Convert an amino acid sequence from a letter to an integer representation
SeqInt = aa2int(SeqChar)
| SeqChar | Amino acid sequence represented with letters. Enter a character string with characters from the table Mapping Amino Acid Letters to Integers (unknown characters are mapped to 0). Integers are arbitrarily assigned to IUB/IUPAC letters. You can also enter a structure with a field Sequence. |
| SeqInt | Amino acid sequence represented with numbers. |
SeqInt = aa2int(SeqChar)converts a character string of amino acids (SeqChar) to a 1-by-N array of integers (SeqInt) using the table Mapping Amino Acid Letter to Integers.
