splitRegions: Split Regions

In regioneR: Association analysis of genomic regions based on permutation tests

Description

Splits a region set A by both ends of the regions in a second region set B.

Usage

splitRegions(A, B, min.size=1, track.original=TRUE)

Arguments

A	a region set in any of the formats accepted by toGRanges (GenomicRanges, data.frame, etc...)
B	a region set in any of the formats accepted by toGRanges (GenomicRanges, data.frame, etc...)
min.size	numeric value, minimal size of the new regions
track.original	logical indicating if you want to keep the original regions and additional information in the output

Value

A GRanges with the splitted regions.

Examples

A <- data.frame(chr=1, start=c(1, 15, 24, 40, 50), end=c(10, 20, 30, 45, 55))

B <- data.frame(chr=1, start=c(2, 12, 28, 35), end=c(5, 25, 33, 43))

splits <- splitRegions(A, B)
