Bio::Search::HSP::ModelHSP - A HSP object for model-based searches

    use Bio::Search::HSP::ModelHSP;
    # us it just like a Bio::Search::HSP::ModelHSP object

This object is a specialization of Bio::Search::HSP::ModelHSP and is used for searches which involve a query model, such as a Hidden Markov Model (HMM), covariance model (CM), descriptor, or anything else besides a sequence. Note that results from any HSPI class methods which rely on the query being a sequence are unreliable and have thus been overridden with warnings indicating they have not been implemented at this time.

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.

 Title   : meta
 Usage   : my $meta = $hsp->meta();
 Function: Returns meta data for this HSP or undef
 Returns : string of meta data or undef
 Args    : [optional] string to set value
 Note    : At some point very soon this will likely be a Bio::AnnotationI.
           Don't get used to a simple string!

 Title   : noncanonical_string

 Returns : custom_score data or undef
 Args    : [optional] custom_score
 Note    : This is a Get/Set used to deal with odd score-like data generated
           from RNAMotif (and other programs) where the score section
           can be customized to include non-standard data, including sequence
           data, user-based scores, and other values.

Implementation of Bio::Search::HSP::HSPI methods follow

 Title   : algorithm
 Usage   : my $r_type = $hsp->algorithm
 Function: Obtain the name of the algorithm used to obtain the HSP
 Returns : string (e.g., BLASTP)
 Args    : [optional] scalar string to set value

 Title   : strand
 Usage   : $hsp->strand('hit')
 Function: Retrieves the strand for the HSP component requested
 Returns : +1 or -1 (0 if unknown)
 Args    : 'hit' or 'subject' or 'sbjct' to retrieve the strand of the subject.
           There is no strand available for 'query', as the query is a model
           and not a true sequence.

 Usage     : $hsp->seq( [seq_type] );
 Purpose   : Get the query or sbjct sequence as a Bio::Seq.pm object.
 Example   : $seqObj = $hsp->seq('sbjct');
 Returns   : Object reference for a Bio::Seq.pm object.
 Argument  : seq_type = 'query' or 'hit' or 'sbjct' (default = 'sbjct').
           :  ('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit') 
           : default is 'sbjct'
           : Note: if there is no sequence available (eg for a model-based
           : search), this returns a LocatableSeq object w/o a sequence
 Throws    : Propagates any exception that occurs during construction
           : of the Bio::Seq.pm object.
 Comments  : The sequence is returned in an array of strings corresponding
           : to the strings in the original format of the Blast alignment.
           : (i.e., same spacing).

 Args     : arg 1: 'query' = num gaps in query seq
                   'hit'   = num gaps in hit seq

         : The homology sequence is the string of symbols in between the 
         : query and hit sequences in the alignment indicating the degree
         : of conservation (e.g., identical, similar, not similar).
 Returns : string
 Args    : [optional] string to set for homology sequence

 Title    : length

           or query frame if defined or subject frame if not defined
 Args    : 'hit' or 'subject' or 'sbjct' to retrieve the frame of the subject (default)
           'query' to retrieve the query frame 
           'list' or 'array' to retrieve both query and hit frames together
 Note    : Frames are stored in the GFF way (0-2) not 1-3
           as they are in BLAST (negative frames are deduced by checking
                                 the strand of the query or hit)

 Title   : get_aln
 Usage   : my $aln = $hsp->gel_aln

The following methods have been overridden due to their current reliance on sequence-based queries. They may be implemented in future versions of this class.
