Bio::DB::Persistent::PrimarySeq - Proxy object for database PrimarySeq representations
Give standard usage here
This is a proxy object which will ferry calls to/from database for the heavy stuff (sequence data) while it stores the simple attributes in memory. This object is obtained from a DBAdaptor.
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.

Describe contact details here
The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _
Title : primary_key
Usage : $obj->primary_key($newval)
Function: Get/set the primary key value.
We override this here from PersistentObjectI in order to
propagate the primary key to a possibly attached PrimarySeq
object if PrimarySeqI is implemented by composition.
Example :
Returns : value of primary_key (a scalar)
Args : new value (a scalar, optional)
