Hello, I created a GRangesList of 3'UTRs and GappedAlignments of a BAM file using the following code: _____________________ library(GenomicRanges); library(Rsamtools); library(leeBamViews) library ("GenomicFeatures") txdb <- makeTranscriptDbFromUCSC(genome="mm9", tablename="knownGene") # # It remembers the transcript ids. so can be used later p3UTRs <- threeUTRsByTranscript(txdb, use.names=TRUE) # read the bam alignment aligns <- readGappedAlignments ("Dend_accepted_hits_sorted.bam")
-------------------------------------- However, when I try to get the countOverlaps, I get the following error: > c <- countOverlaps (p3UTRs, aligns) Error in queryHits(findOverlaps(query, subject, maxgap = maxgap, type = type)) : error in evaluating the argument 'x' in selecting a method for function 'queryHits' I suspect that this happens as the sequence names, "chrUn_random chrX_random chrY_random" etc which are present in the GRangeslist, p3UTRs are not present in the GappedAlignement objects. My questions is: 1. Can I make countOverlaps to choose only those intervals in which there are entries in both the objects? 2. How do I subjset GRangeList (p3UTRs) to include entries from specific list of chromosomes of interest only? -best -Lax > sessionInfo() R version 2.12.0 (2010-10-15) Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0/x86_64 (64-bit) locale: [1] en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/C/C/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8 attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] GenomicFeatures_1.2.1 leeBamViews_0.99.11 BSgenome_1.18.2 [4] Biobase_2.10.0 Rsamtools_1.2.0 Biostrings_2.18.0 [7] GenomicRanges_1.2.3 IRanges_1.8.2 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] biomaRt_2.6.0 DBI_0.2-5 RCurl_1.4-3 RSQLite_0.9-2 [5] rtracklayer_1.10.5 tools_2.12.0 XML_3.2-0 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ Bioc-sig-sequencing mailing list Bioc-sig-sequencing@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioc-sig-sequencing
