  • How to tell legacy_blast.pl to look for blastp in different path?

    Hello,
    I was testing pantherScore.pl but then I got this :

    Can't exec "/usr/bin/blastp": No such file or directory at /tmp_home/lf/sf/ncbi-blast-2.2.30+/bin//legacy_blast.pl line 85.

    It seemed that pantherScore.pl initiated a blastp process but the legacy_blast.pl couldn't find blastp.

    By typing "which blastp", I got /tmp_home/lf/sf/ncbi-blast-2.2.30+/bin/blastp

    And then I thought I could just modify that line 85 yet there was no room for me to modify it (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/IEB/Tool...egacy_blast.pl)

    Can anyone tell me how to solve this? Many thanks

    I assume that your blastp is simply not found in any dir in the path, not specifically in "/usr/bin"?! The easiest way to resolve the error would then be to create a symlink in /usr/bin pointing to your blastp installation.

    Code:
    sudo ln -s /tmp_home/lf/sf/ncbi-blast-2.2.30+/bin/blastp /usr/bin/blastp

      It looks like you are expected to edit this line near the start of legacy_blast.pl:

      Code:
      # Default PATH where binaries will be found
      use constant DEFAULT_PATH => "/usr/bin";
      In your case, I would try:

      Code:
      # Default PATH where binaries will be found
      use constant DEFAULT_PATH => "/tmp_home/lf/sf/ncbi-blast-2.2.30+/bin";

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
