translated {FindMyFriends} | R Documentation

## Check the sequence type of the pangenome

### Description

This method checks whether the genes in the pangenome are on translated form (amino acid sequences) or not. A return value of FALSE only indicates that the storage mode for the genes is not an AAStringSet. While this leaves room for both RNA-, DNA- and BStringSet, only DNAStringSet makes much sense and is therefore assumed

### Usage

    translated(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'pgVirtual'
    translated(object)

### Arguments

`object` | A pgVirtual subclass

### Value

A boolean indicating whether genes are translated (TRUE) or not (FALSE)

### Methods (by class)

- `pgVirtual`: Sequence type check for pgVirtual subclasses

### Examples

    testPG <- .loadPgExample()

    # Genes are translated
    translated(testPG)

    # ... and therefore returned as AAStringSet instead of DNAStringSet
    class(genes(testPG, subset=1))
