tablecode {seqinr}R Documentation

to plot genetic code as in textbooks

Description

This function plots a genetic code table as in textbooks, that is following the order T > C > A > G so that synonymous codons are almost always in the same boxes.

Usage

tablecode(numcode = 1, urn.rna = s2c("TCAG"), dia = FALSE, latexfile = NULL,
label = latexfile, size = "normalsize", caption = NULL,
preaa = rep("", 64), postaa = rep("", 64), 
precodon = preaa, postcodon = postaa)

Arguments

numcode The genetic code number as in translate
urn.rna The letters to display codons, use s2c("UCAG") if you want the code in terms of RNA sequence
latexfile The name of a LaTex file if you want to redirect the output
label The label for the LaTeX table
size The LaTex size of characters for the LaTeX table
preaa A sting to insert before the amino-acid in the LaTeX table
postaa A sting to insert after the amino-acid in the LaTeX table
precodon A sting to insert before the codon in the LaTeX table
postcodon A sting to insert after the codon in the LaTeX table
caption The caption of the LaTeX table
dia to produce a yellow/blue plot for slides

Details

The codon order for preaa, postaa, precodon, and postcodon should be the same as in paste(paste(rep(s2c("tcag"), each =16), s2c("tcag"), sep = ""), rep(s2c("tcag"), each = 4), sep = "")
