skbio.sequence.RNA.is_reverse_complement¶

RNA.is_reverse_complement(other)[source]¶

Determine if a sequence is the reverse complement of this sequence.

State: Stable as of 0.4.0.

Parameters:

Parameters:	other : str, Sequence, or 1D np.ndarray (np.uint8 or ‘\|S1’) Sequence to compare to.
Returns:	bool `True` if other is the reverse complement of the nucleotide sequence.
Raises:	TypeError If other is a `Sequence` object with a different type than the nucleotide sequence.

other : str, Sequence, or 1D np.ndarray (np.uint8 or ‘|S1’)

Sequence to compare to.

Returns:

bool

True if other is the reverse complement of the nucleotide sequence.

Raises:
