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
