# Bio::DB::GFF::Aggregator::coding(3pm)

## NAME

Bio::DB::GFF::Aggregator::coding -- The Coding Region Aggregator

## SYNOPSIS

```
  use Bio::DB::GFF;
  # Open the sequence database
  my $db      = Bio::DB::GFF->new( -adaptor => 'dbi:mysql',
                                   -dsn     => 'dbi:mysql:elegans42',
                                   -aggregator => ['coding'],
                                 );
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Aggregator method: coding
 Main method:       mRNA
 Sub methods:       CDS
 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
```

## DESCRIPTION

Bio::DB::GFF::Aggregator::coding aggregates "CDS" features into a feature called "coding" and was written to be compatible with the Sequence Ontology canonical gene.  The CDS features are expected to belong to a parent of type "mRNA," but the aggregator will work even if this isn't the case.
