gfClient host port seqDir in.fa out.psl
Manual
This tool is part of UCSC Genome Browser's utilities.
where
host is the name of the machine running the gfServer
port is the same as you started the gfServer with
seqDir is the path of the .nib or .2bit files relative to the current dir
(note these are needed by the client as well as the server)
in.fa is a fasta format file. May contain multiple records
out.psl where to put the output
options:
-t=type Database type. Type is one of:
dna - DNA sequence
prot - protein sequence
dnax - DNA sequence translated in six frames to protein
The default is dna
-q=type Query type. Type is one of:
dna - DNA sequence
rna - RNA sequence
prot - protein sequence
dnax - DNA sequence translated in six frames to protein
rnax - DNA sequence translated in three frames to protein
-prot Synonymous with -d=prot -q=prot
-dots=NOutput a dot every N query sequences
-noheadSuppresses psl five line header
-minScore=N sets minimum score. This is twice the matches minus the
mismatches minus some sort of gap penalty. Default is 30
-minIdentity=N Sets minimum sequence identity (in percent). Default is
90 for nucleotide searches, 25 for protein or translated
protein searches.
-out=typeControls output file format. Type is one of:
psl - Default. Tab separated format without actual sequence
pslx - Tab separated format with sequence
axt - blastz-associated axt format
maf - multiz-associated maf format
sim4 - similar to sim4 format
wublast - similar to wublast format
blast - similar to NCBI blast format
blast8- NCBI blast tabular format
blast9 - NCBI blast tabular format with comments
-maxIntron=N Sets maximum intron size. Default is 750000
