0.5.0 (2016-02-20)
- Separated
ssDNA
(single-stranded) andDNA
(implicitly double-stranded) classes. Convert between them using.to_ds()
and.to_ss()
methods, respectively. coral.Primer
instances now containssDNA
instances, notDNA
.feature_type
is now an optional argument when initializing newFeature
instances. The default is 'misc_feature'.- Added
to_feature()
convenience method tocoral.DNA
for generating a feature from a givenDNA
instance. - Fixed an issue where
coral.analysis.tm
returned an arcane message when the input is a non-DNA character. - Fixed an issue where read_sequencing returned
ssDNA
. - Overhauled alignment and Sanger sequencing analysis modules. Added support
for using the MAFFT command-line tool as an alignment method, located at
coral.analysis.MAFFT
. Added MAFFT as an option for the Sanger analysis class. Added a new function,needle_msa
, that generates a reference-aligned MSA representation of a set of Needleman-Wunsch pairwise alignments. Addedcoral.analysis.substitution_matrices
module, which adds a SubstitutionMatrix class for easily specifying customized substitution matrices for Needleman-Wunsch alignment as well as built-in matrices such as BLOSUM62, DNA, and DNA_SIMPLE. - dev note: started using zest.releaser to automate releases.
0.4.1-0.4.3
- Bugfixes to 0.4.0 (brown-bag style bugs, fixed immediately after elease).
0.4.0
- Renamed
coral.DNA.rotate()
method tocoral.DNA.rotate_to()
. - Created new
coral.DNA.rotate()
method that rotates a sequence 'counter-clockwise', acting as a deque. - Created new
coral.DNA.rotate_to_feature
, which rotates a sequence to a given feature's start location. - Created new
coral.DNA.excise
feature, which removes a feature's sequence from a circular DNA object, generating a linear product (useful for swapping out features). - Improved
coral.DNA
__getitem__
behavior. - Added .material property to all sequence types for pseudo-type checking.
- Made
coral.DNA.top()
andcoral.DNA.bottom()
methods into properties (coral.DNA.top
andcoral.DNA.bottom
) that can be overwritten and accessed directly. - Replaced
coral.DNA.topology
andcoral.DNA.stranded
properties (which were strings) with boolean-valued.circular
and.ds
values, respectively. - Re-wrote (and renamed) the
coral.analysis.NUPACK
andcoral.analysis.ViennaRNA
packages to be more feature-complete. - Fixed an issue where re-running
coral.DNA.display()
in a Jupyter notebook resulted in non-updated text labels.
0.3.3
- Added Python 2 version check to prevent installation on Python 3.
0.3.2
- Removed cython dependencies entirely to ease installation.
0.3.1
- Fixed issues with PCR simulation and annealing, can now handle all cases of primer directionality and overlaps, linear and circular templates.
- Added pyx to package manifest for case where user already has cython installed.
0.3.0
- Separated out annealing behavior into analysis function (
analysis.anneal
). - Functions that use annealing (e.g.
reaction.pcr
) can now accept partial annealing + overhang matches due to annealing overhaul. - Gibson reactions now retain features of the inputs.
- Added
strip()
method tocoral.DNA
. - Installation now works on Mac OS X.
- Made most dependencies optional.
- Fixed issue where features were not being copied, resulting in unexpected behavior (assign by reference vs. value).
- Fixed an issue where slicing the last N bases of a sequence (e.g.
y =x[-4:]
) would modify the feature locations of the parent (x
).
0.2.1
- Added HISTORY.md (this file) changelog.
- Fixed version bump issue, added javascript to manifest, added dev-requirements.txt.
0.2.0
- plasmid visualizations for iPython notebooks using
coral.DNA.display
. - features are now searchable using
coral.DNA.select_features
. seqio.read_dna
now keeps all feature qualifiers when reading genbank files (thanks @eyu-bolthreads!).
0.1.0
Initial Release.
