qualifiers for parameter: sequence
Similarity scoring Matrix file
This is the scoring matrix file used when comparing
sequences. By default it is the file 'EBLOSUM62' (for proteins) or
the file 'EDNAFULL' (for nucleic sequences). These files are
found in the 'data' directory of the EMBOSS installation.
The number or the name of the reference
sequence
If you give the number in the alignment or the name of a
sequence, it will be taken to be the reference sequence. The
reference sequence is always show in full and is the one against
which all the other sequences are compared. If this is set to 0
then the consensus sequence will be used as the reference
sequence. By default the consensus sequence is used as the
reference sequence.
Display the reference sequence at the bottom
If this is true then the reference sequence is displayed at
the bottom of the alignment as well as at the top.

Show similar residues in lower-case
If this is set True, then when -show is set to
'Similarities' or 'Non-identities' and a residue is similar but
not identical to the reference sequence residue, it will be
changed to lower-case. If -show is set to 'All' then
non-identical, non-similar residues will be changed to lower-case.
If this is False then no change to the case of the residues is
made on the basis of their similarity to the reference sequence.
Display the consensus line
If this is true then the consensus line is displayed.
Regions to put in uppercase (eg: 4-57,78-94)
Regions to put in uppercase.
If this is left blank, then the sequence case is left alone.
A set of regions is specified by a set of pairs of positions.
The positions are integers.
They are separated by any non-digit, non-alpha character.
Examples of region specifications are:
24-45, 56-78
1:45, 67=99;765..888
1,5,8,10,23,45,57,99
Number the sequences
If this option is true then a line giving the positions in
the alignment is displayed every 10 characters above the
alignment.
Display ruler
If this option is true then a ruler line marking every 5th
and 10th character in the alignment is displayed.
Width of sequence to display
Width of sequence to display
Length of margin for sequence names
This sets the length of the left-hand margin for sequence
names. If the margin is set at 0 then no margin and no names are
displayed. If the margin is set to a value that is less than the
length of a sequence name then the sequence name is displayed
truncated to the length of the margin. If the margin is set to -1
then the minimum margin width that will allow all the sequence
names to be displayed in full plus a space at the end of the name
will automatically be selected.
Use HTML formatting
Use HTML formatting
Regions to colour in HTML (eg: 4-57 red 78-94
green)
Regions to colour if formatting for HTML.
If this is left blank, then the sequence is left alone.
A set of regions is specified by a set of pairs of positions.
The positions are integers.
They are followed by any valid HTML font colour.
Examples of region specifications are:
24-45 blue 56-78 orange
1-100 green 120-156 red
A file of ranges to colour (one range per line) can be specified
as '@filename'.
Plurality check % for consensus
Set a cut-off for the % of positive scoring matches below
which there is no consensus. The default plurality is taken as 50%
of the total weight of all the sequences in the alignment.
Threshold above which the consensus is given
in uppercase
Sets the threshold for the scores of the positive matches
above which the consensus is in upper-case and below which the
consensus is in lower-case. By default this is set to be half
of the (weight-adjusted) number of sequences in the alignment.
Required % of identities at a position for
consensus
Provides the facility of setting the required number of
identities at a position for it to give a consensus. Therefore, if
this is set to 100% only columns of identities contribute to the
consensus.
