=head1 NAME
MPBLAST - multiplex BLAST
=head1 SYNOPSIS
mpblast [hwsnmltb]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
MPBLAST improves the performance of BLAST searches by combining short querries
into one multiplex query. For example, instead of executing BLASTN 100 times
with 500 bp querries, you execute BLAST once on a multiplexed 50,000 bp query.
The optimal size of a multiplex query is about 100,000 characters. Therefore if
you execute MPBLAST with 10,000 500 bp querries, it would break this up into 50
separate searches of 100,000 bp each. The size of each multiplex is a
commandline option should you wish to change it. Each version of BLASTN has its
own optimal multiplex size, so you may want to experiment and find the optimal
size for your use.
=head1 COMMANDLINE OPTIONS
=head2 -w -n
Sets the type of BLAST to either WU-BLAST or NCBI-BLAST. If one of these flags
are not set, MPBLAST will guess based on the program name.
=head2 -l -s
The length of the segment separator can be set with the -l option. The
separator is used to prevent alignments from crossing the single-sequence
boundaries in the multiplex query. The default is to use 100 -'s for WU-BLAST
and 100 N's for NCBI-BLAST.
If using WU-BLAST, you can use the -s option to make the multiplex segmentation
more efficient. -s makes each segment separator into a single '-' instead of
100 char string.
=head2 -m
The default length of multiplexes is 100,000 bp. Empirically, this value works
well. The optimal length is determined by various factors though, and there may
be applications where smaller or larger values are more suitable. For example,
on machines with little RAM, -m should be set smaller (also see -b below). I
have noticed on some platforms that the optimial multipliex size for NCBI-BLAST
is more than 200,000 bp.
=head2 -t -b
The default output format is space-delimited fields (see below). You can change
the delimiter with the -s option.
The -b option makes the output look like a BLAST report.
=head1 OUTPUT FORMATS
MPBLAST has 2 output formats. The default is tabular. You may set the record
separator with the -t option. The default is a single space.
The column definitions are as follows:
1: query begin
2: query end
3: query name
4: sbjct begin
5: sbjct end
6: sbjct name
7: raw score
8: bits (normalized score)
9: E-value
10: P-value
11: percent identity
12: number of matches
13: number of positive scores (similarities)
14: length of alignment
15: length of query
16: length of sbjct
17: number of gaps in query alignment
18: number of gaps in sbjct alignment
Each row of the table corresponds to an alignment. Blank lines separate query
sequences.
The other format looks like concatenated WU-BLAST reports. Between each report
are tags that identify each segment of the multiplex.
MPBLAST SEGMENT 0 START
:
: (the blast report)
:
MPBLAST SEGMENT 0 END
MPBLAST SEGMENT 1 START
:
MPBLAST SEGMENT 1 END
The -b switch turns on BLAST-style output. Note that this takes more memory.
=head1 PERFORMANCE
The peformance improvement is typically around 10x, but this depends on several
factors. These include the size of each sequence in the multiplex, the size of
the multiplex, the size of the database relative to RAM (caching or thrashing),
the similarity between the sequences in the multiplex, and the version of
BLAST. In my tests, WU-BLAST is faster than NCBI-BLAST, but NCBI-BLAST benefits
more from multiplexing.
=head1 LIMITATIONS
Various BLAST commandline options are not supported or do not behave in the
expected manner. For example, -V and -B (-v and -b in NCBI-BLAST) are disabled.
Combining HSPs with Sum or Poisson statistics is not supported.
