Bio::SearchIO::gmap_f9(3) Event generator for parsing gmap reports (Z format)

SYNOPSIS


# Do not use this object directly - it is used as part of the
# Bio::SearchIO system.
use Bio::SearchIO;
my $searchio = Bio::SearchIO->new(-format => 'gmap',
-file => 't/data/her2.gmapz');
while( my $result = $searchio->next_result ) {
while( my $hit = $result->next_hit ) {
while( my $hsp = $hit->next_hsp ) {
# ...
}
}
}

DESCRIPTION

This object encapsulated the necessary methods for generating events suitable for building Bio::Search objects from a GMAP ``compressed'' report (from gmap run with -Z flag) Read the Bio::SearchIO for more information about how to use this.

REVERSE STRAND AND BIOPERL COORDINATES

I believe that I'm doing the correct thing when reporting hits on the negative strand of the genome. In particular, I've compared the ``exons'' this code generates with the set returned by ncbi's megablast web service. NCBI's hsp's are ordered differently and have a different genomic location (off by ~18,000,000 bases, padding?) but the starts, ends, and lengths were similar and my strand handling matches theirs. E.g.

   CDNA                            GENOME
 start  end    strand   start           end             strand
