✨ NAME ✨

plotcon — plot conservation of a sequence alignment 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

plotcon -sequences seqset [-scorefile matrix] -winsize integer
        -graph xygraph

plotcon -help

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

plotcon is a command line program straight out of EMBOSS (“the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite”). bestie it is literally part of the "Alignment:Multiple" command group(s), that's her whole clique 👑

⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

💜 Input section

  • -sequences seqset — file containing a sequence alignment. that's the whole vibe, the input, the moment 🫶
  • -scorefile matrix — this is the scoring matrix file used when comparing sequences. by default it's the file EBLOSUM62 (for proteins) or the file EDNAFULL (for nucleic sequences). these files live in the data directory of your EMBOSS installation, no cap 📂✨

🔥 Required section

  • -winsize integer — number of columns to average alignment quality over. the larger this value is, the smoother the plot will be. default value: 4. lowkey she loves a smooth plot 😭💖

🌈 Output section

  • -graph xygraph — yeah that's it, that's the option, she takes an xygraph and gives you the plot 👑

💀 BUGS 💀
