ProtMatrix is designed to provide some basic methods when working with position
scoring (weight) matrices related to protein sequences. A protein PSM consists
of 20 vectors with 20 frequencies (one per amino acid per position). This is
the minimum information you should provide to construct a PSM object. The
vectors can be provided as strings with frequencies where the frequency is
{0..a} and a=1. This is the way MEME compressed representation of a matrix and
it is quite useful when working with relational DB. If arrays are provided as
an input (references to arrays actually) they can be any number, real or
integer (frequency or count).
When creating the object the constructor will check for positions that equal 0.
If such is found it will increase the count for all positions by one and
recalculate the frequency. Potential bug - if you are using frequencies and
one of the positions is 0 it will change significantly. However, you should
never have frequency that equals 0.
Throws an exception if: You mix as an input array and string (for example A
matrix is given as array, C - as string). The position vector is (0,0,0,0).
One of the probability vectors is shorter than the rest.
Summary of the methods I use most frequently (details below):
iupac - return IUPAC compliant consensus as a string
score - Returns the score as a real number
IC - information content. Returns a real number
id - identifier. Returns a string
accession - accession number. Returns a string
next_pos - return the sequence probably for each letter, IUPAC
symbol, IUPAC probability and simple sequence
consenus letter for this position. Rewind at the end. Returns a hash.
pos - current position get/set. Returns an integer.
regexp - construct a regular expression based on IUPAC consensus.
For example AGWV will be [Aa][Gg][AaTt][AaCcGg]
width - site width
get_string - gets the probability vector for a single base as a string.
get_array - gets the probability vector for a single base as an array.
get_logs_array - gets the log-odds vector for a single base as an array.
New methods, which might be of interest to anyone who wants to store PSM in a
relational database without creating an entry for each position is the ability
to compress the PSM vector into a string with losing usually less than 1% of
the data. this can be done with:
my $str=$matrix->get_compressed_freq('A');
or
my $str=$matrix->get_compressed_logs('A');
Loading from a database should be done with new, but is not yet implemented.
However you can still uncompress such string with:
my @arr=Bio::Matrix::PSM::_uncompress_string ($str,1,1); for PSM
or
my @arr=Bio::Matrix::PSM::_uncompress_string ($str,1000,2); for log odds
