getCytobands: Add chromosome cytobands and chromosome arms to TapestriExperiment

Description

getCytobands() retrieves the chromosome arm and cytoband for each probe based on stored positional data and saves them in rowData. This is run automatically as part of createTapestriExperiment(). Note: Some downstream smoothing and plotting functions may fail if chromosome arms are not present in rowData.

Usage

getCytobands(TapestriExperiment, genome = "hg19", verbose = TRUE)

Value

TapestriExperiment object with rowData updated to include chromosome arms and cytobands.

Arguments

TapestriExperiment

TapestriExperiment object.

genome

Character, reference genome to use. Only hg19 is currently supported.

verbose

Logical, if TRUE (default), progress is output as message text.

Examples

Run this code
tap.object <- newTapestriExperimentExample() # example TapestriExperiment object
tap.object <- getCytobands(tap.object, genome = "hg19")
