Bio::Search::Hit::GenericHit - A generic implementation of the Bio::Search::Hit::HitI interface
use Bio::Search::Hit::GenericHit;
my $hit = Bio::Search::Hit::GenericHit->new(-algorithm => 'blastp');
# typically one gets HitI objects from a SearchIO stream via a ResultI
use Bio::SearchIO;
my $parser = Bio::SearchIO->new(-format => 'blast', -file => 'result.bls');
my $result = $parser->next_result;
my $hit = $result->next_hit;
# TODO: Describe how to configure a SearchIO stream so that it generates # GenericHit objects.
This object handles the hit data from a Database Sequence Search such as FASTA or BLAST.
Unless you're writing a parser, you won't ever need to create a GenericHit or any other HitI-implementing object. If you use the SearchIO system, HitI objects are created automatically from a SearchIO stream which returns Bio::Search::Hit::HitI objects.
For documentation on what you can do with GenericHit (and other HitI objects), please see the API documentation in Bio::Search::Hit::HitI.
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.

Argument : n/a
Throws : n/a
Comment : Note: "sbjct" is synonymous with "hit"
See documentation in Bio::Search::Hit::HitI::overlap()
Usage : $hit_object->n();
Purpose : Gets the N number for the current hit.
: This is the number of HSPs in the set which was ascribed
: the lowest P-value (listed on the description line).
: This number is not the same as the total number of HSPs.
: To get the total number of HSPs, use num_hsps().
Example : $n = $hit_object->n();
Returns : Integer
Argument : n/a
Throws : Exception if HSPs have not been set (BLAST2 reports).
Comments : Note that the N parameter is not reported in gapped BLAST2.
: Calling n() on such reports will result in a call to num_hsps().
: The num_hsps() method will count the actual number of
: HSPs in the alignment listing, which may exceed N in
: some cases.
See Also : num_hsps()
Usage : $hit_object->p( [format] );
Purpose : Get the P-value for the best HSP of the given BLAST hit.
: (Note that P-values are not provided with NCBI Blast2 reports).
Example : $p = $sbjct->p;
: $p = $sbjct->p('exp'); # get exponent only.
: ($num, $exp) = $sbjct->p('parts'); # split sci notation into parts
Returns : Float or scientific notation number (the raw P-value, DEFAULT).
: Integer if format == 'exp' (the magnitude of the base 10 exponent).
: 2-element list (float, int) if format == 'parts' and P-value
: is in scientific notation (See Comments).
Argument : format: string of 'raw' | 'exp' | 'parts'
: 'raw' returns value given in report. Default. (1.2e-34)
: 'exp' returns exponent value only (34)
: 'parts' returns the decimal and exponent as a
: 2-element list (1.2, -34) (See Comments).
Throws : Warns if no P-value is defined. Uses expect instead.
Comments : Using the 'parts' argument is not recommended since it will not
: work as expected if the P-value is not in scientific notation.
: That is, floats are not converted into sci notation before
: splitting into parts.
See Also : expect(), significance(), Bio::Search::SearchUtils::get_exponent()
Usage : $hit_object->hsp( [string] );
Purpose : Get a single HSPI object for the present HitI object.

