Combine Sequences by Rows Without Recycling

Take vectors and/or matrices arguments and combine them row-wise without recycling them (as is the case with rbind).

seqbind(..., blank = "-")

Arguments

...	vectors, matrices, and/or alignment ‘fasta’ objects to combine.
blank	a character to add to short arguments, to achieve the same length as the longer argument.

Value

Returns a list of class "fasta" with the following components:

ali

an alignment character matrix with a row per sequence and a column per equivalent aminoacid/nucleotide.

id

sequence names as identifers.

call

the matched call.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
## Read two pdbs
a.pdb <- read.pdb("1bg2")
b.pdb <- read.pdb("1goj")

seqs <- seqbind(aa321(a.pdb$atom[a.pdb$calpha,"resid"]),
                aa321(b.pdb$atom[b.pdb$calpha,"resid"]))
