NAME

       Bio::Cluster::FamilyI - Family Interface

SYNOPSIS

           # see the implementations of this interface for details

           my $cluster= $cluster->new(-description=>"POLYUBIQUITIN",
                                      -members    =>[$seq1,$seq2]);
           my @members = $cluster->get_members();
           my @sub_members = $cluster->get_members(-species=>"homo sapiens");

DESCRIPTION

       This interface if for a Family object representing a family of biological objects. A
       generic implementation for this may be found a Bio::Cluster::Family.

   Mailing Lists
       User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send
       your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list.  Your participation
       is much appreciated.

   Support
       Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

       rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will
       be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description
       of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.

        -family_id         the name of the family
        -description       the consensus description of the family
        -annotation_score  the confidence by which the consensus description is
                           representative of the family
        -members           the members belonging to the family
        -alignment         the multiple alignment of the members
