Ivan,
As you probably already realized, the first error you encountered was do to a misuse of the seqlengths function since function objects (e.g. BSgenome) have no sequence lengths.

# Here is the problem
seqlengths(Z) <- seqlengths(BSgenome)[names(seqlengths(Z))]
Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable) :
unable to find an inherited method for function "seqlengths", for
signature "function"

The second error is the result of a failed validity check on the modified object. All ranges stored in a GRanges object must be between 1 and seqlengths(object) if the seqlengths information is non-NAs.

# Here is a second attempt that also fails
seqlengths(Z) <- seqlengths(Mmusculus)[names(seqlengths(Z))]
Error in validObject(.Object) :
invalid class "GRanges" object: slot 'ranges' contains values
outside of sequence bounds

Compare the results of range(Z), which returns the min start and max end for each of the seqnames in Z, and compare it with seqlengths(Mmusculus)[names(seqlengths(Z))]. This should provide you with some insight as to which ranges are out of bounds. Perhaps your intervals are 0-based instead of 1-based?


Cheers,
Patrick

Hello listers,

Is anybody having trouble assigning seqlengths() to a GRanges instance
with the new GenomicRanges version?


This morning I upgraded my GenomicRanges from 0.0.9 to 0.1.17 and
since then I am unable to assign chromosome lengths to any of my tag
sets from my Illumina 36 nucleotide sequences.

On Friday this worked. Let me show you how it complains now:

Z<- import('millionsoftags.bed.gz', 'bed')

Z<- as(Z, 'GRanges')

class(Z)
[1] "GRanges"
attr(,"package")
[1] "GenomicRanges"

Z
GRanges with 23293177 ranges and 2 elementMetadata values

As you can see, I haven't had the chance to mess the data.
Any idea how to circumvent this problem?

Thank you,

Ivan
