Package variables
No package variables defined.
Inherit
Bio::LocatableSeq Bio::Map::Position
Synopsis
    use Bio::Map::PositionWithSequence;

my $pos = Bio::Map::PositionWithSequence->new(-map => $map,
-element => $element,
-start => 0,
-seq => 'ATGC');
Description
Have a position with a sequence, eg. define what the binding site sequence of
a certain transcription factor binding site is by modelling it as one of these
objects with the -element assigned to a Bio::Map::TranscriptionFactor instance.

 Title   : new
Usage : my $obj = Bio::Map::PositionWithSequence->new();
Function: Builds a new Bio::Map::PositionWithSequence object
Returns : Bio::Map::PositionWithSequence
Args : -map => Bio::Map::GeneMap object
-element => Bio::Map::Gene object
-relative => Bio::Map::GeneRelative object
-seq => string, length of this string will set the length
of this position's range
* If this position has no range, or if a single value can describe the range * -value => scalar : something that describes the single point position or range of this Position, most likely an int * Or if this position has a range, at least two of * -start => int : value of the start co-ordinate -end => int : value of the end co-ordinate -length => int : length of the range

 Title   : seq
Usage : my $string = $obj->seq();
Function: Get/set the sequence as a string of letters.
Returns : scalar
Args : Optionally on set the new value (a string). An optional second
argument presets the alphabet (otherwise it will be guessed).

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem
with code and data examples if at all possible.
