[Bioperl-l] parsing BLASTX

[Brian Osborne]

Javier,

Yes, you should write your own script. Bioperl is really more of a “toolbox”
for writing scripts than a collection of scripts, although you can check out
the available scripts at http://bioperl.org/Core/Latest/bioscripts.html
(“bioscripts.pod”). Use that first script in the HOWTO - all you need to do
is add a “#!/bin/perl” line at the top of your script, use the correct name
for your BLASTX file instead of “report.bls”, and you should have a working
script. You must have Perl and Bioperl installed, forgive me for stating the
obvious.

Hi!

I am an absolute begginer in the use of perl and bioperl modules. I am
interested in parsing a flile resulted from BLASTX. I have installed the
Bio:SearchIO modules, but after reading the HOWTO I did no get a clear idea
about what to do. Am I supossed to write my own scripts? How can I run the
SearchIO modules?
I would appreciate very much a step by step "protocol" for parsing the
blastx file, from the begining.

Thank you very much in advance.

Javier
