Digests a protein database in-silico.

pot. predecessor tools	→ Digestor →	pot. successor tools
none (FASTA input)	→ Digestor →	IDFilter (peptide blacklist)

This application is used to digest a protein database to get all peptides given a cleavage enzyme.

The output can be used e.g. as a blacklist filter input to IDFilter, to remove certain peptides.

Note: Currently mzIdentML (mzid) is not directly supported as an input/output format of this tool. Convert mzid files to/from idXML using IDFileConverter if necessary.

Usage:
  Digestor <options>

Options (mandatory options marked with '*'):
  -in <file>*                  Input file (valid formats: 'fasta')
  -out <file>*                 Output file (peptides) (valid formats: 'idXML', 'fasta')
  -out_type <type>             Set this if you cannot control the filename of 'out', e.g., in TOPPAS. (valid: 'idXML', 'fasta')
  -missed_cleavages <number>   The number of allowed missed cleavages (default: '1') (min: '0')
  -min_length <number>         Minimum length of peptide (default: '6')
  -max_length <number>         Maximum length of peptide (default: '40')
  -enzyme <string>             The type of digestion enzyme (default: 'Trypsin') (valid: 'glutamyl endopeptidase', 'Alpha-lytic protease', 'no cleavage', 'unspecific cleavage', 'Trypsin', 'Arg-C', 'Arg-C/P', 'Asp-N', 'Asp-N/B', 'Glu-C+P', 'PepsinA + P', 'cyanogen-bromide', 'Clostripain/P', 'elastase-trypsin-chymotrypsin', 'Asp-N_ambic', 'Chymotrypsin', 'Chymotrypsin/P', 'CNBr', 'Formic_acid', 'Lys-C', 'Lys-N', 'Lys-C/P', 'PepsinA', 'TrypChymo', 'Trypsin/P', 'V8-DE', 'V8-E', 'leukocyte elastase', 'proline endopeptidase', '2-iodobenzoate', 'iodosobenzoate', 'staphylococcal protease/D', 'proline-endopeptidase/HKR')

Options for FASTA output files:
  -FASTA:ID <option>           Identifier to use for each peptide: copy from parent protein (parent); a consecutive number (number); parent ID + consecutive number (both) (default: 'parent') (valid: 'parent', 'number', 'both')
  -FASTA:description <option>  Keep or remove the (possibly lengthy) FASTA header description. Keeping it can increase resulting FASTA file significantly. (default: 'remove') (valid: 'remove', 'keep')

                               
Common TOPP options:
  -ini <file>                  Use the given TOPP INI file
  -threads <n>                 Sets the number of threads allowed to be used by the TOPP tool (default: '1')
  -write_ini <file>            Writes the default configuration file
  --help                       Shows options
  --helphelp                   Shows all options (including advanced)
