In cmcouto-silva/gt: Facilities for essential tasks in R

Description

This function updates a vector of genes annotated with ANNOVAR, and keep only the ones inside or near the respective annotated gene. Also, it removes the parentheses with distance and other information.

Usage

update_dist_genes(genes, thres = 10000, rm_gene_info = TRUE)

Arguments

genes	Character vector. A vector of genes annotated with ANNOVAR.
thres	Integer. A single integer to set the maximum allowed distance (bp) from the annotated gene to keep it or not. Default set to 10kb.
rm_gene_info	Logical. If TRUE (default), gene info within parantheses will be removed.

Value
