export.bed12 {GenomicInteractions} | R Documentation

## Export interactions in BED12 format.

### Description

Export interactions in BED12 format.

### Usage

    export.bed12(GIObject, fn = NULL, score = "counts")

    ## S4 method for signature 'GInteractions'
    export.bed12(GIObject, fn = NULL,
      score = "counts")

### Arguments

`GIObject` | A GInteractions object.
`fn` | A filename to write the object to
`score` | Which metadata column to export as score Exports a GInteractions object to BED12 format, and writes to a specified file. If filename is not specified, then a data.frame containing the information is returned. Bed12 files provide a method for visualising interactions, it is not a good format for storing all of the data associated with an interaction dataset, particularly for trans-chromosomal interactions, which can only be stored in the bed12 names field.

### Value

invisible(1) if outputting to file or a data.frame containing all of the corresponding information

### Examples

    data(hic_example_data)
    export.bed12(hic_example_data, fn = tempfile(), score = "counts")
