 Dear bioc-sig-sequencing,

I would like to annotate chip-seq peaks for the arabidopsis genome.  I note that 
GenomicFeatures (section 2.7.3 of the pdf file "Making & using TranscriptDb 
objects") is suggested for Chip-seq experiments.

I note a vignette dated Feb 5, 2010 uses a rangedData object, a vignette dated 
Feb 27, 2010 suggests a GRanges object.

My chip-seq peaks file was prepared following the handout from the 11/19/09 
presentation at a Seattle workshop titled 'A ChIP-Seq Data Analysis' which on 
page 10 produces a rangedData object.

Testing a rangedData object as described in the Feb 5th vignette with the 
mmusculusEnsembl object obtained from the BioMart sec. 2.2.2 produces an error:

rd <- RangedData(ranges = IRanges(start = c(244501,244553,244580,244523),
+                                 end = c(244533,244585,244612,244555)),
+                space = "chr5",
+                strand = "+")
transcriptsByRanges(mmusculusEnsembl, rd, 
columns=c("tx_id","tx_name","gene_id"))
Error in .txdbByRanges(txdb = txdb, ranges = ranges, restrict = 
match.arg(restrict),  :
  'ranges' must be a GRanges object

Would you suggest I convert my rangedData object (with chip-seq peaks data)to a 
GRanges object?  If so, can you suggest how?  Or should I modify step(s) in the 
chip-seq handout to produce a GRanges object?


Yep. Try 'as(rd, "GRanges")'.

Cheers,
H.



Thanks,
