Literal Sequence Expression

A literal sequence expression is a literal representation of a Sequence.

Definition and Information Model

Note

This data class is at a trial use maturity level and may change in future releases. Maturity levels are described in the GKS Maturity Model.

Computational Definition

An explicit expression of a Sequence.

GA4GH Digest

Prefix	Inherent
None	[‘sequence’, ‘type’]

Information Model

Some LiteralSequenceExpression attributes are inherited from Sequence Expression.

Field	Flags	Type	Limits	Description
id		string	0..1	The ‘logical’ identifier of the Entity in the system of record, e.g. a UUID. This ‘id’ is unique within a given system, but may or may not be globally unique outside the system. It is used within a system to reference an object from another.
name		string	0..1	A primary name for the entity.
description		string	0..1	A free-text description of the Entity.
aliases	⋮	string	0..m	Alternative name(s) for the Entity.
extensions	⋮	Extension	0..m	A list of extensions to the Entity, that allow for capture of information not directly supported by elements defined in the model.
type		string	1..1	MUST be “LiteralSequenceExpression”
sequence		sequenceString	1..1	the literal sequence
