There is now a writePairwiseAlignments() function (in Biostrings 2.25.8) for doing this. It produces a file in the "pair" format (as described on the EMBOSS website, at the URL you sent earlier): > library(Biostrings) > pattern <- DNAString("CGTACGTAACGTTCGT") > subject <- DNAString("CGTCGTCGTCCGTAA") > x1 <- pairwiseAlignment(pattern, subject) > x1 Global PairwiseAlignmentsSingleSubject (1 of 1) pattern: [1] CGTACGTAACGTTCGT subject: [1] CGT-CGT--CGTCCGT score: -32.11822 > writePairwiseAlignments(x1, block.width=10) # 'block.width' default is 50 ######################################## # Program: Biostrings (version 2.25.8), a Bioconductor package # Rundate: Wed Jul 18 23:05:46 2012 ######################################## #======================================= # # Aligned_sequences: 2 # 1: P1 # 2: S1 # Matrix: NA # Gap_penalty: 14.0 # Extend_penalty: 4.0 # # Length: 18 # Identity: 12/18 (66.7%) # Similarity: NA/18 (NA%) # Gaps: 5/18 (27.8%) # Score: -32.11822 # # #======================================= P1 1 CGTACGTAAC 10 ||| ||| | S1 1 CGT-CGT--C 7 P1 11 GTTCGT-- 16 || ||| S1 8 GTCCGTAA 15 #--------------------------------------- #--------------------------------------- Only lightly tested.

Hi Herv?, thanks! This looks great. I have a question though: How can I install the latest version of Biostrings? When I install with: source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") biocLite("Biostrings") I get Version 2.22.0 ? ;) Cheers Martin Am Donnerstag, 19.

To install BioC devel, see this link: http://bioconductor.org/developers/useDevel/ Note that today Biostrings 2.25.7 is the latest version available thru biocLite(): http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.11/bioc/html/Biostrings.html If everything goes well, 2.25.8 will become available tomorrow morning around 10 am (Seattle time).

Hi everyone, Could you please advise how to boxplot a big list (~2million *70) into a small pdf file? I did it using R boxplot and it generated a pdf file in >20MB that is hard to open. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Best, John [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi John, On 7/19/2012 3:45 PM, John linux-user wrote: > Hi everyone, > > Could you please advise how to boxplot a big list (~2million *70) into a small pdf file? I did it using R boxplot and it generated a pdf file in>20MB that is hard to open. Any suggestions will be appreciated. There are two things that come to my mind. First, do you really need to use all those data? I would bet that a sample of say 1e5 from each list item would give essentially the same picture. Alternatively, you might consider using a bitmapped graphic rather than a vector graphic. I am assuming here that you have lots of outlier points (outside the whiskers) that are slowing things down. You could use a png, and as long as you aren't resizing it should look OK.

If the problem is tons of outliers, you could consider setting range=0, which will cause the full range of data to be included in the whiskers...

Hi everyone, Could you please advise how to boxplot a big list (~2million *70) into a small pdf file? I did it using R boxplot and it generated a pdf file in >20MB that is hard to open. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I installed 2.25.8 and it seems to work fine. I'll test it with my scripts that process sequencing data and report any problems. Am Donnerstag, 19.
