[Biococoa-dev] RNA vs. DNA

[John Timmer]

Okay, simple question that's arising out of fear alone:

If I want to create the RNA equivalents of the symbol and sequence classes,
is there anything I'd need to do aside from a find and replace with
"uridine" for "thymidine" and "U" for "T"?  Are ambiguous bases also used
for RNA?

The reason I'm asking is that I'm gradually realizing that formalizing the
translation code would be easiest to do working with DNA and RNA in
parallel, and from the BioCocoa perspective, RNA doesn't exist at the
moment.  Figure I might as well fix that omission.


Cheers,

John
