# Program remap

## Function

Display a sequence with restriction cut sites, translation etc

## Description

The Restriction Enzyme database (REBASE) is a collection of information about restriction enzymes and related proteins. It contains published and unpublished references, recognition and cleavage sites, isoschizomers, commercial availability, methylation sensitivity, crystal and sequence data. DNA methyltransferases, homing endonucleases, nicking enzymes, specificity subunits and control proteins are also included. Most recently, putative DNA methyltransferases and restriction enzymes, as predicted from analysis of genomic sequences, are also listed.

The home page of REBASE is: http://rebase.neb.com/

This program uses REBASE data to find the recognition sites and/or cut sites of restriction enzymes in a nucleic acid sequence.

This program displays the cut sites on both strands by default. It will optionally also display the translation of the sequence.

There are many options to change the style of display to aid in making clear presentations.

One potentially very useful option is '-flatreformat' that displays not only the cut sites which many other restriction cut-site programs will show, but also shows the recognition site.

## Usage

Here is a sample session with remap. We only look at a small section of the sequence to save space.

    % remap -notran -sbeg 1 -send 60
    Display a sequence with restriction cut sites, translation etc..
    Input sequence(s): embl:eclac
    Output file [eclac.remap]:
    Comma separated enzyme list [all]: taqi,bsu6i,acii,bsski
    Minimum recognition site length [4]:

Here is an example where all enzymes in the REBASE database are used:

    % remap -notran -sbeg 1 -send 60
    Display a sequence with restriction cut sites, translation etc..
    Input sequence(s): embl:eclac
    Output file [eclac.remap]:
    Comma separated enzyme list [all]:
    Minimum recognition site length [4]:

## Command line arguments

       Mandatory qualifiers:
      [-sequence]          seqall     Sequence database USA
       -enzymes            string     The name 'all' reads in all enzyme names
                                      from the REBASE database. You can specify
                                      enzymes by giving their names with commas
                                      between then, such as:
                                      'HincII,hinfI,ppiI,hindiii'.
                                      The case of the names is not important. You
                                      can specify a file of enzyme names to read
                                      in by giving the name of the file holding
                                      the enzyme names with a '@' character in
                                      front of it, for example, '@enz.list'.
                                      Blank lines and lines starting with a hash
                                      character or '!' are ignored and all other
                                      lines are concatenated together with a comma
                                      character ',' and then treated as the list
                                      of enzymes to search for.
                                      An example of a file of enzyme names is:
                                      ! my enzymes
                                      HincII, ppiII
                                      ! other enzymes
                                      hindiii
                                      HinfI
                                      PpiI
       -sitelen            integer    Minimum recognition site length
      [-outfile]           outfile    If you enter the name of a file here then
                                      this program will write the sequence details
                                      into that file.

                                      case is left alone.
                                      A set of regions is specified by a set of
                                      pairs of positions.
                                      The positions are integers.
                                      They are separated by any non-digit,
                                      non-alpha character.
                                      Examples of region specifications are:
                                      24-45, 56-78

                                      They are followed by any valid HTML font
                                      colour.

## Input file format

You can specifiy a file of ranges to display in uppercase by giving the '-uppercase' qualifier the value '@' followed by the name of the file containing the ranges. (eg: '-upper @myfile').

The format of the range file is:

- Comment lines start with '#' in the first column.
- Comment lines and blank lines are ignored.
- The line may start with white-space.
- There are two positive (integer) numbers per line separated by one or more space or TAB characters.
- The second number must be greater or equal to the first number.
- There can be optional text after the two numbers to annotate the line.
- White-space before or after the text is removed.

An example range file is:

    # this is my set of ranges
    12   23
     4   5       this is like 12-23, but smaller
    67   10348   interesting region

You can specifiy a file of ranges to highlight in a different colour when outputting in HTML format (using the '-html' qualifier) by giving the '-highlight' qualifier the value '@' followed by the name of the file containing the ranges. (eg: '-highlight @myfile').

The format of this file is very similar to the format of the above uppercase range file, except that the text after the start and end positions is used as the HTML colour name. This colour name is used 'as is' when specifying the colour in HTML in a '<FONT COLOR=xxx>' construct, (where 'xxx' is the name of the colour).

The standard names of HTML font colours are given in:
http://http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/types.html and http://www.ausmall.com.au/freegraf/ncolour2.htm and http://mindprod.com/htmlcolours.html (amongst other places).

An example highlight range file is:

    # this is my set of ranges
    12   23		red
     4   5		darkturquoise
    67   10348	#FFE4E1

## Output file format

The output file from the example above, where all enzymes were used, follows:

    ECLAC
    E.coli lactose operon with lacI, lacZ, lacY and lacA genes.

The name of the sequence is displayed, followed by the description of the sequence.

The formatted display of cut sites on the sequence follows, with the six-frame translation below it. The cut sites are indicated by a slash character '\' that points to the poition between the nucleotides where the cuts occur. Cuts by many enzymes at the same position are indicated by stacking the enzyme names on top of each other.

At the end the section header 'Enzymes that cut' is displayed followed by a list of the enzymes that cut the specified sequence and the number of times that they cut. For each enzyme that cuts, a list of isoschizomers of that enzyme (sharing the same recognition site pattern and cut sites) is given.

This is followed by lists of the enzymes that do cut, but which cut less often than the '-mincut' qualifier or more often than the '-maxcut' qualifier.

Any of the isoschizomers that are excluded from cutting, (either through restrictions such as the permitted number of cuts, blunt cutters only, single cutters only etc. or because their name has not been given in the input list of enzymes), will not be listed.

Then a list is displayed of the enzymes whose names were input and which match the other criteria ('-sitelen', '-blunt', '-sticky' or '-commercial') but which do not cut.

Finally the number of enzymes that were rejected from consideration because they do not match the '-sitelen', '-blunt', '-sticky' or '-commercial' criteria is displayed.

The '-flatreformat' qualifier changes the display to emphasise the recognition site of the restriction enzyme, which is indicated by a row of '=' characters. The cut site if pointed to by a '>' or '<' character and if the cut site is not within or imemdiately adjacent to the recognition site, they are linked by a row or '.' characters.

The name of the enzyme is displayed above (or below when the reverse sense site if displayed) the recognition site. The name of the enzyme is also displayed above the cut site if this occurs on a different display line to the recognition site (i.e. if it wraps onto the next line of sequence).

An example of this display follows with the translation turned off to save space:

    -sbeg 1 -send 60 -flat -notran
