Description

This function splid genome into a equaly-sized user defined genomic intervals.

  bsgenome = NULL,
  fai = NULL,
  chromosomes,
  binsize = 1e+05,
  stepsize = binsize/2
)

Arguments

bsgenome	A reference genome to get lengths of genomic sequences (eg. GRCh38).
fai	A FASTA index to get lengths of genomic sequences.
chromosomes	A user defined set of chromosomes for binning (eg. 'chr1')
binsize	A size of the genomic bin to split genome into.
stepsize	A size of the genomic interval to move each bin. For non-overlapping bins use the same size as binsize.

Value

A GRanges-class object with resized original set of ranges.
