COSMIC_UCSC: Create one track of the genomic positions of variants from COSMIC

Description

Create one track of the genomic positions of variants from COSMIC, the "Catalogue Of Somatic Mutations In Cancer" using the Gviz bioconductor package

Usage

COSMIC_UCSC(gen, chr, start, end, showId=FALSE)

Arguments

gen

the name of the genome. Data is not currently available for GRCh38 (hg38)

chr

the chromosome of interest

start

the first position in the region of interest (the smallest value)

end

the last position in the region of interest (the largest value)

showId

Show the ID of the genetic elements

Value

An UcscTrack object of Gviz
