up to how many bases upstream of annotated genomic
features should chers be counted as related to that feature (see
details)
verbose
logical; extended output to STDOUT?
Value
An object of class cherList with for each cher the elements
typeUpstream and typeInside filled in with the names
of the features that have been related to.
Details
chers will be counted as related to genomic features, if
their middle position is located between start and end
position of the feature
their middle position is located not more than argument
upstream bases upstream of the feature start
.
One can visualize such cher-feature relations as a graph using
the Bioconductor package Rgraphviz.
See the script 'graphChers2Transcripts.R' in Ringo's scripts
directory for an example.
