NAME

Bio::EnsEMBL::IdMapping::TinyTranscript - lightweight transcript object

SYNOPSIS

# fetch a transcript from the db and create a lightweight
# transcript object from it
my $tr = $transcript_adaptor->fetch_by_stable_id('ENST000345437');
my $lightweight_tr =
  Bio::EnsEMBL::IdMapping::TinyTranscript->new_fast( [
    $tr->dbID,          $tr->stable_id,
    $tr->version,       $tr->created_date,
    $tr->modified_date, $tr->start,
    $tr->end,           $tr->strand,
    $tr->length,        md5_hex( $tr->spliced_seq ),
  ] );

DESCRIPTION

This is a lightweight transcript object for the stable Id mapping. See the documentation in TinyFeature for general considerations about its design.

METHODS

start
end
strand
length
seq_md5_sum
add_Translation
translation
add_Exon
get_all_Exons

start

Arg[1]      : (optional) Int - the transcript's start coordinate
Description : Getter/setter for the transcript's start coordinate.
Return type : Int
Exceptions  : none
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

end

Arg[1]      : (optional) Int - the transcript's end coordinate
Description : Getter/setter for the transcript's end coordinate.
Return type : Int
Exceptions  : none
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

strand

Arg[1]      : (optional) Int - the transcript's strand
Description : Getter/setter for the transcript's strand.
Return type : Int
Exceptions  : none
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

length

Arg[1]      : (optional) Int - the transcript's length
Description : Getter/setter for the transcript's length. Note that this is
              *not* the distance between start and end, but rather the sum of
              the lengths of all exons.
Return type : Int
Exceptions  : none
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

seq_md5_sum

Arg[1]      : (optional) String - the md5 digest of the transcript's sequence
Description : Getter/setter for the md5 digest of the transcript's sequence.
              Note that when used as a setter, you are expected to pass a
              digest, not the raw sequence (i.e. the digest is not created for
              you).
Return type : String
Exceptions  : none
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

add_Translation

Arg[1]      : Bio::EnsEMBL::IdMapping::TinyTranslation $tl - the translation
              to add
Example     : $tiny_transcript->add_Translation($tiny_translation);
Description : Adds a translation to this transcript.
Return type : none
Exceptions  : thrown on wrong or missing argument
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

translation

Description : Getter for the transcript's translation.
Return type : Bio::EnsEMBL::IdMapping::TinyTranslation
Exceptions  : none
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

add_Exon

Arg[1]      : Bio::EnsEMBL::IdMapping::TinyExon $exon - the exon to add
Example     : $tiny_transcript->add_Exon($tiny_exon);
Description : Adds an exon to this transcript.
Return type : none
Exceptions  : thrown on wrong or missing argument
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

get_all_Exons

Example     : foreach my $exon (@{ $tiny_transcript->get_all_Exons }) {
                # do something with exon
              }
Description : Returns all exons attached to that transcript.
Return type : Arrayref of Bio::EnsEMBL::IdMapping::TinyExon objects
Exceptions  : none
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

biotype

Arg[1]      : (optional) String - the gene's biotype
Description : Getter/setter for the gene's biotype.
Return type : String
Exceptions  : none
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development

seq_region_name

Arg[1]      : (optional) String - seq_region name
Description : Getter/setter for the seq_region name of the slice the gene is
              on.
Return type : String
Exceptions  : none
Caller      : general
Status      : At Risk
            : under development
