<H1><A NAME="SECTION00060000000000000000">
How to create a new duplex structure</A>
</H1>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">1)</SPAN> Create a new package with the name of the structure. 
<BR>
<BR>
<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">2)</SPAN> Create a new instance variable 
<SPAN  CLASS="textit">private static HashMap&lt;String, Class&lt;? extends PatternComputationMethod&#187; newStructureMethod</SPAN>
of the class RegisterMethods in the melting.configuration package.

<P>
<PRE>
/**
* HasMap newStructureMethod : contains all the methods 
* for the new structure computation.
*/
	private static HashMap&lt;String, Class&lt;? extends 
	        PatternComputationMethod&gt;&gt; newStructureMethod = 
	new HashMap&lt;String, Class&lt;? extends PatternComputationMethod&gt;&gt;();
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">3)</SPAN> Create a new method in the RegisterMethod class to initialise the 
<SPAN  CLASS="textit">&lt;String, Class&lt;? extends PatternComputationMethod&#187; newStructureMethod</SPAN> you created. It must contains
all the relationships between the new model names and the matching implemented class:

<P>
<PRE>
private void initialisenewStructureMethods(){
		newStructureMethod.put("model1-Name", classModel1-Name.class);
		newStructureMethod.put("model2-Name", classModel2-Name.class);
		newStructureMethod.put("model3-Name", classModel3-Name.class);
		[...]
	}
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">4)</SPAN> Call this method in the constructor of RegisterMethod :

<P>
<PRE>
public RegisterMethods(){
		[...]
		
		initialisenewStructureMethods();
	}
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">5)</SPAN> Create a new <SPAN  CLASS="textit">public static final String</SPAN> as instance variable of the OptionManagement
class in the melting.configuration package. This String represents the new option name you choose
to change the default model used to compute the new structure.

<P>
<PRE>
/**
* Option name to choose another method to compute the 
* new structure.
*/
	public static final String newStructureOption-Name = 
	                                       "option-name";
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">6)</SPAN> Fix the default model name to use for each type of hybridization. You have to add
the following lines into the following methods of OptionManagement :

<P>
<PRE>
/**
* initialises the DNADefaultOptions HashMap of the 
* OptionManagement object.
*/
	private void initialisesDNADefaultOptions() {
		[...]
		this.DNADefaultOptions.put(newStructureOption-Name, 
		                          "DNA-defaultModel-Name");

	}
	
/**
* initialises the RNADefaultOptions HashMap of the 
* OptionManagement object.
*/
	private void initialiseRNADefaultOptions() {
		[...]
		this.RNADefaultOptions.put(newStructureOption-Name, 
		                          "RNA-defaultModel-Name");

	}
	
/**
* initialises the hybridDefaultOptions HashMap of the 
* OptionManagement object.
*/
	private void initialiseHybridDefaultOptions() {
		[...]
		this.hybridDefaultOptions.put(newStructureOption-Name, 
		                         "DNA/RNA-defaultModel-Name");
		
	}
	
/**
* initialises the mRNADefaultOptions HashMap of the 
* OptionManagement object.
*/
	private void initialiseMRNADefaultOptions() {
		[...]
		this.mRNADefaultOptions.put(newStructureOption-Name, 
		                          "mRNA-defaultModel-Name");

	}
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">7)</SPAN> Register the new option in the HashMap <SPAN  CLASS="textit">registerPatternModels</SPAN> of OptionManagement.
You just have to add this following line into the method <SPAN  CLASS="textit">private void initialiseRegisterPatternModels()</SPAN>
of OptionManagement :

<P>
<PRE>
/**
* Initialises the registerPatternModels HashMap of the OptionManagement object.
*/
private void initialiseRegisterPatternModels(){
	[...]
		
registerPatternModels.add(newStructureOption-Name);
}
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">8)</SPAN> Add in the method <SPAN  CLASS="textit">private void initialisePatternModels()</SPAN> of RegsiterMethods the
following line to register the new structure.

<P>
<PRE>
	private void initialisePatternModels(){
		[...]
		
		// It creates a relationship between the option name 
		// for the new structure and the HashMap containing 
		// the models and the class which can compute the new 
		// structure.
		PatternModel.put(OptionManagement.newStructureMethod, 
		                                 newStructureMethod);
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">9)</SPAN> Add a new method in the NucleotiSequences class in the melting.sequences package to be abble 
to recognize if a structure between two positions in the duplex matches the new structure you created.

