Instance Method Details

#cut(sequence, *args) ⇒ Object

See main documentation for Bio::RestrictionEnzyme

cut takes into account permutations of cut variations based on competitiveness of enzymes for an enzyme cutsite or enzyme bindsite on a sequence.

Example:

FIXME add output

Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Analysis.cut('gaattc', 'EcoRI')

_same as:_

Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Analysis.cut('gaattc', 'g^aattc')

Arguments

  • sequence: String kind of object that will be used as a nucleic acid sequence.

  • args: Series of enzyme names, enzymes sequences with cut marks, or RestrictionEnzyme objects.

Returns

Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Fragments object populated with Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Fragment objects. (Note: unrelated to Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Range::SequenceRange::Fragments) or a Symbol containing an error code

Bio::RestrictionEnzyme.cut is preferred over this!

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

This is a simpler version of method cut. cut takes into account permutations of cut variations based on competitiveness of enzymes for an enzyme cutsite or enzyme bindsite on a sequence. This does not take into account those possibilities and is therefore faster, but less likely to be accurate.

This code is mainly included as an academic example without having to wade through the extra layer of complexity added by the permutations.

Example:

FIXME add output

Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Analysis.cut_without_permutations('gaattc', 'EcoRI')

_same as:_

Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Analysis.cut_without_permutations('gaattc', 'g^aattc')

Arguments

  • sequence: String kind of object that will be used as a nucleic acid sequence.

  • args: Series of enzyme names, enzymes sequences with cut marks, or RestrictionEnzyme objects.

Returns

Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Fragments object populated with Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Fragment objects. (Note: unrelated to Bio::RestrictionEnzyme::Range::SequenceRange::Fragments)
