query_entity_AlignmentTree

Query the entity AlignmentTree.

An alignment arranges a group of protein sequences so that they match. Each alignment is associated with a phylogenetic tree that describes how the sequences developed and their evolutionary distance. The actual tree and alignment FASTA are stored in separate flat files. The Kbase will maintain a set of alignments and associated trees. The majority of these will be based on protein sequences. We will not have a comprehensive set but we will have tens of thousands of such alignments, and we view them as an imporant resource to support annotation. The alignments/trees will include the tools and parameters used to construct them. Access to the underlying sequences and trees in a form convenient to existing tools will be supported.

Example:

    query_entity_AlignmentTree -a

Command-Line Options

-is field,value

Limit the results to entities where the given field has the given value.

-like field,value

Limit the results to entities where the given field is LIKE (in the sql sense) the given value.

-op operator,field,value

Limit the results to entities where the given field is related to the given value based on the given operator.

The operators supported are as follows. We provide text based alternatives to the comparison operators so that extra quoting is not required to keep the command-line shell from confusing them with shell I/O redirection operators.

< or lt

> or gt

<= or le

>= or ge

=

LIKE

-a

Return all fields.

-h

Display a list of the fields available for use.

-fields field-list

Choose a set of fields to return. Field-list is a comma-separated list of strings. The following fields are available:

alignment_method

alignment_parameters

alignment_properties

tree_method

tree_parameters

tree_properties

Output Format

The standard output is a tab-delimited file containing a column for each requested field.
