testPeaks: An example dataset of 5 peaks

Description Usage Format Source

Description

A example dataset of 5 genomic coordinates representing peaks in a hypothetical genome. This dataset is intended to be mapped to the features in the testGenes object. This object was imported from the BED file at inst/extdata/testPeaks.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 peak is on.

Start

The left endpoint of the peak.

End

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

Name

The name given to the peak.

Score

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

Strand

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