Arguments

symbols	A character object with gene symbols to retain. If NULL, will return all genes. Default is NULL.
expand	Distance from TSS to expand. If a single value is provided, will use this values in both directions. If two values are provided, they will be used to expand regions in the 5' and 3' direction relative to transcription direction. Default is 5000.
