Bio::CodonUsage::Table(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Bio::CodonUsage::Table(3)

Bio::CodonUsage::Table - for access to the Codon usage Database at http://www.kazusa.or.jp/codon.

  use Bio::CodonUsage::Table;
  use Bio::DB::CUTG;
  use Bio::CodonUsage::IO;
  use Bio::Tools::SeqStats;

  # Get  a codon usage table from web database
  my $cdtable = Bio::DB::CUTG->new(-sp => 'Mus musculus',
                                   -gc => 1);

  # Or from local file
  my $io      = Bio::CodonUsage::IO->new(-file => "file");
  my $cdtable = $io->next_data();

  # Or create your own from a Bio::PrimarySeq compliant object,
  # $codonstats is a ref to a hash of codon name /count key-value pairs
  my $codonstats = Bio::Tools::SeqStats->count_codons($Seq_objct);

  # '-data' must be specified, '-species' and 'genetic_code' are optional
  my $CUT = Bio::CodonUsage::Table->new(-data    => $codonstats,
                                        -species => 'Hsapiens_kinase');

  print "leu frequency is ", $cdtable->aa_frequency('LEU'), "\n";
  print "freq of ATG is ", $cdtable->codon_rel_frequency('ttc'), "\n";
  print "abs freq of ATG is ", $cdtable->codon_abs_frequency('ATG'), "\n";
  print "number of ATG codons is ", $cdtable->codon_count('ATG'), "\n";

This class provides methods for accessing codon usage table data.

All of the methods at present are simple look-ups of the table or are derived from simple calculations from the table. Future methods could include measuring the codon usage of a sequence , for example, or provide methods for examining codon usage in alignments.

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.

  http://bioperl.org/wiki/Mailing_lists  - About the mailing lists

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

bioperl-l@bioperl.org

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.

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the web:

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

 Title   : new
 Usage   : my $cut = Bio::CodonUsage::Table->new(-data => $cut_hash_ref,
                                                 -species => 'H.sapiens_kinase'
                                                 -genetic_code =>1);
 Returns : a reference to a new  Bio::CodonUsage::Table object
 Args    : none or a reference to a hash of codon counts. This constructor is
           designed to be compatible with the output of
           Bio::Tools::SeqUtils::count_codons()
           Species and genetic code parameters can be entered here or via the 
           species() and genetic_code() methods separately.

 Title   : all_aa_frequencies
 Usage   : my $freq = $cdtable->all_aa_frequencies();
 Returns : a reference to a hash where each key is an amino acid
           and each value is its frequency in all proteins in that
           species.
 Args    : none

 Title   : codon_abs_frequency
 Usage   : my $freq = $cdtable->codon_abs_frequency('CTG');
 Purpose : To return the frequency of that codon as a percentage
           of all codons in the organism. 
 Returns : a percentage frequency
 Args    : a non-ambiguous codon string

 Title   : codon_rel_frequency
 Usage   : my $freq = $cdtable->codon_rel_frequency('CTG');
 Purpose : To return the frequency of that codon as a percentage
           of codons coding for the same amino acid. E.g., ATG and TGG
           would return 100 as those codons are unique.
 Returns : a percentage frequency
 Args    : a non-ambiguous codon string

 Title    : probable_codons
 Usage    : my $prob_codons = $cd_table->probable_codons(10);
 Purpose  : to obtain a list of codons for the amino acid above a given
            threshold % relative frequency
 Returns  : A reference to a hash where keys are 1 letter amino acid  codes
            and values are references to arrays of codons whose frequency
            is above the threshold.
 Arguments: a minimum threshold frequency

 Title    : most_common_codons
 Usage    : my $common_codons = $cd_table->most_common_codons();
 Purpose  : To obtain the most common codon for a given amino acid
 Returns  : A reference to a hash where keys are 1 letter amino acid codes
            and the values are the single most common codons for those amino acids
 Arguments: None

 Title   : codon_count
 Usage   : my $count = $cdtable->codon_count('CTG');
 Purpose : To obtain the absolute number of the codons in the
           organism. 
 Returns : an integer
 Args    : a non-ambiguous codon string

 Title   : get_coding_gc
 Usage   : my $count = $cdtable->get_coding_gc(1);
 Purpose : To return the percentage GC composition for the organism at
           codon positions 1,2 or 3, or an average for all coding sequence
          ('all').
 Returns : a number (%-age GC content) or 0 if these fields are undefined
 Args    : 1,2,3 or 'all'.

 Title   : set_coding_gc
 Usage   : my $count = $cdtable->set_coding_gc(-1=>55.78);
 Purpose : To set the percentage GC composition for the organism at
           codon positions 1,2 or 3, or an average for all coding sequence
           ('all').  
 Returns : void
 Args    : a hash where the key must be 1,2,3 or 'all' and the value the %age GC
           at that codon position..

 Title     : species
 Usage     : my $sp = $cut->species();
 Purpose   : Get/setter for species name of codon table
 Returns   : Void or species name string
 Args      : None or species name string

 Title     : genetic_code
 Usage     : my $sp = $cut->genetic_code();
 Purpose   : Get/setter for genetic_code name of codon table
 Returns   : Void or genetic_code id, 1 by default
 Args      : None or genetic_code id, 1 by default if invalid argument.

 Title   : cds_count
 Usage   : my $count = $cdtable->cds_count();
 Purpose : To retrieve the total number of CDSs used to generate the Codon Table
           for that organism. 
 Returns : an integer
 Args    : none (if retrieving the value) or an integer( if setting ).

 Title   : aa_frequency
 Usage   : my $freq = $cdtable->aa_frequency('Leu');
 Purpose : To retrieve the frequency of an amino acid in the organism
 Returns : a percentage
 Args    : a 1 letter or 3 letter string representing the amino acid

 Title   : common_codon
 Usage   : my $freq = $cdtable->common_codon('Leu');
 Purpose : To retrieve the frequency of the most common codon of that aa
 Returns : a percentage
 Args    : a 1 letter or 3 letter string representing the amino acid

 Title   : rare_codon
 Usage   : my $freq = $cdtable->rare_codon('Leu');
 Purpose : To retrieve the frequency of the least common codon of that aa
 Returns : a percentage
 Args    : a 1 letter or 3 letter string representing the amino acid
