translate pattern from IUPAC Extended Genetic Alphabet to regular expression

Description

translate pattern containing the IUPAC nucleotide ambiguity codes to regular expression. For example,Y->[C|T], R-> [A|G], S-> [G|C], W-> [A|T], K-> [T|U|G], M-> [A|C], B-> [C|G|T], D-> [A|G|T], H-> [A|C|T], V-> [A|C|G] and N-> [A|C|T|G].

Usage

translatePattern(pattern)

Arguments

pattern

a character vector with the IUPAC nucleotide ambiguity codes

Value

a character vector with the pattern represented as regular expression
