SUMMARY: NESTED | FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD | DETAIL: FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD |
Encapsulates the mapping from a source to a destination alphabet.
A TranslationTable is in effect a map or function with the source domain being getSourceAlphabet() and the target domain being getTargetAlphabet(). The method translate() maps a single symbol from source to target.
It is presumed that there will be some explicit declaration of the mapping for attomic symbols, and that the mapping for all other symbols will be infered from these.
If you wish to translate every symbol in a symbol list then use TranslatedSymbolList to automate the job. If you want to translate windowed regions then first construct a WindowedSymbolList from the original sequence and then build a TranslatedSymbolList from this windowed view.
There are a range of named tables available. Their names are specified by the public static final fields in this interface. Each table can be retrieved by calling the static method RNATools.getGeneticCode(name) which will return the appropriate TanslationTable instance.
