Example Human Exon Annotation Data

Description

Example human GRCh38 exon annotation data corresponding to all genes included in the hg38_gene_annotation example dataset. The dataset provides exon-level genomic coordinates that can be used for GRIN2 analyses of genomic lesion types restricted to exonic regions, such as coding single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and small insertions/deletions (indels). Exons were extracted from a single representative transcript for each gene, defined as the MANE Select transcript for protein-coding genes and the Ensembl canonical transcript for non-protein-coding genes.

Usage

data(example_exon_annotation)

Format

A data frame with 5,691 rows and 6 columns:

gene

Ensembl gene identifier of the gene to which each annotated exon belongs.

chrom

Chromosome on which the exon is located.

loc.start

Exon start position in base pairs.

loc.end

Exon end position in base pairs.

gene_name

Official gene symbol.

transcript_exon

Representative transcript identifier and exon number (e.g., ENST00000257818_exon1).

Source

Retrieved from the Ensembl BioMart database using get.ensembl.annotation() with the "Human-GRCh38" genome assembly (hg38). Exons were obtained from the MANE Select transcript for protein-coding genes and the Ensembl canonical transcript for non-protein-coding genes. The dataset contains exon annotations for all genes included in the hg38_gene_annotation example dataset.
