Description
Search a FASTA file against a library of Pfam HMMs
Required Modules
Serial
- pfamscan
System Variables
- HPC_{{#uppercase:pfamscan}}_DIR - installation directory
Additional Information
On our system the pfamscan module is an alias for the hmmer module as we installed pfamscan within hmmer.
You don't have to provide the '-dir' argument to the pfam_scan.pl command as we configured it to use the default location of the most current Pfam reference data release at '/ufrc/data/reference/reference/pfam/current/'.
