Genes positions

Description

Positions of human genes in bed format (Start is 0-based and End is 1-based). These data were downloaded from Biomart on the Ensembl website with the GRCh37 and GRCh38 versions. Only genes present in GnomAD were kept.

Data contain the Chr, the Start position, the End position and the Name of all the genes in chromosomes 1 to 22 representing 19375 and 18278 genes in the two GRCh versions respectively.

Usage

data(genes.b37)
data(genes.b38) 

Format

The data contain one dataframe with four columns:

Chr

The chromosome of the gene

Start

The start position of the gene (0-based)

End

The end position of the gene (1-based)

Name

The name of the gene

Source

The data were obtained from the Ensembl website.
