Name

       SWISS::ACs

Description

       SWISS::ACs represents the AC (accession) lines within an SWISS-PROT + TrEMBL entry as
       specified in the user manual http://www.expasy.org/sprot/userman.html .

       The SWISS-PROT format has recently been changed to multiple AC lines.  This module will
       read

        Ordinary AC lines
           AC   P10585;

        The old temporary format (for internal use only)
           AC   Q57333; O08291; O08202; O08292; O08203; O08293; O08204; O08294;
           **   O08205; O08295; O08206; O08296; O08207; O08297; O08208; O08298;
           **   O08213;

        and the new format.
           AC   Q57333; O08291; O08202; O08292; O08203; O08293; O08204; O08294;
           AC   O08205; O08295; O08206; O08296; O08207; O08297; O08208; O08298;
           AC   O08213;

       But, SWISS::ACs will DROP funny ** comment lines that are sometimes found following an AC
       line:

           AC   Q48558; P71434;
           **   MERGED 2 TREMBL ENTRIES.

       This module will always write the new format with multiple AC lines.

Attributes

       "list"
           This is an array containing a list of all the accession numbers associated with this
           entry.  The first member will be the primary accession number, and any following are
           the secondary accession numbers.

Methods

   Standard methods
       new
       fromText
       toText
       sort
           This method sorts the secondary AC numbers alphanumerically, i.e.  all but the first.
           The primary AC number must never be sorted.
