gendb [options] <numseqs>
gendb generates the specified number of sequences using a Markov model. The sequence lengths are selected uniformly at random within the range specified by --minseq and --maxseq.
No inputs are required.
Writes the sequences in FASTA format to standard output.
| Option | Parameter | Description | Default Behaviour |
|---|---|---|---|
| General Options | |||
| --bfile | file | File containg a background model in background model format. | |
| --seed | s | Seed for random number generator. | |
| --minseq | min | Minimum sequence length. | The minimum sequence length is 50. |
| --maxseq | max | Maximum sequence length. | The maximum sequence length is 2,000. |
| --order | n | Use Markov model of order n. | The order of the background model if one is provided, otherwise 0. |
| --dummy | Print a "dummy" sequence record before the generated sequences. The "dummy" sequence record is a a FASTA header line listing the gendb parameters but not followed by any sequence lines. | ||
| --type | 0|1|2|3|4 | Allowed types are:
|
Protein sequences are generated. |
