GeneDesign::RestictionEnzymes

VERSION

Version 3.00

DESCRIPTION

GeneDesign functions for handling restriction enzyme recognition sites

Functions

define_sites()

Generates a set of hash references containing information about the 
restriction enzyme library. All have the enzyme name as a key. 
  REGEX : ref to array containing regex-ready representations of enzyme 
          recognition site
  CLEAN : the recognition site as a string
  TABLE : the recognition site with cleavage annotation
  SCORE : usually the price
  TYPE  : whether the enzyme leaves 5', 3', or blunt ends, and whether or not 
          the enzyme leaves a 1bp overhang
  METHB : which methylation pattern blocks cleavage
  METHI : which methylation pattern inhibits cleavage
  STAR  : whether or not the enzyme has star activity
  TEMP  : optimal operating temperature for cleavage
  VEND  : which vendors supply the enzyme
in: enzyme list as a file path
out: hash of hash references

overhang()

define_site_status()

Generates a hash describing a restriction count of a nucleotide sequence.
in: nucleotide sequence as a string
    reference to a hash containing enzyme names as keys and regular
      expressions in a reference to an array as values
      (SITE_REGEX from define_sites)
out: reference to a hash where the keys are enzyme names and the value is a 
      count of their occurence in the nucleotide sequence

siteseeker()

Generates a hash describing the positions of a particular enzyme's recognition
sites in a nucleotide sequence.
in: nucleotide sequence as a string,
    an enzyme recognition site as a string, 
    reference to an array containing enzyme regular expressions
out: reference to a hash where the keys are positions and the value is the 
    recognition site from that position as a string.

filter_sites()

mutexclu()

first_base()

report_RE()

build_suffix_tree()

Builds two suffix trees from a list of restriction enzyme recognition sites
in: array of enzyme names,
    reference enzyme hash
out: array of suffix trees, one for forward orientaion, one for reverse

search_suffix_tree()

Working on a Bio::Seq::Feature::Store DB

search_DNA()

overhangP()

overhangA()
