Subset of Alu genomic location dataset (hg38)

Description

A GRanges dataset containing 500 Alu sequences that have CpGs profiled by both Illumina 450k and EPIC array. The variables are as follows:

Usage

Alu.hg38.demo

Format

A GRanges object.

Details

  • seqnames: chromosome number

  • ranges: hg38 genomic position

  • strand: DNA strand

  • swScore: Smith Waterman (SW) alignment score

  • repName: Alu name

  • repClass: Alu class

  • repFamily: Alu family

  • Index: internal index (meaningless for external use; not communicable between genome builds)

Alu.hg38.demo has the same format as the data object returned by fetchRMSK.
