KEGGgraph (version 1.30.0)

KEGGEdge-class: Class 'KEGGEdge'

Description

A class to represent 'relation' elements in KGML files and edge objects in a KEGG graph

Objects from the Class

Objects are normally created by parseRelation function, which is not intended to be called by user directly

Slots

entry1ID:

The entryID of the first KEGGNode

entry2ID:

The entryID of the second KEGGNode

type:

The type of the relation, see getType-methods

subtype:

The subtype(s) of the edge, a list of KEGGEdgeSubType

Methods

getEntryID

signature(obj = "KEGGEdge"): Get entryIDs of the edge in the order specified by the direction of the edge

getType

signature(object = "KEGGEdge"): Get the relation type

getName

signature(object = "KEGGEdge"): Get the names of edges in the convention of Rgraphviz, 'node1~node2'

show

signature(object = "KEGGEdge"): Show method
