The home page of REBASE is: http://rebase.neb.com/
This program uses REBASE data to find the recognition sites and/or cut sites of restriction enzymes in a nucleic acid sequence.
This program displays the cut sites on both strands by default. It will optionally also display the translation of the sequence.
There are many options to change the style of display to aid in making clear presentations.
One potentially very useful option is '-flatreformat' that displays not only the cut sites which many other restriction cut-site programs will show, but also shows the recognition site.
By default, only one of any group of isoschizomers (enzymes that have the same recognition site and cut positions) is reported (this behaviour can be turned off by setting the qualifier '-limit' to be false.) The reported enzyme from any one group of isoschizomers (the prototype) is specified in the REBASE database and the information is held in the data file 'embossre.equ'. You may edit this file to set your own preferred prototype,if you wish.
As well as the display of where enzymes cut in the sequence, remap displays:
This example uses only a small region of the input sequence to save space. This is run with a small test version of the restriction enzyme database and so you will probably see more enzymes when you run this.
% remap -notran -sbeg 1 -send 60 Display sequence with restriction sites, translation etc. Input nucleotide sequence(s): tembl:j01636 Comma separated enzyme list [all]: taqi,bsu6i,acii,bsski Minimum recognition site length [4]: Output file [j01636.remap]: |

Example 2
This is an example where all enzymes in the REBASE database are used, (but only the prototypes of the isoschizomers are reported by default). This is run with a small test version of the restriction enzyme database and so you will probably see more enzymes when you run this.
% remap -notran -sbeg 1 -send 60 Display sequence with restriction sites, translation etc. Input nucleotide sequence(s): tembl:j01636 Comma separated enzyme list [all]: Minimum recognition site length [4]: Output file [j01636.remap]: |
Go to the output files for this example
Example 3
This is an example where all enzymes in the REBASE database are used but the -limit qualifier is not set so that all of the enzymes are displayed and not just only the prototypes of the isoschizomers. This is run with a small test version of the restriction enzyme database and so you will probably see more enzymes when you run this.
% remap -notran -sbeg 1 -send 60 -nolimit Display sequence with restriction sites, translation etc. Input nucleotide sequence(s): tembl:j01636 Comma separated enzyme list [all]: Minimum recognition site length [4]: Output file [j01636.remap]: |

Example 4
This shows the 'flat' format: This is run with a small test version of the restriction enzyme database and so you will probably see more enzymes when you run this.
% remap -notran -sbeg 1 -send 60 -flat Display sequence with restriction sites, translation etc. Input nucleotide sequence(s): tembl:j01636 Comma separated enzyme list [all]: Minimum recognition site length [4]: Output file [j01636.remap]: |

