Create gene annotation object

createGeneAnnotation(
  window,
  TxDb = TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene::TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene,
  longest = TRUE
)

Arguments

window

GRanges object with coordinates to use for selecting the genes to plot.
TxDb

TxDb object to use for drawing the genomic annotation.
longest

Logical indicating whether to plot only the longest transcripts for each gene in the gene annotation plot.

Value

GRanges object with the gene annotation in the window.

Examples

library(TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene)

#> Loading required package: GenomicFeatures
#> Loading required package: AnnotationDbi
window <- GRanges("chr16:11298262-11400036")
gene_anno <- createGeneAnnotation(
    window = window,
    TxDb = TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene
)
