Re: [Gusdev-gusdev] DoTS:NAEntry and topology

[Chris S. <sto...@pc...>]

Hi Fidel,

What are you trying to get from LOCUS?
Here's an example for the kit gene (maybe you can send me a more 
relevant one for you).
LOCUS       NM_021099               5132 bp    mRNA    linear   ROD 
20-DEC-2003
Is it the "linear" info?
I agree that NAEntry table would be a good place for this and I would 
recommend that the NAEntry table have a "topology" attribute added.
I'm guessing that this information was lost because it's not something 
that we at CBIL use.
My understanding is that nothing should should break by adding this 
column but would like others to confirm (Steve? Angel?)
I also don't think that you would need to add set/get methods just 
alter the existing one for NAEntry.
