Available Versions

Unspecified: 6.0-fast 6.0-slow

Commands

  • signalp6

Module

You can load the modules by:

module load biocontainers
module load signalp6

Example job for fast mode

Using #!/bin/sh -l as shebang in the slurm job script will cause the failure of some biocontainer modules. Please use #!/bin/bash instead.

To run signalp6 on our clusters:

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -A myallocation     # Allocation name
#SBATCH -t 2:00:00
#SBATCH -N 1
#SBATCH -n 24
#SBATCH --job-name=signalp6-fast
#SBATCH --mail-type=FAIL,BEGIN,END
#SBATCH --error=%x-%J-%u.err
#SBATCH --output=%x-%J-%u.out

module --force purge
ml biocontainers signalp6/6.0-fast

signalp6 --write_procs 24 --fastafile proteins_clean.fasta  \
    --organism euk --output_dir output_fast  \
    --format txt --mode fast

Example job for slow mode

Using #!/bin/sh -l as shebang in the slurm job script will cause the failure of some biocontainer modules. Please use #!/bin/bash instead.

To run signalp6 on our clusters:

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -A myallocation     # Allocation name
#SBATCH -t 12:00:00
#SBATCH -N 1
#SBATCH -n 24
