add_segment()         add a new subfeature to split alignments
get_SeqFeatures()     fetch subfeatures from split alignments
split_splices()       process cigar strings to produce split alignments
expand_flags()        return true if flags should be expanded into tags
seq_id()              return human-readable reference sequence name
seq()                 return Bio::PrimarySeq object for reference sequence
subseq()              return a subsequence across the indicated range
mate_seq_id()         return human-readable mate reference sequence name
dna()                 return the DNA of the reference sequence
tam_line()            return the text representation of the alignment
