NAME

Bio::EnsEMBL::FeaturePair - Stores sequence Features which are themselves hits to other sequence features.

SYNOPSIS

    my $feat = Bio::EnsEMBL::FeaturePair->new(
      -start      => 132_231,
      -end        => 132_321,
      -strand     => -1,
      -slice      => $slice,
      -hstart     => 10,
      -hend       => 100,
      -hstrand    => 1,
      -score      => 100,
      -percent_id => 92.0,
      -hseqname   => 'ALUSX10.1',
      -analysis   => $analysis
    );

    my $hit_start  = $feat->hstart();
    my $hit_end    = $feat->hend();
    my $hit_strand = $feat->hstrand();
    my $analysis   = $feat->analysis();

DESCRIPTION

A sequence feature object where the feature is itself a feature on another sequence - e.g. a blast hit where residues 1-40 of a protein sequence SW:HBA_HUMAN has hit to bases 100 - 220 on a genomic sequence HS120G22. The genomic sequence coordinates are represented by the start, end, strand attributes while the protein (hit) coordinates are represented by the hstart, hend, hstrand attributes.

  $clone = $slice_adpator->fetch_by_region( 'clone', 'HS120G22' );

  $fp = Bio::EnsEMBL::FeaturePair(
    -start      => 100,
    -end        => 220,
    -strand     => 1,
    -slice      => $clone,
    -hstart     => 1,
    -hend       => 40,
    -hstrand    => 1,
    -percent_id => 92.0,
    -score      => 100,
    -hseqname   => 'SW:HBA_HUMAN',
    -species    => 'Homo sapiens',
    -hspecies   => 'Homo sapiens'
  );
