PING_nucleosome_ranges: Ranges associated to nucleosomes detected by the PING...

In consensusSeekeR: Detection of consensus regions inside a group of experiences using genomic positions and genomic ranges

Description

Ranges associated to nucleosomes detected by the PING software using syntetic reads generated using a normal distribution with a variance of 20 for regions chr1:10000-15000.

Usage

data(PING_nucleosome_ranges)

Format

A GRanges containing one entry per detected nucleosome. The ranges are surronding the nucleosomes present in the dataset PING_nucleosome_positions. The genomic ranges have been obtained by adding 73 bps on both sides of the detected positions.
