testGenes: An example dataset of 5 genes

Description Usage Format Source

Description

A example dataset of 5 genomic coordinates representing genes in a hypothetical genome. This dataset is intended for annotating the peaks in the testPeaks object. This object was imported from the BED file at inst/extdata/testGenes.bed using importBED.

Usage

1

Format

A dataframe with 5 rows and 6 columns, representing the first 6 fields of a standard BED file. Note that unlike in BED format, where intervals are right-open, the base pair given in "End" is actually included in the feature. The 6 columns are:

Chr

The chromosome the gene is on.

Start

The left endpoint of the gene.

End

The right endpoint of the gene. Unlike standard BED format, this position is actually included in the gene.

Name

The name given to the gene.

Score

An arbitrary numeric value that can be given to different genes in BED format (e.g. quality scores).

Strand

The strand of the gene: + for forward strand, - for reverse strand, and . for no strand information, in which case PeakMapper treats this gene as being on the forward strand.
