Search Results for "effect"

The package provides SVM models to be used with SVMlight (http://svmlight.joachims.org/) for drawing a consensus out of individual 3rd-party predictions about the effect of mutations. The 3rd party tools are SIFT, Polyphen2, SNPs&GO and Mutation Assessor. The package also provides a series of Perl modules and scripts to assist in the preparation of data. The modules can be used to build custom tools and pipelines, whereas the scripts provide basic executable implementations based on the modules. ...

...It can handle gaps and ambiguities in different ways. Gaps can be: - all used; - all ignored; - ignored only at the ends of the sequences, in a pairwise manner; - ignored only at the ends, but now globally (in effect trimming the whole alignment to the farthest sequences from the ends). Ambiguities (things like R, Y, N, W, etc. in a DNA sequence) can be treated like: - consider ambiguities as always different; - consider ambiguity as partially different (e.g. R would be 0.5 different from A or G); - ignore ambiguities in each pairwise comparison; - remove all columns, globally, that show any ambiguity. ...
