1 Galaxy tool to back-translate a protein alignment to nucleotides
2 ================================================================
3
4 This tool is copyright 2012-2015 by Peter Cock, The James Hutton Institute
5 (formerly SCRI, Scottish Crop Research Institute), UK. All rights reserved.
6 See the licence text below (MIT licence).
7
8 This tool is a short Python script (using Biopython library functions) to
9 load a protein alignment, and matching nucleotide FASTA file of unaligned
10 sequences, which are threaded onto the protein alignment in order to produce
11 a codon aware nucleotide alignment - which can be viewed as a back translation.
12
13 This tool is available from the Galaxy Tool Shed at:
14
15 * http://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/peterjc/align_back_trans
16
17 The underlying Python script can also be used outside of Galaxy, for
18 details run::
19
20 $ python align_back_trans.py
21
22 Automated Installation
23 ======================
24
25 This should be straightforward using the Galaxy Tool Shed, which should be
26 able to automatically install the dependency on Biopython, and then install
27 this tool and run its unit tests.
28
29
30 Manual Installation
31 ===================
32
33 There are just two files to install to use this tool from within Galaxy:
34
35 * ``align_back_trans.py`` (the Python script)
36 * ``align_back_trans.xml`` (the Galaxy tool definition)
37
38 The suggested location is in a dedicated ``tools/align_back_trans`` folder.
39
40 You will also need to modify the ``tools_conf.xml`` file to tell Galaxy to offer
41 the tool. One suggested location is in the multiple alignments section. Simply
42 add the line::
43
44 <tool file="align_back_trans/align_back_trans.xml" />
45
46 You will also need to install Biopython 1.62 or later.
47
48 If you wish to run the unit tests, also move/copy the ``test-data/`` files
49 under Galaxy's ``test-data/`` folder. Then::
50
51 ./run_tests.sh -id align_back_trans
52
53 That's it.

63 v0.0.2 - Optionally check the translation is consistent
64 v0.0.3 - First official release
65 v0.0.4 - Simplified XML to apply input format to output data.
66 - Fixed error message when sequence length not a multiple of three.
67 v0.0.5 - More explicit error messages when seqences lengths do not match.
68 - Tool definition now embeds citation information.
69 v0.0.6 - Reorder XML elements (internal change only).
70 - Use ``format_source=...`` tag.
71 - Planemo for Tool Shed upload (``.shed.yml``, internal change only).

76 Developers
77 ==========
78
79 This script was initially developed on this repository:
80 https://github.com/peterjc/picobio/blob/master/align/align_back_trans.py
81
82 With the addition of a Galaxy wrapper, developement moved here:
83 https://github.com/peterjc/pico_galaxy/tree/master/tools/align_back_trans
84
85 For pushing a release to the test or main "Galaxy Tool Shed", use the following
86 Planemo commands (which requires you have set your Tool Shed access details in
87 ``~/.planemo.yml`` and that you have access rights on the Tool Shed)::
88
89 $ planemo shed_update -t testtoolshed --check_diff ~/repositories/pico_galaxy/tools/align_back_trans/
90 ...
91
92 or::
93
94 $ planemo shed_update -t toolshed --check_diff ~/repositories/pico_galaxy/tools/align_back_trans/
95 ...
96
97 To just build and check the tar ball, use::
98
99 $ planemo shed_upload --tar_only ~/repositories/pico_galaxy/tools/align_back_trans/
100 ...
101 $ tar -tzf shed_upload.tar.gz
102 test-data/demo_nucs.fasta
103 test-data/demo_nucs_trailing_stop.fasta
104 test-data/demo_prot_align.fasta
105 test-data/demo_nuc_align.fasta
