Add gaps between GRanges regions

Description

Add gaps between GRanges regions

Usage

addGRgaps(
  gr,
  strandSpecific = TRUE,
  gapname = "gap",
  suffix = "_v",
  newValues = list(feature_type = "gap"),
  default_feature_type = "exon",
  feature_type_colname = "feature_type",
  doSort = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

gr	GRanges object
strandSpecific	logical indicating whether the gaps are calculated per strand, see getGRgaps().
gapname, suffix	character vector supplying the name to assign to new gap GRanges elements, using jamba::makeNames() with suffix as described to define non-duplicated names. If gapname is NULL then no names are assigned to new gap GRanges entries, however when the input gr GRanges object has names, the concatenation of gaps causes names "" to be assigned to all gap GRanges elements, which are duplicated for multiple gaps.
newValues	list of values to add to the resulting gap GRanges, whose names become colnames(gr), and whose values are used to populate each column. By default a colname "feature_type" is added, with value "gap" added to each row. When newValues is NULL then no values are added to the gaps GRanges.
doSort	logical indicating whether to sort the resulting GRanges object. When doSort=FALSE the gaps are added to the end of the gr input GRanges object.
...	additional arguments are passed to getGRgaps().

Details

This function adds gaps between each GRanges region where there is a gap between two GRanges for the same seqnames. When strandSpecific=TRUE the gaps are determined per strand.

This function is a wrapper around getGRgaps(), which is then concatenated to the input gr GRanges object using base::c(). When the input gr has column S4Vectors::values() then the gaps GRanges object will have NA values used by default. To supply values, use the newValues argument, which assigns name-value pairs.

Value

GRanges object, sorted when doSort=TRUE. When newValues is supplied, the values for gaps GRanges elements will be assigned, otherwise any column values present in gr will be NA for gaps elements. The names of gaps elements are assigned using gapname then are made unique using jamba::makeNames(), unless gapname is NULL.
