Bio::Tools::Run::Coil(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Bio::Tools::Run::Coil(3)

Bio::Tools::Run::Coil - wrapper for ncoils program

  # Build a Coil factory
  my $factory = Bio::Tools::Run::Coil->new($params);

  # Pass the factory a Bio::Seq object
  # @feats is an array of Bio::SeqFeature::Generic objects
  my @feats = $factory->run($seq);

This module is a wrapper for the ncoils program available via <http://www.russell.embl-heidelberg.de/coils/coils.tar.gz> for predicting coiled coils in protein sequences.

By default it looks for an executable called ncoils and data/parameter files in the directory specified by the COILSDIR environmental variable.

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

bioperl-l@bioperl.org

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the web:
