I want to parse BLAST, how do I do this?
As of version 1.1, BioPerl only supports one approach - the Bio::SearchIO interface. There are other BLAST parsing modules in the
package, but they remain just to support older legacy code. Bio::SearchIO supports:
- BLAST
- MegaBLAST (PSL)
- PSIBLAST
- HMMER
- WABA
- BLASTZ (AXT)
- exonerate
- SIM4
- Wise tools
- FASTA reports
It is strongly recommended you read the HOWTO:SearchIO for more information.
