Bio::Tools::Run::Coil(User Contributed Perl DocumentatBio::Tools::Run::Coil(3)NAMEBio::Tools::Run::Coil - wrapper for ncoils program
SYNOPSIS
# Build a Coil factory
my $factory = Bio::Tools::Run::Coil->new($params);
# Pass the factory a Bio::Seq object
# @feats is an array of Bio::SeqFeature::Generic objects
my @feats = $factory->run($seq);
DESCRIPTION
This module is a wrapper for the ncoils program available via
http://www.russell.embl-heidelberg.de/coils/coils.tar.gz
<http://www.russell.embl-heidelberg.de/coils/coils.tar.gz> for
predicting coiled coils in protein sequences.
By default it looks for an executable called ncoils and data/parameter
files in the directory specified by the COILSDIR environmental
variable.

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address
it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and
data examples if at all possible.
