[Bioperl-l] about gene "boundaries"

[Chris Fields]

By local DB, do you mean a BioPerl-based local DB?  Or is it something else?  This is a bit vague.

On the BioPerl side I suggest looking into Bio::DB::SeqFeature::Store for storing and querying genome information (it does exactly what you want if the proper information is loaded), or maybe the Ensembl Perl API, which can be used with a local or remote Ensembl setup.  Beyond that you'll need to be more specific.

I have my human genome in a local DB and some "from-to" data sets corresponding to different chromosomes. So i want to get the DNA seqs for these from-to's. I know i can do that the normal way but if there is a way to do it with BioPerl it will be more consistent with the rest of the code.
