dna2codon: Convert DNA to 3-base codons

In jmw86069/splicejam: Analysis and Visualization of Gene Splice Variants and Transcriptome Data

Convert DNA to 3-base codons

Description

Convert DNA to 3-base codons

Usage

dna2codon(x, ...)

Arguments

x	character vector assumed to contain DNA or RNA nucleotides
...	additional arguments are ignored.

Details

This function takes character string input, either as one large string or vector of strings such as those read from a FASTA file, and returns a vector of 3-base codons. The final codon must contain all three character values otherwise it is removed.

Value

character vector where each element contains three characters, e.g. all(nchar(dna2codon(x)) == 3).

Examples

dna <- c("atgggattatag");
dna2codon(dna);

# example adding one extra base, which does not make a full codon
dnaext1 <- c("atgggattataga");
dna2codon(dnaext1);
