Bio::Seq::RichSeq - Module implementing a sequence created from a rich sequence database entry See Bio::Seq::RichSeqI and documentation of methods. This module implements Bio::Seq::RichSeqI, an interface for sequences created from or created for entries from/of rich sequence databanks, like EMBL, GenBank, and SwissProt. Methods added to the Bio::SeqI interface therefore focus on databank-specific information. Note that not every rich databank format may use all of the properties provided.

Reporting Bugs
Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via email or the web: bioperl-bugs@bio.perl.org http://bio.perl.org/bioperl-bugs/ Email birney@ebi.ac.uk Describe contact details here The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

new
Title : new Usage : $seq = Bio::Seq::RichSeq->new( -seq => 'ATGGGGGTGGTGGTACCCT', -id => 'human_id', -accession_number => 'AL000012', ); Function: Returns a new seq object from basic constructors, being a string for the sequence and strings for id and accession_number Returns : a new Bio::Seq::RichSeq object

division
Title : division Usage : $obj->division($newval) Function: Returns : value of division Args : newvalue (optional)

molecule
Title : molecule Usage : $obj->molecule($newval) Function: Returns : type of molecule (DNA, mRNA) Args : newvalue (optional)

add_date
Title : add_date Usage : $self->add_date($datestr) Function: adds a date Example : Returns : a date string or an array of such strings Args :

get_dates
Title : get_dates Usage : Function: Example : Returns : an array of date strings Args :

pid
Title : pid Usage : Function: Get (and set, depending on the implementation) the PID property for the sequence. Example : Returns : a string Args :

accession
Title : accession Usage : $obj->accession($newval) Function: Whilst the underlying sequence object does not have an accession, so we need one here. In this implementation this is merely a synonym for accession_number(). Example : Returns : value of accession Args : newvalue (optional)

add_secondary_accession
Title : add_secondary_accession Usage : $self->add_domment($ref) Function: adds a secondary_accession Example : Returns : Args : a string or an array of strings

get_secondary_accessions
Title : get_secondary_accessions Usage : Function: Example : Returns : An array of strings Args :

seq_version
Title : seq_version Usage : $obj->seq_version($newval) Function: Example : Returns : value of seq_version Args : newvalue (optional)

keywords
Title : keywords Usage : $obj->keywords($newval) Function: Returns : value of keywords (a string) Args : newvalue (optional) (a string) sequence database entry"
