=head1 NAME
Bio::Tools::SeqPattern - represent a sequence pattern or motif
=head1 SYNOPSIS
 use Bio::Tools::SeqPattern;
 my $pat1     = 'T[GA]AA...TAAT';
 my $pattern1 = Bio::Tools::SeqPattern->new(-SEQ =>$pat1, -TYPE =>'Dna');
 my $pat2     = '[VILM]R(GXX){3,2}...[^PG]';
 my $pattern2 = Bio::Tools::SeqPattern->new(-SEQ =>$pat2, -TYPE =>'Amino');
=head1 DESCRIPTION
L<Bio::Tools::SeqPattern> module encapsulates generic data and
methods for manipulating regular expressions describing nucleic or
amino acid sequence patterns (a.k.a, "motifs"), such as the ones produced by
L<Bio::Tools::IUPAC>.
L<Bio::Tools::SeqPattern> is a concrete class that inherits from L<Bio::Seq>.
This class grew out of a need to have a standard module for doing routine
tasks with sequence patterns such as:
  -- Forming a reverse-complement version of a nucleotide sequence pattern
  -- Expanding patterns containing ambiguity codes
  -- Checking for invalid regexp characters
  -- Untainting yet preserving special characters in the pattern
Other features to look for in the future:
  -- Full pattern syntax checking
  -- Conversion between expanded and condensed forms of the pattern
=head1 MOTIVATIONS
A key motivation for L<Bio::Tools::SeqPattern> is to have a way to
generate a reverse complement of a nucleotide sequence pattern.
This makes possible simultaneous pattern matching on both sense and
anti-sense strands of a query sequence.
In principle, one could do such a search more inefficiently by testing
against both sense and anti-sense versions of a sequence.
It is entirely equivalent to test a regexp containing both sense and
anti-sense versions of the *pattern* against one copy of the sequence.
The latter approach is much more efficient since:
   1) You need only one copy of the sequence.
   2) Only one regexp is executed.
   3) Regexp patterns are typically much smaller than sequences.
Patterns can be quite complex and it is often difficult to
generate the reverse complement pattern. The Bioperl SeqPattern.pm
addresses this problem, providing a convenient set of tools
for working with biological sequence regular expressions.
Not all patterns have been tested. If you discover a pattern that
is not handled properly by Bio::Tools::SeqPattern.pm, please
send me some email (sac@bioperl.org). Thanks.
=head1 OTHER FEATURES
=head2 Extended Alphabet Support
This module supports the same set of ambiguity codes for nucleotide
sequences as supported by L<Bio::Seq>. These ambiguity codes
define the behavior or the L<expand> method.

=head2 Multiple Format Support
Ultimately, this module should be able to build SeqPattern.pm objects
using a variety of pattern formats such as ProSite, Blocks, Prints, GCG, etc.
Currently, this module only supports patterns using a grep-like syntax.
=head1 USAGE
A simple demo script called seq_pattern.pl is included in the examples/
directory of the central Bioperl distribution.

conversion to a regular expression.
=head1 FEEDBACK
=head2 Mailing Lists
User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules.  Send your comments and suggestions preferably to one
of the Bioperl mailing lists.  Your participation is much appreciated.

=head2 Support 
Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:
I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>
rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and 
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly 
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem 
with code and data examples if at all possible.
=head2 Reporting Bugs
Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the

=head1 FOR DEVELOPERS ONLY
=head2 Data Members
Information about the various data members of this module is provided
for those wishing to modify or understand the code. Two things to bear
in mind:
=over 2
=item 1 Do NOT rely on these in any code outside of this module.
All data members are prefixed with an underscore to signify that they
are private.  Always use accessor methods. If the accessor doesn't
exist or is inadequate, create or modify an accessor (and let me know,
too!).
=item 2 This documentation may be incomplete and out of date.
It is easy for this documentation to become obsolete as this module is
still evolving.  Always double check this info and search for members
not described here.
=back
An instance of Bio::Tools::RestrictionEnzyme.pm is a blessed reference
to a hash containing all or some of the following fields:
 FIELD          VALUE
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 _rev     : The corrected reverse complement of the fully expanded pattern.
 INHERITED DATA MEMBERS:
 _seq     : (From Bio::Seq.pm) The original, unexpanded input sequence after untainting.
 _type    : (From Bio::Seq.pm) 'Dna' or 'Amino'