Standard (Mandatory) qualifiers:
[-sequence] seqall Nucleotide sequence(s) filename and optional
format, or reference (input USA)
-enzymes string [all] The name 'all' reads in all enzyme
names from the REBASE database. You can
specify enzymes by giving their names with
commas between then, such as:
'HincII,hinfI,ppiI,hindiii'.
The case of the names is not important. You
can specify a file of enzyme names to read
in by giving the name of the file holding
the enzyme names with a '@' character in
front of it, for example, '@enz.list'.
Blank lines and lines starting with a hash
character or '!' are ignored and all other
lines are concatenated together with a comma
character ',' and then treated as the list
of enzymes to search for.
An example of a file of enzyme names is:
! my enzymes
HincII, ppiII
! other enzymes
hindiii
HinfI
PpiI (Any string is accepted)
-sitelen integer [4] This sets the minimum length of the
restriction enzyme recognition site. Any
enzymes with sites shorter than this will be
ignored. (Integer from 2 to 20)
[-outfile] outfile [*.remap] Output file name
Additional (Optional) qualifiers:
-mincuts integer [1] This sets the minimum number of cuts for
any restriction enzyme that will be
considered. Any enzymes that cut fewer times
than this will be ignored. (Integer from 1
to 1000)
-maxcuts integer [2000000000] This sets the maximum number of
cuts for any restriction enzyme that will
be considered. Any enzymes that cut more
times than this will be ignored. (Integer up
to 2000000000)
-single boolean [N] If this is set then this forces the
values of the mincuts and maxcuts qualifiers
to both be 1. Any other value you may have
set them to will be ignored.
-[no]blunt boolean [Y] This allows those enzymes which cut at
the same position on the forward and reverse
strands to be considered.
-[no]sticky boolean [Y] This allows those enzymes which cut at
different positions on the forward and
reverse strands, leaving an overhang, to be
considered.
-[no]ambiguity boolean [Y] This allows those enzymes which have one
or more 'N' ambiguity codes in their
pattern to be considered
-plasmid boolean [N] If this is set then this allows searches
for restriction enzyme recognition site and
cut postions that span the end of the
sequence to be considered.
-[no]commercial boolean [Y] If this is set, then only those enzymes
with a commercial supplier will be searched
for. This qualifier is ignored if you have
specified an explicit list of enzymes to
search for, rather than searching through
'all' the enzymes in the REBASE database. It
is assumed that, if you are asking for an
explicit enzyme, then you probably know
where to get it from and so all enzymes
names that you have asked to be searched
for, and which cut, will be reported whether
or not they have a commercial supplier.
-table menu [0] Genetic code to use (Values: 0
(Standard); 1 (Standard (with alternative
initiation codons)); 2 (Vertebrate
Mitochondrial); 3 (Yeast Mitochondrial); 4
(Mold, Protozoan, Coelenterate Mitochondrial
and Mycoplasma/Spiroplasma); 5
(Invertebrate Mitochondrial); 6 (Ciliate
Macronuclear and Dasycladacean); 9
(Echinoderm Mitochondrial); 10 (Euplotid
Nuclear); 11 (Bacterial); 12 (Alternative
Yeast Nuclear); 13 (Ascidian Mitochondrial);
14 (Flatworm Mitochondrial); 15
(Blepharisma Macronuclear); 16
(Chlorophycean Mitochondrial); 21 (Trematode
Mitochondrial); 22 (Scenedesmus obliquus);
23 (Thraustochytrium Mitochondrial))
-frame menu [6] This allows you to specify the frames
that are translated. If you are not
displaying cut sites on the reverse sense,
then the reverse sense translations will not
be displayed even if you have requested
frames 4, 5 or 6. By default, all six frames
will be displayed. (Values: 1 (1); 2 (2); 3
(3); F (Forward three frames); -1 (-1); -2
(-2); -3 (-3); R (Reverse three frames); 6
(All six frames))
-[no]cutlist boolean [Y] This produces lists in the output of the
enzymes that cut, those that cut but are
excluded because that cut fewer times than
mincut or more times than maxcut and those
enzymes that do not cut.
-flatreformat boolean [N] This changes the output format to one
where the recognition site is indicated by a
row of '===' characters and the cut site is
pointed to by a '>' character in the
forward sense, or a '<' in the reverse sense
strand.
-[no]limit boolean [Y] This limits the reporting of enzymes to
just one enzyme from each group of
isoschizomers. The enzyme chosen to
represent an isoschizomer group is the
prototype indicated in the data file
'embossre.equ', which is created by the
program 'rebaseextract'. If you prefer
different prototypes to be used, make a copy
of embossre.equ in your home directory and
edit it. If this value is set to be false
then all of the input enzymes will be
reported. You might like to set this to
false if you are supplying an explicit set
of enzymes rather than searching 'all' of
them.
Advanced (Unprompted) qualifiers:
-[no]translation boolean [Y] This displays the 6-frame translations
of the sequence in the output.
-[no]reverse boolean [Y] This displays the cut sites and
translation of the reverse sense.
-orfminsize integer [If this value is left as 0 then all of the
translation is shown.] This sets the minimum
size of Open Reading Frames (ORFs) to
display in the translations. All other
translation regions are masked by changing
the amino acids to '-' characters. (Integer
0 or more)
-uppercase range [If this is left blank, then the sequence
case is left alone.] Regions to put in
uppercase.
If this is left blank, then the sequence
case is left alone.
A set of regions is specified by a set of
pairs of positions.
The positions are integers.
They are separated by any non-digit,
non-alpha character.
Examples of region specifications are:
24-45, 56-78
1:45, 67=99;765..888
1,5,8,10,23,45,57,99
-highlight range [(full sequence)] Regions to colour if
formatting for HTML.
If this is left blank, then the sequence is
left alone.
A set of regions is specified by a set of
pairs of positions.
The positions are integers.
They are followed by any valid HTML font
colour.
Examples of region specifications are:
24-45 blue 56-78 orange
1-100 green 120-156 red
A file of ranges to colour (one range per
line) can be specifed as '@filename'.
-threeletter boolean [N] Display protein sequences in
three-letter code
-number boolean [N] Number the sequences
-width integer [60] Width of sequence to display (Integer 1
or more)
-length integer [0] Line length of page (0 for indefinite)
(Integer 0 or more)
-margin integer [10] Margin around sequence for numbering
(Integer 0 or more)
-[no]name boolean [Y] Set this to be false if you do not wish
to display the ID name of the sequence
-[no]description boolean [Y] Set this to be false if you do not wish
to display the description of the sequence
-offset integer [1] Offset to start numbering the sequence
from (Any integer value)
-html boolean [N] Use HTML formatting

