Documentation of values within sequence headers in a3m files

Open alex-hh opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Hi - thanks for this amazing tool. I am interested to know the exact meanings of the values that are returned in the sequence headers in the a3m files, and wondered whether this was documented anywhere? e.g. >UPI001E1DB192 365 0.724 4.351E-111 0 233 234 1 301 330.

Sorry, I missed this issue.

These are the same fields as in the internal MMseqs2 alignment format, with the targetID skipped, since the target accession is shown instead:

alnScore  seqIdentity  eVal  qStart  qEnd  qLen  tStart  tEnd  tLen
