Bio::Search::Result::HMMERResult - A Result object for HMMER results use Bio::Search::Result::HMMERResult; my $result = new Bio::Search::Result::HMMERResult ( -hmm_name => 'pfam', -sequence_file => 'roa1.pep', -hits => \@hits); # generally we use Bio::SearchIO to build these objects use Bio::SearchIO; my $in = new Bio::SearchIO(-format => 'hmmer', -file => 'result.hmmer'); while( my $result = $in->next_result ) { print $result->query_name, " ", $result->algorithm, " ", $result->num_hits(), " hits\n"; } This is a specialization of Bio::Search::Result::GenericResult. There are a few extra methods, specifically sequence_file, hmm_name, next_models, and models.
