ok, perfect I did not know it!
Thanks
Francois
Hi Francois,
The engine by default will always return the first amino acid as an init met if
the amino acid could have been a start codon (but stupid atmo but it will be
altered). If you do not want this behaviour then you'll have to create your
own. You can do this using the following:
TranscriptionEngine e = new
TranscriptionEngine.Builder().initMet(false).build();
HTH,
Andy

Dear all,
i have a quick question about translation with biojava 3
I would like to retrieve that the codon CTA is coding for a leucine.
But some leucine codons code also for a start in Universal Genetic code
Here I have build a very short example:
given a short dna sequence coomposed of a start codon and 6 leucine codons
TranscriptionEngine e = TranscriptionEngine.getDefault();
DNASequence dd = new DNASequence("ATGTTGTTACTTCTCCTACTG");
//return MLLLLLL : OK
DNASequence dd = new DNASequence("CTATTGTTACTTCTCCTACTG");
//return MLLLLLL : KO I would prefer have LLLLLLL !
DNASequence dd = new DNASequence("CTA");
//return M : KO I would prefer have L !
Could someone explain me this feature ?
How the default transcritionEngine works?
How can I ask to the TranscriptionEngine give me the aminoacids corresponding
to CTA when it is not in first position?
Thanks a lot for your help !
Francois