: $hspObj = $hit_object->hsp('best');
: $hspObj = $hit_object->hsp('worst');
Returns : Object reference for a Bio::Search::HSP::BlastHSP.pm object.
Argument : String (or no argument).
: No argument (default) = highest scoring HSP (same as 'best').
: 'best' or 'first' = highest scoring HSP.
: 'worst' or 'last' = lowest scoring HSP.
Throws : Exception if the HSPs have not been collected.
: Exception if an unrecognized argument is used.
See Also : hsps(), num_hsps()
Usage : $hit_object->logical_length( [seq_type] );
: (mostly intended for internal use).
Purpose : Get the logical length of the hit sequence.
: This is necessary since the number of identical/conserved residues
: can be in terms of peptide sequence space, yet the query and/or hit
: sequence are in nucleotide space.
Example : $len = $hit_object->logical_length();
Returns : Integer
Argument : seq_type = 'query' or 'hit' or 'sbjct' (default = 'query')
('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : n/a
Comments :
: In the case of BLAST flavors:
: For TBLASTN reports, the length of the aligned portion of the
: nucleotide hit sequence is divided by 3; for BLASTX reports,
: the length of the aligned portion of the nucleotide query
: sequence is divided by 3. For TBLASTX reports, the length of
: both hit and query sequence are converted.
:
: This is important for functions like frac_aligned_query()
: which need to operate in amino acid coordinate space when dealing
: with [T]BLAST[NX] type reports.
See Also : length(), frac_aligned_query(), frac_aligned_hit()
Usage : $hit_object->length_aln( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Get the total length of the aligned region for query or sbjct seq.
: This number will include all HSPs
Example : $len = $hit_object->length_aln(); # default = query
: $lenAln = $hit_object->length_aln('query');
Returns : Integer
Argument : seq_Type = 'query' or 'hit' or 'sbjct' (Default = 'query')
('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : Exception if the argument is not recognized.
Comments : This method will report the logical length of the alignment,
: meaning that for TBLAST[NX] reports, the length is reported
: using amino acid coordinate space (i.e., nucleotides / 3).
:
: This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If they have not
: already been tiled, they will be tiled first automatically..
: If you don't want the tiled data, iterate through each HSP
: calling length() on each (use hsps() to get all HSPs).
See Also : length(), frac_aligned_query(), frac_aligned_hit(), gaps(), Bio::Search::SearchUtils::tile_hsps(), Bio::Search::HSP::BlastHSP::length()
Usage : $hit_object->gaps( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Get the number of gaps in the aligned query, hit, or both sequences.
: Data is summed across all HSPs.
Example : $qgaps = $hit_object->gaps('query');
: $hgaps = $hit_object->gaps('hit');
: $tgaps = $hit_object->gaps(); # default = total (query + hit)
Returns : scalar context: integer
: array context without args: two-element list of integers
: (queryGaps, hitGaps)
: Array context can be forced by providing an argument of 'list' or 'array'.
:
: CAUTION: Calling this method within printf or sprintf is arrray context.
: So this function may not give you what you expect. For example:
: printf "Total gaps: %d", $hit->gaps();
: Actually returns a two-element array, so what gets printed
: is the number of gaps in the query, not the total
:
Argument : seq_type: 'query' | 'hit' or 'sbjct' | 'total' | 'list' (default = 'total')
('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : n/a
Comments : If you need data for each HSP, use hsps() and then interate
: through each HSP object.
: This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If they have not
: already been tiled, they will be tiled first automatically..
: Not relying on wantarray since that will fail in situations
: such as printf "%d", $hit->gaps() in which you might expect to
: be printing the total gaps, but evaluates to array context.
See Also : length_aln()
See documentation in Bio::Search::Hit::HitI::matches()
Usage : $sbjct->start( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Gets the start coordinate for the query, sbjct, or both sequences
: in the BlastHit object. If there is more than one HSP, the lowest start
: value of all HSPs is returned.
Example : $qbeg = $sbjct->start('query');
: $sbeg = $sbjct->start('hit');
: ($qbeg, $sbeg) = $sbjct->start();
Returns : scalar context: integer
: array context without args: list of two integers (queryStart, sbjctStart)
: Array context can be "induced" by providing an argument of 'list' or 'array'.
Argument : In scalar context: seq_type = 'query' or 'hit' or 'sbjct' (default = 'query')
('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : n/a
See Also : end(), range(), strand(),
Bio::Search::HSP::BlastHSP::start
Usage : $sbjct->end( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Gets the end coordinate for the query, sbjct, or both sequences
: in the BlastHit object. If there is more than one HSP,
the largest end
: value of all HSPs is returned.
Example : $qend = $sbjct->end('query');
: $send = $sbjct->end('hit');
: ($qend, $send) = $sbjct->end();
Returns : scalar context: integer
: array context without args: list of two integers
: (queryEnd, sbjctEnd)
: Array context can be "induced" by providing an argument
: of 'list' or 'array'.
Argument : In scalar context: seq_type = 'query' or 'sbjct'
: (case insensitive). If not supplied, 'query' is used.
Throws : n/a
See Also : start(), range(), strand()
Usage : $sbjct->range( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Gets the (start, end) coordinates for the query or sbjct sequence
: in the HSP alignment.
Example : ($qbeg, $qend) = $sbjct->range('query');
: ($sbeg, $send) = $sbjct->range('hit');
Returns : Two-element array of integers
Argument : seq_type = string, 'query' or 'hit' or 'sbjct' (default = 'query')
('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : n/a
See Also : start(), end()
Usage : $hit_object->frac_identical( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Get the overall fraction of identical positions across all HSPs.
: The number refers to only the aligned regions and does not
: account for unaligned regions in between the HSPs, if any.
Example : $frac_iden = $hit_object->frac_identical('query');
Returns : Float (2-decimal precision, e.g., 0.75).
Argument : seq_type: 'query' | 'hit' or 'sbjct' | 'total'
: default = 'query' (but see comments below).
: ('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : n/a
Comments :
: To compute the fraction identical, the logical length of the
: aligned portion of the sequence is used, meaning that
: in the case of BLAST flavors, for TBLASTN reports, the length of
: the aligned portion of the
: nucleotide hit sequence is divided by 3; for BLASTX reports,
: the length of the aligned portion of the nucleotide query
: sequence is divided by 3. For TBLASTX reports, the length of
: both hit and query sequence are converted.
: This is necessary since the number of identical residues is
: in terms of peptide sequence space.
:
: Different versions of Blast report different values for the total
: length of the alignment. This is the number reported in the
: denominators in the stats section:
: "Identical = 34/120 Positives = 67/120".
: NCBI BLAST uses the total length of the alignment (with gaps)
: WU-BLAST uses the length of the query sequence (without gaps).
:
: Therefore, when called with an argument of 'total',
: this method will report different values depending on the
: version of BLAST used. Total does NOT take into account HSP
: tiling, so it should not be used.
:
: To get the fraction identical among only the aligned residues,
: ignoring the gaps, call this method without an argument or
: with an argument of 'query' or 'hit'.
:
: If you need data for each HSP, use hsps() and then iterate
: through the HSP objects.
: This method requires that all HSPs be tiled. If they have not

Usage : $hit_object->frac_conserved( [seq_type] );
Purpose : Get the overall fraction of conserved positions across all HSPs.
: The number refers to only the aligned regions and does not
: account for unaligned regions in between the HSPs, if any.
Example : $frac_cons = $hit_object->frac_conserved('hit');
Returns : Float (2-decimal precision, e.g., 0.75).
Argument : seq_type: 'query' | 'hit' or 'sbjct' | 'total'
: default = 'query' (but see comments below).
: ('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
Throws : n/a
Comments :
: To compute the fraction conserved, the logical length of the
: aligned portion of the sequence is used, meaning that
: in the case of BLAST flavors, for TBLASTN reports, the length of
: the aligned portion of the
: nucleotide hit sequence is divided by 3; for BLASTX reports,

: or undef if query length is unknown to avoid division by 0.
Argument : n/a
Throws : n/a
