Synopsis
See documentation of methods.
Description
A feature representing a predicted exon. This class actually inherits
off Bio::SeqFeature::Gene::Exon and therefore has all that
functionality (also implements Bio::SeqFeatureI), plus a few methods
supporting predicted features, like various scores and a
significance. Even though these were inspired by GenScan results, at
least a subset should be generally useable for exon prediction
results.

 Title   : coding_signal_score
Usage : $sc = $obj->coding_signal_score();
$obj->coding_signal_score($evalue);
Function: Get/Set a score for the exon coding signal (e.g., coding potential).
Returns :
Args :
end_signal_scorecodeprevnextTop
 Title   : end_signal_score
Usage : $sc = $obj->end_signal_score();
$obj->end_signal_score($evalue);
Function: Get/Set a score for the exon end signal (donor splice site
or termination signal).
Returns :
Args :
predicted_cdscodeprevnextTop
 Title   : predicted_cds
Usage : $predicted_cds_dna = $exon->predicted_cds();
$exon->predicted_cds($predicted_cds_dna);
Function: Get/Set the CDS (coding sequence) as predicted by a program.
This method is independent of an attached_seq. There is no guarantee whatsoever that the returned CDS has anything to do (e.g., matches) with the sequence covered by the exons as annotated through this object. Example : Returns : A Bio::PrimarySeqI implementing object holding the DNA sequence defined as coding by a prediction of a program. Args : On set, a Bio::PrimarySeqI implementing object holding the DNA sequence defined as coding by a prediction of a program.
predicted_proteincodeprevnextTop
 Title   : predicted_protein
Usage : $predicted_protein_seq = $exon->predicted_protein();
$exon->predicted_protein($predicted_protein_seq);
Function: Get/Set the protein translation as predicted by a program.
This method is independent of an attached_seq. There is no guarantee whatsoever that the returned translation has anything to do with the sequence covered by the exons as annotated through this object, or the sequence returned by predicted_cds(), although it should usually be just the standard translation. Example : Returns : A Bio::PrimarySeqI implementing object holding the protein translation as predicted by a program. Args : On set, a Bio::PrimarySeqI implementing object holding the protein translation as predicted by a program.

 Title   : significance
Usage : $evalue = $obj->significance();

 Title   : start_signal_score
Usage : $sc = $obj->start_signal_score();
$obj->start_signal_score($evalue);
Function: Get/Set a score for the exon start signal (acceptor splice site
or initiation signal).
Returns :
