Data::Type::Collection::Bio - datatypes for biology

SYNOPSIS

        print "found dna" if shift and is BIO::DNA;

        valid 'AUGGGAAAU',      BIO::RNA;
        valid 'ATGCAAAT',       BIO::DNA;

        try
        {
                typ ENUM( qw(DNA RNA) ), \( my $a, my $b );

                print "a is typ'ed" if istyp( $a );

                $a = 'DNA';             # $alias only accepts 'DNA' or 'RNA'
                $a = 'RNA';
                $a = 'xNA';             # throws exception

                untyp( $alias );
        }

                        $e->value,
                        $e->type->info,
                        $e->file,
