getHumanTSS: Get Human Transcription Start Sites

In diffloop: Identifying differential DNA loops from chromatin topology data

Description

getHumanTSS returns a GRanges object of all transcription start sites for humans. Regions from hg19/Gr37 for protein coding regions.

Usage

getHumanTSS(chr)

## S4 method for signature 'missing'
getHumanTSS(chr)

## S4 method for signature 'character'
getHumanTSS(chr)

Arguments

chr	Specifies what chromosomes are desired for the TSS#'

Details

This function returns a GRanges object with the coordinates and gene TSS. The start and end of the IRanges slot will be the same number, so consider using the padGRanges function after calling this function.

Value

A GRanges object

Examples

# Grab all transition start sites genome-wide
human.TSS <- getHumanTSS()
