# Let the code begin...


package Bio::SeqFeature::Gene::UTR;

# Object preamble - inherits from Bio::Root::Root

use Bio::SeqFeature::Gene::NC_Feature;

@ISA = qw(Bio::SeqFeature::Gene::NC_Feature);

=head2 primary_tag

 Title   : primary_tag
 Usage   : $tag = $feat->primary_tag()
 Function: Returns the primary tag for a feature,
           eg 'utr5prime'.  This method insures that 5prime/3prime information
           is uniformly stored
 Returns : a string 
 Args    : none

=cut

sub primary_tag{
   my ($self,$val) = @_;
   if( defined $val ) {
       if ($val =~ /(3|5)/ ) { $val = "utr$1prime" }
       else { $self->warn("tag should contain indication if this is 3 or 5 prime.  Preferred text is 'utr3prime' or 'utr5prime'.  Using user text of '$val'");}
   }
   $self->SUPER::primary_tag($val);
