Description

This function overlaps results from a list of MethQTLResults and returns the union of all the input data points used.

Usage

getOverlapUniverse(meth.qtl.res, type)

Arguments

meth.qtl.res	An object of type MethQTLResult-class or a list of such objects
type	The type of annotation to be overlapped. Needs to be 'SNP', 'CpG' or 'cor.block'

Value

A list with two GRanges objects, one containing the overlapped set and the other the union of input data points as elements 'all.qtl' and 'all.input'
