NAME

       Bio::Search::HSP::ModelHSP - A HSP object for model-based searches

SYNOPSIS

           use Bio::Search::HSP::ModelHSP;
           # us it just like a Bio::Search::HSP::ModelHSP object

DESCRIPTION

       This object is a specialization of Bio::Search::HSP::ModelHSP and is used for searches
       which involve a query model, such as a Hidden Markov Model (HMM), covariance model (CM),
       descriptor, or anything else besides a sequence. Note that results from any HSPI class
       methods which rely on the query being a sequence are unreliable and have thus been
       overridden with warnings indicating they have not been implemented at this time.

       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.

   Bio::Search::HSP::HSPI methods
       Implementation of Bio::Search::HSP::HSPI methods follow

   algorithm

        Args    : 'hit' or 'subject' or 'sbjct' to retrieve the strand of the subject.
                  There is no strand available for 'query', as the query is a model
                  and not a true sequence.

        Argument  : seq_type = 'query' or 'hit' or 'sbjct' (default = 'sbjct').
                  :  ('sbjct' is synonymous with 'hit')
                  : default is 'sbjct'
                  : Note: if there is no sequence available (eg for a model-based
                  : search), this returns a LocatableSeq object w/o a sequence
        Throws    : Propagates any exception that occurs during construction
                  : of the Bio::Seq.pm object.
        Comments  : The sequence is returned in an array of strings corresponding
                  : to the strings in the original format of the Blast alignment.
                  : (i.e., same spacing).

                          'total' = num gaps in whole alignment
                          default = 'total'

                   (without gaps)

        Note    : Frames are stored in the GFF way (0-2) not 1-3
                  as they are in BLAST (negative frames are deduced by checking
                                        the strand of the query or hit)
