[Bioperl-l] [Bioperl -l] Setting Sequence with nonstandard characters

Hi,

I wonder if anyone could tell me how to set a sequence with
non-standard characters?

I would like to use the string "???AGCTAGTAC" as a sequence string but
when I set it using
$string = "???AGCTAGTAC";
$seq->seq($string);

I get an exception complaining that the sequence doesn't look healthy.
Is there any way I can turn this check of?

Thanks for any help 

Iain
