Start-Start Constraint Element

Add the Start-Start constraint to two algorithm elements. Let’s denote these elements as alg1 and alg2.

Parameters in GUI

ParameterDescriptionDefault Value
Min distanceMinimum distance between an alg1 annotation start and an alg2 annotation start.0bp
Max distanceMaximum distance between an alg1 annotation start and an alg2 annotation start.0bp

Constraint Explanation:

Let:

  • alg1_annot_start := the first nucleotide of an annotation obtained from alg1.
  • alg2_annot_start := the first nucleotide of an annotation obtained from alg2.

The resulting annotations should comply with the rule:

Min distance <= Distance(alg1_annot_start, alg2_annot_start) <= Max distance

Parameters in Schema File

Type: distance

Distance-type: start-to-start
