## Caenorhabditis elegans full genome (UCSC version ce2)

### Description

Caenorhabditis elegans full genome as provided by UCSC (ce2, Mar. 2004) and stored in Biostrings objects.

### Note

This BSgenome data package was made from the following source data files:

    chromFa.zip
    upstream1000.zip
    upstream2000.zip
    upstream5000.zip
    from http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/ce2/bigZips/

See `?BSgenomeForge` and the BSgenomeForge vignette (`vignette("BSgenomeForge")`) in the BSgenome software package for how to make a BSgenome data package.

### Examples

    Celegans
    seqlengths(Celegans)
    Celegans$chrI  # same as Celegans[["chrI"]]

    if ("AGAPS" %in% masknames(Celegans)) {

      ## Check that the assembly gaps contain only Ns:
      checkOnlyNsInGaps <- function(seq)
      {
        ## Replace all masks by the inverted AGAPS mask
        masks(seq) <- gaps(masks(seq)["AGAPS"])
        af <- alphabetFrequency(seq)
        found_letters <- names(af)[af != 0]
        if (any(found_letters != "N"))
            stop("assembly gaps contain more than just Ns")
      }

      ## A message will be printed each time a sequence is removed
      ## from the cache:
      options(verbose=TRUE)

      for (seqname in seqnames(Celegans)) {
        cat("Checking sequence", seqname, "... ")
        seq <- Celegans[[seqname]]
        checkOnlyNsInGaps(seq)
        cat("OK\n")
      }
