1.0 SUMMARY

Generates a DHF (domain hits file) of hits (sequences) from scanning a signature against a sequence database. Generates hits (DHF file) from a signature search


2.0 INPUTS & OUTPUTS

SIGSCAN reads a signature from a protein signature file, scans the signature against a protein sequence database and generates a DHF file (domain hits file) of hits to database sequences and a DAF file (domain alignment file) of corresponding signature-sequence alignments. The names of the signature file, DHF file and DAF file are provided by the user. The user specifies a maximum number of high-scoring hits that will be generated.


3.0 INPUT FILE FORMAT

The format of the signature file is described in SIGGEN documentation.

4.0 OUTPUT FILE FORMAT

DHF file (domain hits file)
The format of the DHF file (domain hits file) of hit sequences generated by SIGSCAN (Figure 1) is described fully in SEQSEARCH documentation and only summarised here. The file contains two lines per hit, the first is a description of the hit in 16 text tokens delimited by '^'. The second line contains the protein sequence. The first 4 tokens refer to the hit (sequence) itself, the tokens are
The next 9 tokens refer to the domain family, superfamily etc for which the signature was derived and are as follows:
The next 4 tokens refer to the hit, specifically, information about the search result as follows:

DAF file (domain alignment file)
The format of the DAF file (domain alignment file, Figure 2) generated by SIGSCAN is described fully in DOMAINALIGN documentation and is only summarised here.
It conforms to EMBOSS "simple" multiple sequence alignment format and includes domain classification records (in comment lines beginning with '#') for the node for which the signature was generated. The classification records are TY (domain type, either SCOP or CATH), CL (class), FO (fold), SF (superfamily) and FA (family). For CATH domains, AR (architecture) and TP (topology) may also be given. A unique identifier for the node is given after SI.
There are multiple blocks that contain the accession numbers, positions and aligned sequences. An accession number is given for each hit. The positions are the start and end residue positions of the appropriate section of sequence. The sequence uses '-' as a gap character. A 'SIGNATURE' line is given as a markup line underneath the sequence (signature positions are marked with a '*').

5.0 DATA FILES

SIGSCAN requires a residue substitution matrix.


6.0 USAGE

Generates hits (DHF file) from a signature search
Version: EMBOSS:6.4.0.0

   Standard (Mandatory) qualifiers:
  [-siginfile]         infile     This option specifies the name of the
                                  signature file (input). A 'signature file'
                                  contains a sparse sequence signature
                                  suitable for use with the SIGSCAN and
                                  SIGSCANLIG programs. The files are generated
                                  by using SIGGEN and SIGGENLIG.
  [-dbsequence]        seqall     This option specifies the name of the
                                  database to search.
   -sub                matrixf    [EBLOSUM62] This option specifies the
                                  residue substitution matrix.
   -gapo               float      [10.0 for any sequence] This option
                                  specifies the gap insertion penalty. The gap
                                  insertion penalty is the score taken away
                                  when a gap is created. The best value
                                  depends on the choice of comparison matrix.
                                  The default value assumes you are using the
                                  EBLOSUM62 matrix for protein sequences, and
                                  the EDNAMAT matrix for nucleotide sequences.
                                  (Floating point number from 1.0 to 100.0)
   -gape               float      [0.5 for any sequence] This option specifies
                                  the gap extension penalty. The gap
                                  extension penalty is added to the standard
                                  gap penalty for each base or residue in the
                                  gap. This is how long gaps are penalized.
                                  Usually you will expect a few long gaps
                                  rather than many short gaps, so the gap
                                  extension penalty should be lower than the
                                  gap penalty. (Floating point number from 0.0
                                  to 10.0)
   -nterm              menu       [1] This option specifies the N-terminal
                                  matching option. This determines how the
                                  first signature position is aligned to a
                                  sequence from the database. (Values: 1
                                  (Align anywhere and allow only complete
                                  signature-sequence fit); 2 (Align anywhere
                                  and allow partial signature-sequence fit); 3
                                  (Use empirical gaps only))
   -nhits              integer    [100] This option specifies the maximum
                                  number of hits to output. (Any integer
                                  value)
  [-hitsfile]          outfile    [SIGSCAN.dhf] This option specifies the name
                                  of the DHF file (domain hits file)
                                  (output). A 'domain hits file' contains
                                  database hits (sequences) with domain
                                  classification information, in the DHF
                                  format (FASTA-like). The hits are relatives
                                  to a SCOP or CATH family (or other node in
                                  the structural hierarchies) and are found
                                  from a search of a sequence database, in
                                  this case, by using SIGSCAN. Files
                                  containing hits retrieved by PSIBLAST are
                                  generated by using SEQSEARCH or various
                                  types of HMM and profile by using LIBSCAN.
  [-alignfile]         outfile    [SIGSCAN.aln] This option specifies the name
                                  of the SAF (signature alignment file)
                                  (output).A 'signature alignment file'
                                  contains one or more signature-sequence
                                  alignments. The file is in DAF format
                                  (CLUSTAL-like) and is annotated with
                                  bibliographic information, either the domain
                                  family classification (for SIGSCAN output)
                                  or ligand classification (for SIGSCANLIG
                                  output). The files generated by SIGSCAN will
                                  contain a signature-sequence alignment for
                                  a single signature against a library of one
                                  or more sequences. The files generated by
                                  using SIGSCANLIG will contain a
                                  signature-sequence alignment for a single
                                  query sequence against a library of one or
                                  more signatures.

8.0 NOTES

SIGSCAN does not generate p-values or E-values. DHF files of hits for which p-values or E-values are calculated may be generated by using LIBSCAN . LIBSCAN provides searches for sparse protein signatures as well as various types of hidden Markov models and other profiles.

In the case a signature file is generated by hand, it is essential that the gap data given is listed in order of increasing gap size (see SIGGEN documentation ).

8.1 GLOSSARY OF FILE TYPES

FILE TYPE FORMAT DESCRIPTION CREATED BY SEE ALSO
Domain hits file DHF format (FASTA-like). Database hits (sequences) with domain classification information. The hits are relatives to a SCOP or CATH family (or other node in the structural hierarchies) and are found from a search of a discriminating element (e.g. a protein signature, hidden Markov model, simple frequency matrix, Gribskov profile or Hennikoff profile) against a sequence database. SEQSEARCH (hits retrieved by PSIBLAST). SIGSCAN (hits retrieved by sparse protein signature). LIBSCAN (hits retrieved by various types of HMM and profile). N.A.
Domain alignment file DAF format (CLUSTAL-like). Sequence alignment of domains belonging to the same SCOP or CATH family (or other node in the structural hierarchies). The file is annotated with domain family classification information. DOMAINALIGN (structure-based sequence alignment of domains of known structure). DOMAINALIGN alignments can be extended with sequence relatives (of unknown structure) to the family in question by using SEQALIGN.
Hits file Text file of classified hits A list of hits (e.g. from a prediction method) that are classified and rank-ordered on the basis of score, p-value, E-value etc. ROCON and LIBSCAN (hits from searches of a discriminating element (hidden Markov model, profile or signature) against a sequence database). ROCPLOT is run on the files to perform Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC) analysis on the hits.
Signature file SIG format Contains a sparse sequence signature suitable for use with the SIGSCAN program. Contains a sparse sequence signature. SIGGEN, SIGGENLIG, LIBGEN The files are generated by using SIGGEN.
