Interface Table

All Known Implementing Classes:

IUPACParser.IUPACTable

public interface Table

Provides a way of separating us from the specific IUPACParser.IUPACTable even though this is the only implementing class for the interface.

Nested Class Summary

Nested Classes

Modifier and Type	Interface	Description
static class	Table.CaseInsensitiveTriplet	Class used to hold three nucleotides together and allow for equality to be assessed in a case insensitive manner.
static class	Table.Codon	Instance of a Codon which is 3 NucleotideCompounds, its corresponding AminoAcidCompound and if it is a start or stop codon.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
CompoundSet<Table.Codon>	getCodonCompoundSet(CompoundSet<NucleotideCompound> rnaCompounds, CompoundSet<AminoAcidCompound> aminoAcidCompounds)
List<Table.Codon>	getCodons(CompoundSet<NucleotideCompound> nucelotides, CompoundSet<AminoAcidCompound> aminoAcids)
boolean	isStart(AminoAcidCompound compound)	Returns true if the given compound could have been a start amino acid; this does not assert if the codon that actually coded for the amino acid was a start codon.

Method Detail

getCodons

List<Table.Codon> getCodons(CompoundSet<NucleotideCompound> nucelotides,
                            CompoundSet<AminoAcidCompound> aminoAcids)

getCodonCompoundSet

CompoundSet<Table.Codon> getCodonCompoundSet(CompoundSet<NucleotideCompound> rnaCompounds,
                                             CompoundSet<AminoAcidCompound> aminoAcidCompounds)

isStart

boolean isStart(AminoAcidCompound compound)

Returns true if the given compound could have been a start amino acid; this does not assert if the codon that actually coded for the amino acid was a start codon. This is as accurate a call as we can make with an AminoAcidCompound.
