NAME
Bio::LiveSeq::Translation - Translation class for LiveSeq

SYNOPSIS
  #documentation needed

DESCRIPTION
This stores informations about aminoacids translations of transcripts. The implementation is that a Translation object is the translation of a Transcript object, with different possibilities of manipulation, different coordinate system and eventually its own ranges (protein domains).

APPENDIX
The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

  new
  Title   : new
  Usage   : $protein = Bio::LiveSeq::Translation->new(-transcript => $transcr);

  Function: generates a new Bio::LiveSeq::Translation
  Returns : reference to a new object of class Translation
  Errorcode -1
  Args    : reference to an object of class Transcript

  get_Transcript
  Title   : valid
  Usage   : $transcript = $obj->get_Transcript()
  Function: retrieves the reference to the object of class Transcript (if any)
            attached to a LiveSeq object
  Returns : object reference
  Args    : none

  aa_ranges
  Title   : aa_ranges
  Usage   : @proteinfeatures = $translation->aa_ranges()
  Function: to retrieve all the LiveSeq AARange objects attached to a
            Translation, usually created out of a SwissProt database entry
            crossreferenced from an EMBL CDS feature.
  Returns : an array
  Args    : none
