| IntegerRangesList-methods {rtracklayer} | R Documentation |
Genomic coordinates are often specified in terms of a genome identifier,
chromosome name, start position and end
position. The rtracklayer package adds convenience methods to
IntegerRangesList for the manipulation of genomic ranges.
The spaces (or names) of IntegerRangesList are the chromosome names.
The universe slot indicates the genome, usually as given by UCSC
(e.g. “hg18”).
In the code snippets below,
x is a IntegerRangesList object.
chrom(x), chrom(x) <- value: Gets or sets the chromosome
names for x. This is an alias for
names(x).
