Method Detail

getStoichiometryString

public static String getStoichiometryString(List<SubunitCluster> clusters)

Return a canonical String representation of the stoichiometry of a group of Subunits.

This method only uses alphabetic charaters for Subunit ids. For stoichiometries with a large number of entities, ? will be used when all alphabetic characters are used.

Parameters:

clusters - List of Subunit clusters

Returns:

String representation of the stoichiometry

isPseudoStoichiometric

public static boolean isPseudoStoichiometric(List<SubunitCluster> clusters)

A pseudostoichiometric SubunitCluster was obtained using the SubunitClustererMethod.STRUCTURE similarity.

Parameters:

clusters -

Returns:

true if any of the clusters is pseudostoichiometric, false otherwise
