This package provides functions for building GenomicState objects from diverse annotation sources such as Gencode. It also provides a way to load pre-computed GenomicState objects if you are working at JHPCE. These GenomicState objects are normally created using derfinder::makeGenomicState() and can be used for annotating regions with derfinder::annotateRegions() which are in turn used by derfinderPlot::plotRegionCoverage().

Documentation

For more information about GenomicState check the vignettes through Bioconductor or at the documentation website.

Installation instructions

Get the latest stable R release from CRAN. Then install GenomicState from Bioconductor using the following code:

if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) {
    install.packages("BiocManager")
}

BiocManager::install("GenomicState")
