The map 4 module is the current default for TMAP.

Options supported with the TMAP map 4 module(all are optional):

Option Type Default Description
--context -- off Modifies the gap penalty in homopolymers to achieve more accurate alignments
--do-repeat-clip -- off Clips repetitive sequence ends of aligned reads
--hit-frac FLOAT 0.2 The fraction of seed positions that are under the maximum
--end-repair INT 0 Rescues false negatives by selectively forcing alignment at the 3' end of the read. The recommended value is 15.
--J INT off 2147483647 Rescues false negatives by selectively forcing alignment at the 3' end of the read. The recommended value is 25.
--seed-step INT 8 Thenumber of bases to increase the seed for each seed increase iteration (-1 to disable)
--min-seed-length INT -1 Theminimum seed length to accept hits (-1 to disable)
--max-seed-length INT 48 Themaximum seed length to accept hits
--max-seed-length-adj-coef (-1 to disable) FLOAT 2.0 maximum seed length adjustment coefficient (-1 to disable)
--max-iwidth INT 20 Themaximum interval size to accept a hit
--max-repr INT 3 The maximumrepresentativehits for repetitive hits
--rand-repr INT false Choose the representative hits randomly. Otherwise uniformly
--use-min Boolean false When seed stepping, try seeding when at least the minimum seed length is present. Otherwise, use the maximum seed length.
--min-seq-length INT -1 The minimum sequence length to examine (-1 to disable)
--max-seq-length INT -1 The maximum sequence length to examine(-1 to disable)
