NAME

GO::Model::Association;

SYNOPSIS

# print all gene products associated with a GO::Model::Term
my $assoc_l = $term->association_list;
foreach my $assoc (@$assoc_l) {
  printf "gene product:%s %s %s (evidence: %s)\n",
    $assoc->gene_product->symbol,
    $assoc->is_not ? "IS NOT" : "IS",
    $term->name,
    map {$_->code} @{$assoc->evidence_list};
}

DESCRIPTION

Represents an association between a GO term (GO::Model::Term) and a gene product (GO::Model::GeneProduct)

Returns -
Args    -

add_evidence

Usage   - $assoc->add_evidence($my_evid);
Returns -
Args    - GO::Model::Evidence

evidence_list

Usage   - my $ev_l = $assoc->evidence_list;
Returns -
Args    -

gets/sets arrayref of GO::Model::Evidence

evidence_as_str

Usage   - print $assoc->evidence_as_str
Usage   - print $assoc->evidence_as_str(1); #verbose
Returns -
Args    - verbose

concatenates evcodes together, for display

has_evcode

Usage   - if $assoc->has_evcode("IEA");
Returns - boolean
Args    - evcode [string]

remove_evcode

Usage   - $assoc->remove_evcode("IEA");
Returns - 
Args    - evcode [string]

removes all evidence of the specified type from the association; useful for filtering

evidence_score

Usage   - my $score = $assoc->evidence_score
Returns - 0 <= float <= 1
Args    -

returns a score for the association based on the evidence;

This is an EXPERIMENTAL method; it may be removed in future versions.

The evidence fields can be thought of in a loose hierachy:
