Bio::DB::CUTG - for access to the Codon usage Database at http://www.kazusa.or.jp/codon.
use Bio::CodonUsage::Table;
use Bio::DB::CUTG;
my $db = Bio::DB::CUTG->new(-sp =>'Pan troglodytes');
my $CUT = $db->get_request();
This class retrieves and objectifies codon usage tables either from the CUTG web database . The idea is that you can initially retrieve a CUT from the web database, and write it to file in a way that can be read in later, using the Bio::CodonUsage::IO module.
For a web query, two parameters need to be specified: species(sp) and genetic code id (gc). The database is searched using regular expressions, therefore the full latin name must be given to specify the organism. If the species name is ambiguous the first CUT in the list is retrieved. Defaults are Homo sapiens and 1(standard genetic code). If you are retrieving CUTs from organisms using other genetic codes this needs to be put in as a parameter. Parameters can be entered in the constructor or in the get_web_request ()method. Allowable parameters are listed in the $QUERY_KEYS hash reference variable.
I intend at a later date to allow retrieval of multiple codon tables e.g., from a wildcard search.

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.

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

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.

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _
Title : new Usage : my $db = Bio::DB::CUTG->new() Returns : a reference to a new Bio::DB::CUTG Args : hash of optional values for db query
Title : query_keys Usage : $db->query_keys() Purpose : To determine valid keys for parameters for db query. Returns : a reference to a hash describing valid query keys Args : none
Title : sp Usage : my $sp = $db->sp(); Purpose: Get/set method for species name Returns: void or species name string Args : None or species name string
Title : gc Usage : my $gc = $db->gc(); Purpose: Get/set method for genetic code id Returns: void or genetic code integer Args : None or genetic code integer
Title : get_request Usage : my $cut = $db->get_request(); Purpose: To query remote CUT with a species name Returns: a new codon usage table object Args : species name(mandatory), genetic code id(optional)
