NAME

       Bio::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> 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.

FEEDBACK

   Mailing Lists
       User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send
       your comments and suggestions preferably to one of the Bioperl mailing lists.  Your
       participation is much appreciated.

   Support
       Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

       bioperl-l@bioperl.org

       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.

   Reporting Bugs
       Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track the bugs and their
       resolution.  Bug reports can be submitted via the web:
