module Bio::Blast::Remote::Genomenet

Description ↑

The Bio::Blast::Remote::GenomeNet class contains methods for running remote BLAST searches on GenomeNet (blast.genome.jp/).

Usage ↑

require 'bio'

# To run an actual BLAST analysis:
#   1. create a BLAST factory
blast_factory = Bio::Blast.remote('blastp', 'nr-aa',
                                  '-e 0.0001', 'genomenet')
#or:
blast_factory = Bio::Blast::Remote.genomenet('blastp', 'nr-aa',
                                             '-e 0.0001')

#   2. run the actual BLAST by querying the factory
report = blast_factory.query(sequence_text)

# Then, to parse the report, see Bio::Blast::Report

Creates a remote BLAST factory using GenomeNet. Returns Bio::Blast object.

Note for future improvement: In the future, it might return Bio::Blast::Remote::GenomeNet or other object.
