Shorten tRNA name strings for display.

Strips source prefixes (e.g., host-, phage-), the tRNA- prefix, and the gene-copy suffix (-\d+-\d+) to produce compact labels suitable for plot axes.

Usage

shorten_trna_names(x, strip_prefix = "^(host|phage)-")

Arguments

x

Character vector of tRNA name strings.

strip_prefix

Regex pattern for source prefixes to remove. Default "^(host|phage)-".

Value

Character vector of shortened names (e.g., "host-tRNA-Ser-CGT-1-1" becomes "Ser-CGT").

Examples

shorten_trna_names("host-tRNA-Ser-CGT-1-1")
#> [1] "Ser-CGT"
shorten_trna_names(c("phage-tRNA-Glu-TTC-2-1", "tRNA-Ala-AGC-3-1"))
#> [1] "Glu-TTC" "Ala-AGC"
