                                   syco 



Function

   Synonymous codon usage Gribskov statistic plot

Description

   syco is a frame-specific gene finder that tries to recognize protein
   coding sequences by virtue of the similarity of their codon usage to a
   codon frequency table.

   syco finds regions of each forward reading frame of a nucleic acid
   sequence that show strong codon preference. syco is useful for
   locating protein coding regions, determining their reading frames,
   estimating the level of expression of a gene, and locating nucleic
   acid sequencing errors.

   It is essential to use the correct codon usage file for the species.

Usage

   Here is a sample session with syco


% syco -plot -cfile Epseae.cut

Data files

   Codon usage table files are read in.

   EMBOSS data files are distributed with the application and stored in
   the standard EMBOSS data directory, which is defined by the EMBOSS
   environment variable EMBOSS_DATA.

   To see the available EMBOSS data files, run:

% embossdata -showall

   To fetch one of the data files (for example 'Exxx.dat') into your
   current directory for you to inspect or modify, run:

% embossdata -fetch -file Exxx.dat

   Users can provide their own data files in their own directories.
   Project specific files can be put in the current directory, or for
   tidier directory listings in a subdirectory called ".embossdata".
   Files for all EMBOSS runs can be put in the user's home directory, or
   again in a subdirectory called ".embossdata".

   The directories are searched in the following order:
     * . (your current directory)
     * .embossdata (under your current directory)
     * ~/ (your home directory)
     * ~/.embossdata

Notes

   None.

References

   None.

Warnings

   The default codon usage table file is the human Ehum.cut - caution:
   this may well not be the correct species.

Diagnostic Error Messages

   None.

Exit status

   It always exits with status 0.

Known bugs

   None.
