[Bioperl-l] Overlapping sets of coordinates?

[Bob Freeman]

No alignment -- I used PASA to generate (properly) align transcripts against a genome. Among the PASA outputs is a tab-delimited file that lists the alignments of all my input transcripts in an almost GFF3 file like format. So I need to iterate through the alignments that are valid (one of the columns) and see if any of these match (overlap, include, etc) the coordinates of certain gene models.

I'd like to know which transcripts overlap a given set of coordinates (e.g. coordinates for a certain gene model). Is there an easy way to ascertain overlap, non-overlap, partial overlap, etc. in BioPerl??
