Defined in file seqalign.asn
C++ class: CSpliced_seg


Spliced-seg ::= SEQUENCE {
    -- product is either protein or transcript (cDNA)
    product-id Seq-id OPTIONAL,
    genomic-id Seq-id OPTIONAL,

    -- should be 'plus' or 'minus'
    product-strand Na-strand OPTIONAL ,
    genomic-strand Na-strand OPTIONAL ,
    
    product-type ENUMERATED {
        transcript(0),
        protein(1)
    },

    -- set of segments involved
    -- each segment corresponds to one exon
    -- exons are always in biological order
    exons SEQUENCE OF Spliced-exon ,

    -- start of poly(A) tail on the transcript
    -- For sense transcripts:
    --   aligned product positions < poly-a <= product-length
    --   poly-a == product-length indicates inferred poly(A) tail at transcript's end
    -- For antisense transcripts:
    --   -1 <= poly-a < aligned product positions
    --   poly-a == -1 indicates inferred poly(A) tail at transcript's start
    poly-a INTEGER OPTIONAL,

    -- length of the product, in bases/residues
    -- from this (or from poly-a if present), a 3' unaligned length can be extracted
    product-length INTEGER OPTIONAL,

    -- alignment descriptors / modifiers
    -- this provides us a set for extension
    modifiers SET OF Spliced-seg-modifier OPTIONAL
