README for Bio::LiveSeq::IO
LiveSeq objects representing known gene structures and their sequences
have to be created from nucleotide sequence files. The current IO
files do it by reading in EMBL entries and parsing out sequences as
well as CDS, exon and primary_transcript features from the feature
table.
Bio::LiveSeq::IO::Loader
is a superclass holding methods common to other methods.
Bio::LiveSeq::IO::BioPerl
is the preferred method which uses Bio::DB::EMBL to retrive
sequences over the Web by accession number.
Bio::LiveSeq::IO::SRS
outdated, removed from distribution 13 Jan 2006
retrieves sequences from a local installation of SRS. It needs
srsperl.pm which is part of SRS. SRS is short for Sequence
Retrieval System, a comprehensive program suite for indexing
and serving biological databases. SRS is a product of Lion
BioSciences (http://www.lionbio.co.uk/). The license for
academic users is free.
