[BioSQL-l] How to get a Seq object from Bio::DB::Persistent::Seq

[Daniel Lang]

Hi,
I'm retrieving sequences out of a biosql db using Bio::DB::Query's...
When calling the next_object function on the QueryResult, you get the
persistence object for seq.
I want to copy the object into a fresh seq object, to add new data and
store it afterwarts as a new entry with a different namespace.
The solution I´m using now is quite awkward...I copy it using SeqIO:(
Is there a method to retrieve seq objects directly?

Additionally, I'm quite confused by the mapping of bioperl objects to
biosql tables(e.g. for generating a Bio:Query with datacollections):
connections like bioenty<->seqI are obvious, but the rest?
Is there a something like a overview list of the object mapping?

A example script for Query and Constraints would be great:)

Thanks in advance

Daniel
