=head1 NAME
Bio::Tools::Signalp - parser for Signalp output
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Bio::Tools::Signalp;
my $parser = Bio::Tools::Signalp->new(-fh =>$filehandle );
while( my $sp_feat = $parser->next_result ) {
if ($sp_feat->score > 0.9) {
push @likely_sigpep, $sp_feat;
}
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<SignalP> predicts the presence and location of signal peptide
cleavage sites in amino acid sequences.
L<Bio::Tools::Signalp> parses the output of C<SignalP> to provide a
L<Bio::SeqFeature::Generic> object describing the signal peptide
found, if any. It returns a variety of tags extracted from the NN and HMM
analysis. Most importantly, the C<score()> attribute contains the
NN probability of this being a true signal peptide.
