Bio::Tools::Run::Maq - Run wrapper for the Maq short-read assembler *BETA*
# create an assembly
$maq_fac = Bio::Tools::Run::Maq->new();
$maq_assy = $maq_fac->run( 'reads.fastq', 'refseq.fas' );
# if IO::Uncompress::Gunzip is available...
$maq_assy = $maq_fac->run( 'reads.fastq.gz', 'refseq.gz');
# paired-end
$maq_assy = $maq_fac->run( 'reads.fastq', 'refseq.fas', 'paired-reads.fastq');
# be more strict
$maq_fac->set_parameters( -c2q_min_map_quality => 60 );
$maq_assy = $maq_fac->run( 'reads.fastq', 'refseq.fas', 'paired-reads.fastq');
# run maq commands separately
$maq_fac = Bio::Tools::Run::Maq->new(
-command => 'pileup',
-single_end_quality => 1 );
$maq_fac->run_maq( -bfa => 'refseq.bfa',
-map => 'maq_assy.map',
-txt => 'maq_assy.pup.txt' );
This module provides a wrapper interface for Heng Li's reference-directed short read assembly suite "maq" (see <http://maq.sourceforge.net/maq-man.shtml> for manuals and downloads).
There are two modes of action.
The first is a simple pipeline through the "maq" commands, taking your read data in and squirting out an assembly object of type Bio::Assembly::IO::maq. The pipeline is based on the one performed by "maq.pl easyrun":
Action maq commands
------ ------------
data conversion to fasta2bfa, fastq2bfq
maq binary formats
map sequence reads map
to reference seq
assemble, creating assemble
consensus
convert map & cns mapview, cns2fq
files to plaintext
(for B:A:IO:maq)
Command-line options can be directed to the "map", "assemble", and "cns2fq" steps. See "OPTIONS" below.
The second mode is direct access to "maq" commands. To run a "maq" command, construct a run factory, specifying the desired command using the "-command" argument in the factory constructor, along with options specific to that command (see "OPTIONS"):
$maqfac->Bio::Tools::Run::Maq->new( -command => 'fasta2bfa' );
To execute, use the "run_maq" methods. Input and output files are specified in the arguments of "run_maq" (see "FILES"):
$maqfac->run_maq( -fas => "myref.fas", -bfa => "myref.bfa" );
"maq" is complex, with many subprograms (commands) and command-line options and file specs for each. This module attempts to provide commands and options comprehensively. You can browse the choices like so:
$maqfac = Bio::Tools::Run::Maq->new( -command => 'assemble' );
# all maq commands
@all_commands = $maqfac->available_parameters('commands');
@all_commands = $maqfac->available_commands; # alias
# just for assemble
@assemble_params = $maqfac->available_parameters('params');
@assemble_switches = $maqfac->available_parameters('switches');
@assemble_all_options = $maqfac->available_parameters();
Reasonably mnemonic names have been assigned to the single-letter command line options. These are the names returned by "available_parameters", and can be used in the factory constructor like typical BioPerl named parameters.
See <http://maq.sourceforge.net/maq-manpage.shtml> for the gory details.
When a command requires filenames, these are provided to the "run_maq" method, not the constructor ("new()"). To see the set of files required by a command, use "available_parameters('filespec')" or the alias "filespec()":
$maqfac = Bio::Tools::Run::Maq->new( -command => 'map' ); @filespec = $maqfac->filespec;
This example returns the following array:
map bfa bfq1 #bfq2 2>#log
This indicates that map ("maq" binary mapfile), bfa ("maq" binary fasta), and bfq ("maq" binary fastq) files MUST be specified, another bfq file MAY be specified, and a log file receiving STDERR also MAY be specified. Use these in the "run_maq" call like so:
$maqfac->run_maq( -map => 'my.map', -bfa => 'myrefseq.bfa',
-bfq1 => 'reads1.bfq', -bfq2 => 'reads2.bfq' );
Here, the "log" parameter was unspecified. Therefore, the object will store the programs STDERR output for you in the "stderr()" attribute:
handle_map_warning($maqfac) if ($maqfac->stderr =~ /warning/);
STDOUT for a run is also saved, in "stdout()", unless a file is specified to slurp it according to the filespec. "maq" STDOUT usually contains useful information on the run.
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.

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _
Title : new Usage : my $obj = new Bio::Tools::Run::Maq(); Function: Builds a new Bio::Tools::Run::Maq object Returns : an instance of Bio::Tools::Run::Maq Args :
Title : run
Usage : $assembly = $maq_assembler->run($read1_fastq_file,
$refseq_fasta_file,
$read2_fastq_file);
