MkDom2

PASSED

MkDom2 is the program used routinely to build each new release of ProDom. The algorithm relies on the assumption that the shortest amino acid sequence corresponds to a single domain, and may be used as a query to screen the database with the psi-blast program, in order to cluster homologous domains. To build ProDom, we run this program on the UniProt (swissprot/trembl) Knowledge Database, but it can be run on any set of protein sequences in a fasta file.

Inputs:

  • a file containing the sequences to analyse in fasta format
  • psi-blast parameters. Default will be -j 10 -e 0.01 -h 0.01. If you want to change something please enter INTER= value to change -j option, E_EXPECT=value for -e option and H_EXPECT=value for -h option.

Outputs:

  • the log file
  • the alignment file of the sequences in srs format
  • the results of the analysis in xdom format
  • the project file used to launch xdom faster
  • A perl script is available here to run this webservice from your computer. Please install SOAP Lite before.

                Test #1: mkdomTest

                This is a test for the MkDom2 webservice. It uses perl and SOAPlite. It includes a test using a short fasta file (7 sequences) as input and checks whether :

                • the output is not empty
                • the first output element is in correct xdom format and contains 7 elements
                • the second output element (the log file) indicates a normal end of the program
                • the third output element is in correct srs format and contains 4 domain families
                • the last output element is a valid url to webdom (domain visualization)
