# Created May 2011 # # Alex Bossers # Central Veterinary Institute # Wageningen University and Research centre # Lelystad, The Netherlands # # Comments/improvements/bugs: Alex (dot) Bossers (at) wur (dot) nl # WHAT IT DOES TopHit_namefilter is a SIMPLE filter to keep just the TOPHIT / first [N] occurrence(s) of some identifier. This is useful for keeping only the first N tophits of for instance BLAST when multiple hits were returned (and you don't want to rerun the BLAST analysis). Of course it is NOT restricted to BLAST and can basically filter ANY tabular data for uniqueness. Please be aware that NO additional filtering or checking is done on for instance E values of BLAST hits. Tophit = FIRST hit...not necessarily the best.. If multiple hits are selected to be returned they will NOT be sorted (see below example of a number of 2 hits occurring somewhere else in the input and therefore in the output file). # REQUIREMENTS Perl Galaxy :) # SETUP Just unpack the tool xml and perl script somewhere appropriate and plug the tool in the tool_config.xml of your galaxy instance. Refresh the tools or restart the galaxy server. # LICENSE Copyright (c) 2011 Central Veterinary Institute of Wageningen UR, Lelystad, The Netherlands.
