**Background**

Many effector proteins from oomycete plant pathogens for manipulating the host
have been found to contain a signal peptide followed by a conserved RXLR motif
(Arg, any amino acid, Leu, Arg), and then sometimes EER (Glu, Glu, Arg). There
are striking parallels with the malarial host-targeting signal (Plasmodium
export element, or "Pexel" for short).

-----

**What it does**

Takes a protein sequence FASTA file as input, and produces a simple tabular
file as output with one line per protein, and two columns giving the sequence
ID and the predicted class. This is typically just whether or not it had the
selected RXLR motif (Y or N).

-----

**Bhattacharjee et al. (2006) RXLR Model**

Looks for the oomycete motif RXLR as described in Bhattacharjee et al. (2006).

Matches must have a SignalP Hidden Markov Model (HMM) score of at least 0.9,
a SignalP Neural Network (NN) predicted cleavage site giving a signal peptide
length between 10 and 40 amino acids inclusive, and the RXLR pattern must be
after but within 100 amino acids of the cleavage site.
SignalP is run truncating the sequences to the first 70 amino acids, which was
the default on the SignalP webservice used in Bhattacharjee et al. (2006).


**Win et al. (2007) RXLR Model**

Looks for the protein motif RXLR as described in Win et al. (2007).

Matches must have a SignalP Hidden Markov Model (HMM) score of at least 0.9,
a SignalP Neural Network (NN) predicted cleavage site giving a signal peptide
length between 10 and 40 amino acids inclusive, and the RXLR pattern must be
after the cleavage site and start between amino acids 30 and 60.
SignalP is run truncating the sequences to the first 70 amino acids, to match
the methodology of Torto et al. (2003) followed in Win et al. (2007).


**Whisson et al. (2007) RXLR-EER with HMM**

Looks for the protein motif RXLR-EER using the heuristic regular expression
methodolgy, which was an extension of the Bhattacharjee et al. (2006) model,
and a HMM as described in Whisson et al. (2007).

All the requirements described above for Bhattacharjee et al. (2006) apply,
but rather than just looking for RXLR with the regular expression R.LR the
more complicated regular expression R.LR.{,40}[ED][ED][KR] is used. This means
RXLR (Arg, any amino acid, Leu, Arg), then a stretch of up to forty amino
acids before Glu/Asp, Glu/Asp, Lys/Arg. The EER part of the name is perhaps
misleading as it also allows for DDR, EEK, and so on.

Unlike Bhattacharjee et al. (2006) which used the SignalP webservice which
defaults to truncating the sequences at 70 amino acids, Whisson et al. (2007)
used the SignalP 3.0 command line tool with its default of not truncating the
sequences. This does alter some of the scores, and also takes a little longer.

Additionally HMMER 2.3.2 is run to look for a cross validated HMM for the
RXLR-ERR domain based on known positive examples. There are no restrictions
on where within the protein the HMM match must be found.

The output of this model has four classes:
 * Y = Yes, both the heuristic motif and HMM were found.
 * re = Only the heuristic SignalP with regular expression motif was found.
 * hmm = Only the HMM was found.
 * neither = Niether the heuristic motif nor HMM was found.

-----

**Note**

Both Bhattacharjee et al. (2006) and Win et al. (2007) used SignalP v2.0, which
is no longer available. The current release is SignalP v3.0 (Mar 5, 2007), so
this is used instead. SignalP is called with the Eukaryote model and the short
output (one line per protein). Any sequence truncation (e.g. to 70 amino acids)
is handled via the intemediate sequence files.
