breaks

Description

Method to extract "breaks" from a gChain mapping genome x to y i.e. pairs of positions that are contiguous in y but were non-contiguous in x

Returns a GRangesList in genome x containing the location of pairs of positions that are contiguous in y that were not contiguous in x.

Breaks are only defined in one direction (ie x to y) (if you want to do reverse then just "transpose" the chain, or use rev = TRUE)

Usage

breaks(x, ...)