You can specifiy a file of ranges to display in uppercase by giving the '-uppercase' qualifier the value '@' followed by the name of the file containing the ranges. (eg: '-upper @myfile').
The format of the range file is:
An example range file is:
# this is my set of ranges 12 23 4 5 this is like 12-23, but smaller 67 10348 interesting region
You can specifiy a file of ranges to highlight in a different colour when outputting in HTML format (using the '-html' qualifier) by giving the '-highlight' qualifier the value '@' followed by the name of the file containing the ranges. (eg: '-highlight @myfile').
The format of this file is very similar to the format of the above uppercase range file, except that the text after the start and end positions is used as the HTML colour name. This colour name is used 'as is' when specifying the colour in HTML in a '<FONT COLOR=xxx>' construct, (where 'xxx' is the name of the colour).
The standard names of HTML font colours are given in:
http://http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/types.html
and
http://www.ausmall.com.au/freegraf/ncolour2.htm
and
http://mindprod.com/htmlcolours.html
(amongst other places).
An example highlight range file is:
# this is my set of ranges 12 23 red 4 5 darkturquoise 67 10348 #FFE4E1

The name of the sequence is displayed, followed by the description of the sequence.
The formatted display of cut sites on the sequence follows, with the six-frame translation below it. The cut sites are indicated by a slash character '\' that points to the poition between the nucleotides where the cuts occur. Cuts by many enzymes at the same position are indicated by stacking the enzyme names on top of each other.
At the end the section header 'Enzymes that cut' is displayed followed by a list of the enzymes that cut the specified sequence and the number of times that they cut. For each enzyme that cuts, a list of isoschizomers of that enzyme (sharing the same recognition site pattern and cut sites) is given.
This is followed by lists of the enzymes that do cut, but which cut less often than the '-mincut' qualifier or more often than the '-maxcut' qualifier.
Any of the isoschizomers that are excluded from cutting, (either through restrictions such as the permitted number of cuts, blunt cutters only, single cutters only etc. or because their name has not been given in the input list of enzymes), will not be listed.
Then a list is displayed of the enzymes whose names were input and which match the other criteria ('-sitelen', '-blunt', '-sticky', '-ambiguity' or '-commercial') but which do not cut.
Finally the number of enzymes that were rejected from consideration because they do not match the '-sitelen', '-blunt', '-sticky', '-ambiguity' or '-commercial' criteria is displayed.
The '-flatreformat' qualifier changes the display to emphasise the recognition site of the restriction enzyme, which is indicated by a row of '=' characters. The cut site if pointed to by a '>' or '<' character and if the cut site is not within or imemdiately adjacent to the recognition site, they are linked by a row of '.' characters.
The name of the enzyme is displayed above (or below when the reverse sense site if displayed) the recognition site. The name of the enzyme is also displayed above the cut site if this occurs on a different display line to the recognition site (i.e. if it wraps onto the next line of sequence).
EMBOSS data files are distributed with the application and stored in the standard EMBOSS data directory, which is defined by the EMBOSS environment variable EMBOSS_DATA.
To see the available EMBOSS data files, run:
% embossdata -showall
To fetch one of the data files (for example 'Exxx.dat') into your current directory for you to inspect or modify, run:
% embossdata -fetch -file Exxx.dat
Users can provide their own data files in their own directories. Project specific files can be put in the current directory, or for tidier directory listings in a subdirectory called ".embossdata". Files for all EMBOSS runs can be put in the user's home directory, or again in a subdirectory called ".embossdata".
The directories are searched in the following order:
The EMBOSS REBASE restriction enzyme data files are stored iin directory 'data/REBASE/*' under the EMBOSS installation directory.
These files must first be set up using the program 'rebaseextract'. Running 'rebaseextract' may be the job of your system manager.
The data files are stored in the REBASE directory of the standard EMBOSS data directory. The names are:
The reported enzyme from any one group of isoschizomers (the prototype) is specified in the REBASE database and the information is held in the data file 'embossre.equ'. You may edit this file to set your own preferred prototype, if you wish.
The format of the file "embossre.equ" is
Enzyme-name Prototype-name
i.e. two columns of enzyme names separated by a space. The first name of the pair of enzymes is the name that is not preferred and the second is the preferred (prototype) name.
