RNAHEAT(1) User Commands RNAHEAT(1) NAME RNAheat - manual page for RNAheat 2.7.0 SYNOPSIS RNAheat [OPTIONS] [<input0>] [<input1>]... DESCRIPTION RNAheat 2.7.0 calculate specific heat of RNAs Reads RNA sequences from stdin or input files and calculates their spe- cific heat in the temperature range t1 to t2, from the partition func- tion by numeric differentiation. The result is written to stdout as a list of pairs of temperature in C and specific heat in kcal/(mol*K). The program will continue to read new sequences until a line consisting of the single character '@' or an end of file condition is encountered. -h, --help Print help and exit --detailed-help Print help, including all details and hidden options, and exit --full-help Print help, including hidden options, and exit -V, --version Print version and exit -v, --verbose Be verbose. (default=off) Lower the log level setting such that even INFO messages are passed through. I/O Options: Command line options for input and output (pre-)processing -i, --infile=filename Read a file instead of reading from stdin The default behavior of RNAheat is to read input from stdin or the file(s) that follow(s) the RNAheat command. Using this para- meter the user can specify input file names where data is read from. Note, that any additional files supplied to RNAheat are still processed as well. -j, --jobs[=number] Split batch input into jobs and start processing in parallel us- ing multiple threads. A value of 0 indicates to use as many par- allel threads as computation cores are available. (default=`0') Default processing of input data is performed in a serial fash- ion, i.e. one sequence at a time. Using this switch, a user can instead start the computation for many sequences in the input in parallel. RNAheat will create as many parallel computation slots as specified and assigns input sequences of the input file(s) to the available slots. Note, that this increases memory consump- tion since input alignments have to be kept in memory until an empty compute slot is available and each running job requires its own dynamic programming matrices. --unordered Do not try to keep output in order with input while parallel processing is in place. (default=off) When parallel input processing (--jobs flag) is enabled, the or- der in which input is processed depends on the host machines job scheduler. Therefore, any output to stdout or files generated by this program will most likely not follow the order of the corre- sponding input data set. The default of RNAheat is to use a spe- cialized data structure to still keep the results output in or- der with the input data. However, this comes with a trade-off in terms of memory consumption, since all output must be kept in memory for as long as no chunks of consecutive, ordered output are available. By setting this flag, RNAheat will not buffer in- dividual results but print them as soon as they have been compu- tated. --noconv Do not automatically substitute nucleotide "T" with "U". (default=off) --auto-id Automatically generate an ID for each sequence. (default=off) The default mode of RNAheat is to automatically determine an ID from the input sequence data if the input file format allows to do that. Sequence IDs are usually given in the FASTA header of input sequences. If this flag is active, RNAheat ignores any IDs retrieved from the input and automatically generates an ID for each sequence. This ID consists of a prefix and an increasing number. This flag can also be used to add a FASTA header to the output even if the input has none. --id-prefix=STRING Prefix for automatically generated IDs (as used in output file names) (default=`sequence') If this parameter is set, each sequences' FASTA id will be pre- fixed with the provided string. FASTA ids then take the form ">prefix_xxxx" where xxxx is the sequence number. Note: Setting this parameter implies --auto-id. --id-delim=CHAR Change the delimiter between prefix and increasing number for automatically generated IDs (as used in output file names). (default=`_') This parameter can be used to change the default delimiter "_" between the prefix string and the increasing number for automat- ically generated ID. --id-digits=INT Specify the number of digits of the counter in automatically generated alignment IDs. (default=`4') When alignments IDs are automatically generated, they receive an increasing number, starting with 1. This number will always be left-padded by leading zeros, such that the number takes up a certain width. Using this parameter, the width can be specified to the users need. We allow numbers in the range [1:18]. This option implies --auto-id. --id-start=LONG Specify the first number in automatically generated alignment IDs. (default=`1') When sequence IDs are automatically generated, they receive an increasing number, usually starting with 1. Using this parame- ter, the first number can be specified to the users require- ments. Note: negative numbers are not allowed. Note: Setting this parameter implies to ignore any IDs retrieved from the in- put data, i.e. it activates the --auto-id flag. --log-level=level Set log level threshold. (default=`2') By default, any log messages are filtered such that only warn- ings (level 2) or errors (level 3) are printed. This setting al- lows for specifying the log level threshold, where higher values result in fewer information. Log-level 5 turns off all messages, even errors and other critical information. --log-file[=filename] Print log messages to a file instead of stderr. (default=`RNA- heat.log') --log-time Include time stamp in log messages. (default=off) --log-call Include file and line of log calling function. (default=off) Algorithms: Select additional algorithms which should be included in the calculations. --Tmin=t1 Lowest temperature. (default=`0') --Tmax=t2 Highest temperature. (default=`100') --stepsize=FLOAT Calculate partition function every stepsize degrees C. (default=`1.') -m, --ipoints=ipoints The program fits a parabola to 2*ipoints+1 data points to calcu- late 2nd derivatives. Increasing this parameter produces a smoother curve. (default=`2') -c, --circ Assume a circular (instead of linear) RNA molecule. (default=off) -g, --gquad Incoorporate G-Quadruplex formation into the structure predic- tion algorithm. (default=off) Structure Constraints: Command line options to interact with the structure constraints feature of this program --maxBPspan=INT Set the maximum base pair span. (default=`-1') Energy Parameters: Energy parameter sets can be adapted or loaded from user-pro- vided input files -P, --paramFile=paramfile Read energy parameters from paramfile, instead of using the de- fault parameter set. Different sets of energy parameters for RNA and DNA should ac- company your distribution. See the RNAlib documentation for de- tails on the file format. The placeholder file name 'DNA' can be used to load DNA parameters without the need to actually specify any input file. -4, --noTetra Do not include special tabulated stabilizing energies for tri-, tetra- and hexaloop hairpins. (default=off) Mostly for testing. --salt=DOUBLE Set salt concentration in molar (M). Default is 1.021M. Model Details: Tweak the energy model and pairing rules additionally using the following parameters -d, --dangles=INT How to treat "dangling end" energies for bases adjacent to he- lices in free ends and multi-loops (default=`2') With -d2 dangling energies will be added for the bases adjacent to a helix on both sides in any case -d0 ignores dangling ends altogether (mostly for debugging). --noLP Produce structures without lonely pairs (helices of length 1). (default=off) For partition function folding this only disallows pairs that can only occur isolated. Other pairs may still occasionally oc- cur as helices of length 1. --noGU Do not allow GU pairs. (default=off) --noClosingGU Do not allow GU pairs at the end of helices. (default=off) --nsp=STRING Allow other pairs in addition to the usual AU,GC,and GU pairs. Its argument is a comma separated list of additionally allowed pairs. If the first character is a "-" then AB will imply that AB and BA are allowed pairs, e.g. --nsp="-GA" will allow GA and AG pairs. Nonstandard pairs are given 0 stacking energy. --energyModel=INT Set energy model. Rarely used option to fold sequences from the artificial ABCD... alphabet, where A pairs B, C-D etc. Use the energy parameters for GC (--energyModel 1) or AU (--energyModel 2) pairs. --helical-rise=FLOAT Set the helical rise of the helix in units of Angstrom. (default=`2.8') Use with caution! This value will be re-set automatically to 3.4 in case DNA parameters are loaded via -P DNA and no further value is provided. --backbone-length=FLOAT Set the average backbone length for looped regions in units of Angstrom. (default=`6.0') Use with caution! This value will be re-set automatically to 6.76 in case DNA parameters are loaded via -P DNA and no further value is provided.
