calculateMaxEntScanScore {ModCon} | R Documentation

## Calculate MaxEntScan score of a splice site sequence

### Description

This function calculates the MaxEntScan score of either splice donor (SD) or acceptor sequences (SA).

### Usage

    calculateMaxEntScanScore(seqVector, ssType)

### Arguments

`seqVector` | Character value of nucleotide sequence of a splice site sequence. SA sequences should be 23nt long (20 intronic, 3 exonic) and SD sequences should be 9nt long (3 exonic, 6 intronic). Only bases 'A', 'G', 'C', 'T' permitted.
`ssType` | Numeric value which indicates the type of splice site. Either '3' for an SA or '5' for an SD.

### Value

Numeric vector stating the MaxEntScan score per splice site sequence entered with `seqVector`

### Examples

    calculateMaxEntScanScore('TTCCAAACGAACTTTTGTAGGGA',3)
    calculateMaxEntScanScore('GAGGTAAGT',5)
