ExomeDepth (version 1.1.10)

AnnotateExtra: Add annotations to a ExomeDepth object

Description

Takes annotations in the GRanges format and adds these to the CNV calls in the ExomeDepth object.

Usage

AnnotateExtra(x, reference.annotation, min.overlap = 0.5, column.name = "overlap")

Arguments

x

An ExomeDepth object.

reference.annotation

The list of reference annotations in GRanges format.

min.overlap

The minimum fraction of the CNV call that is covered by the reference call to declare that there is a significant overlap.

column.name

The name of the column used to store the overlap (in the slot CNV.calls).

Value

A ExomeDepth object with the relevant annotations added to the CNVcalls slot.

Details

A recent version of GenomicRanges (> 1.8.10) is required. Otherwise the function will return a warning and not update the ExomeDepth object.