<P>
<PRE>
// new method to recognize the new structure in the duplex
public boolean isNewStructure(int pos1, int pos2){

[if the subsequences between the positions pos1 and pos2
in the duplex match the new structure, you must return true.]

}
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">10)</SPAN> Create a new <SPAN  CLASS="textit">private PatternComputationMethod</SPAN> instance variable in the NearestNeighborMode
class in the melting.nearestNeighborMode package. This new instance represents an object PatternComputationMethod
which is a new instance of one of your implemented class which can compute the new structure.

<P>
<PRE>
/**
* PatternComputationMethod newStructureMethod : represents 
* the model for new structure computation.
*/
	private PatternComputationMethod newStructureMethod;
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">11)</SPAN> Create a new method in the NearestNeighborMode class to initialise the PatternComputationMethod 
newStructureMethod :

<P>
<PRE>
private void initialiseNewStructureMethod(){
		// Get the option name (public static final instance 
		// variable of OptionManagement) which allows to change 
		// the model to compute the new structure.
		String optionName = OptionManagement.newStructureOption-Name;
		
		// Get the model name (model name) which allows to change 
		// the model to compute the new structure and initialise the 
		// PatternComputationMethod newStructureMethod.
		String methodName = this.environment.getOptions().get(optionName);
		this.newStructureMethod = initialiseMethod(optionName, methodName);
	}
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">12)</SPAN> If the new structure you added contains perfectly matching base pairs, maybe you have to
change the method <SPAN  CLASS="textit">private int [] getPositionsPattern(int pos1)</SPAN> of the NearestNeighborMode class.
<BR>
<BR>
This method defines the positions of a structure in the duplex (a perfectly matching structure or a 
structure composed of non perfectly matching base pairs or composed of modified nucleic acid(s)). 
<BR>
<BR>
If you need the adjacent base pairs to the non perfectly matching base pair or the modified nucleic acid, 
you can add a method which corrects the positions of the structure in the duplex, in the class computing 
the new structure. (see the following example and the Javadoc)

<P>
<PRE>
private int[] correctPositions(int pos1, int pos2, 
                                int duplexLength){
		if (pos1 &gt; 0){
			pos1 --;
		}
		if (pos2 &lt; duplexLength - 1){
			pos2 ++;
		}
		int [] positions = {pos1, pos2};
		return positions;
	}
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">13)</SPAN> Change the method <SPAN  CLASS="textit">private PatternComputationMethod getAppropriatePatternModel(int [] positions)</SPAN>
of NearestNeighborMode to add your new structure initialisation.

<P>
<PRE>
// Method to get the adapted PatternComputationMethod to 
// compute the structure defined at the positions int [] 
// positions.
private PatternComputationMethod getAppropriatePatternModel
                                        (int [] positions){

// if the new structure is always a terminal structure, you 
// can change the method here.
if (positions[0] == 0 || positions[1] == 
         environment.getSequences().getDuplexLength() - 1){

[...]
  // call the NucleotidSequences method to recognize the identity 
  // of the new structure
  else if (environment.getSequences().isNewStructure(positions[0], 
                                                   positions[1])){
  
    if (this.newStructureMethod == null){
		initialiseNewStructureMethod(); // initialise the 
		                                //PatternComputationMethod
		                                // newStructureMethod
	}
	return this.newStructureMethod;
  }
}

// if the structure is not always a terminal structure, you can 
// change the method here.
[...]

  // call the NucleotidSequences method to recognize the identity 
  // of the new structure
  else if (environment.getSequences().isNewStructure(positions[0], 
                                                   positions[1])){
  
    if (this.newStructureMethod == null){
		initialiseNewStructureMethod(); // initialise the 
		                                //PatternComputationMethod
		                                // newStructureMethod
	}
	return this.newStructureMethod;
  }
  [...]
}
</PRE>

<P>
<SPAN  CLASS="textbf">14)</SPAN> Create the new class(es) representing your model(s) for the new structure as it is explained
in the section <SPAN  CLASS="textit">How to add new thermodynamic model</SPAN>.
