We're using (perhaps incorrectly) the VirtualSequence and
SequencePiece tables to represent chromosomal assemblies of scaffolds
(stored in ExternalNASequence).
1) VirtualSequence has a required sequence_version attribute - what
is this for? Is this redundant to external_database_release_id?
2) VirtualSequence has a clob for storing the assembled sequence (I
suspect), but the Perl object layer doesn't use this slot, instead
rebuilding the sequence from the sequence pieces. Am I correct in
this usage, or should I not, in fact, be storing the assembled
sequence in VirtualSequence?
Thanks,
-Aaron
