new
Title : new
Usage : $exon1 = Bio::LiveSeq::Exon-> new(-seq => $objref,
-start => $startlabel,
-end => $endlabel, -strand => 1);
Function: generates a new Bio::LiveSeq::Exon
Returns : reference to a new object of class Exon
Errorcode -1
Args : two labels and an integerget_Transcript
Title : get_Transcript
Usage : $transcript = $obj->get_Transcript()
Function: retrieves the reference to the object of class Transcript (if any)
attached to a LiveSeq object
Returns : object reference
Args : none
Note : only Exons that compose a Transcript (i.e. those created out of
a CDS Entry-Feature) will have an attached Transcript
