isBimera: Determine if input sequence is a bimera of putative parent...

View source: R/chimeras.R

Description

This function attempts to find an exact bimera of the parent sequences that matches the input sequence. A bimera is a two-parent chimera, in which the left side is made up of one parent sequence, and the right-side made up of a second parent sequence. If an exact bimera is found TRUE is returned, otherwise FALSE. Bimeras that are one-off from exact are also identified if the allowOneOff argument is TRUE.

isBimera(
  sq,
  parents,
  allowOneOff = FALSE,
  minOneOffParentDistance = 4,
  maxShift = 16
)

Arguments

sq

(Required). A character(1). The sequence being evaluated as a possible bimera.

parents

(Required). Character vector. A vector of possible "parent" sequence that could form the left and right sides of the bimera.

allowOneOff

(Optional). A logical(1). Default is FALSE. If FALSE, sq will be identified as a bimera if it is one mismatch or indel away from an exact bimera.

minOneOffParentDistance

(Optional). A numeric(1). Default is 4. Only sequences with at least this many mismatches to sq are considered as possible "parents" when flagging one-off bimeras. There is no such screen when identifying exact bimeras.

maxShift

(Optional). A numeric(1). Default is 16. Maximum shift allowed when aligning sequences to potential "parents".

Value

logical(1). TRUE if sq is a bimera of two of the parents. Otherwise FALSE.
