与之前的blast相比,新的blast+将blastn,blastx等合作与blastall命令分隔开来,对各个命令的参数定制更加方便

个人在使用blastn的过程中总结了一些自认为常用的参数,总结如下:

blastn -db database_name -query input_file -out output_file -evalue evalue -max_target_seqs num_sequences -num_threads int_value -outfmt format format_string

blastn -db database_name -query input_file -out output_file -evalue evalue -max_target_seqs num_sequences -num_threads int_value -outfmt format "7 qacc sacc evalue length pident"

例如:

blastn -db plant_rna -query test.fa -out test.out -evalue 0.00001 -max_target_seqs 5 -num_threads 4 -outfmt format "7 qacc sacc evalue length pident"

blastn:这个不用说了吧,核酸对核酸的比对

-db: 指定blast搜索用的数据库,详见上篇文章

-query:用来查询的输入序列,fasta格式

-out:输出结果文件

-evalue: 设置e值cutoff

-max_target_seqs:设置最多的目标序列匹配数(以前我都用-b 5 -v 5,理解不对请指教)

-num_threads:指定多少个cpu运行任务(依赖于你的系统,同于以前的-a参数)

-outfmt format "7 qacc sacc evalue length pident" :这个是新BLAST+中最拉风的功能了,直接控制输出格式,不用再用parser啦, 7表示带注释行的tab格式的输出,可以自定义要输出哪些内容,用空格分格跟在7的后面,并把所有的输出控制用双引号括起来,其中qacc查询序列的acc,sacc表示目标序列的acc,evalue即是e值,length即是匹配的长度,pident即是序列相同的百分比,其他可用的特征(红色字体)如下:

*** Formatting options
-outfmt
   alignment view options:
     0 = pairwise,
     1 = query-anchored showing identities,
     2 = query-anchored no identities,
     3 = flat query-anchored, show identities,
     4 = flat query-anchored, no identities,
     5 = XML Blast output,
     6 = tabular,
     7 = tabular with comment lines,
     8 = Text ASN.1,
     9 = Binary ASN.1
    10 = Comma-separated values

   Options 6, 7, and 10 can be additionally configured to produce
   a custom format specified by space delimited format specifiers.
   The supported format specifiers are:
               When not provided, the default value is:
   'qseqid sseqid pident length mismatch gapopen qstart qend sstart send
   evalue bitscore', which is equivalent to the keyword 'std'
   Default = `0'
