    : $self->cleavage($cleavage)
  Function : This method Get/Set if SignalP program was used to run TargetP
  Example  :
  Returns  : 1 or 0
  Arguments: On set, the cleavage used or not

next_prediction
  Usage    : $targetp->next_prediction()
  Purpose  : Returns the next TargetP prediction
  Returns  : A Bio::SeqFeature::Generic object
  Arguments: n/a

create_feature
  Title     : create_feature
  Usage     : $self->create_feature(\%hash);
  Function  : This method creates a new Bio::SeqFeature::Generic object
  Example   :
  Returns   : Bio::SeqFeature::Generic
  Arguments : hash reference

  PRIVATE METHODS

  _initialize_state
 Title   : _initialize_state
 Usage   : n/a; usually called by _initialize() itself called by new()
 Function: This method is supposed to reset the state such that any 'history'
           is lost. State information that does not change during object
           lifetime is not considered as history, e.g. parent, name, etc shall
           not be reset. An inheriting object should only be concerned with
           state information it introduces itself, and for everything else
           call SUPER::_initialize_state(@args).

           The argument syntax is the same as for new() and _initialize(),
           i.e., named parameters following the -name=>$value convention.
           The following parameters are dealt with by the implementation
           provided here:
              -INPUT, -FH, -FILE
           (tags are case-insensitive).
 Example :
 Returns :
 Args    :

  _predictions
  Usage    : $targetp->_prediction()
  Purpose  : Returns the number of TargetP predictions
  Returns  : A scalar (number)
  Arguments: n/a

  _parsed
 Title     : _parsed
 Usage     : $targetp->_parsed(1)
 Function  : This method is used to know if the output result is parsed or not
             For internal use only
 Example   :
 Returns   : 1/0
 Arguments : 1/0 for setting

  _parse_results
  Title    : _parse_results
  Usage    : $self->_parse_results()
  Function : This method parses a TargetP output
             For internal use only
  Example  :
  Returns  : n/a
  Arguments: none

  _parse_line
 Title    : _parse_line
 Usage    : $self->_parse_line($line)
 Function : This method parses the line result
            For internal use only
 Example  :
 Returns  : Hash reference
 Arguemnts: line to parse

  _add_feature
 Title    : _add_feature
 Usage    : $self->_add_feature($feature)
 Function : This method stores a feature object
            For internal use only
 Example  :
 Returns  : n/a
 Arguments: Bio::SeqFeature::Generic

  _toString_location
 Title    : _toString_location
 Usage    : $self->_toString_location($key)
 Function : This method convert the 'one letter code' location to
            the corresponding definition
            For internal use only
 Example  :
 Returns  : Location or undef
 Arguments: String
