Package 'EpiTxDb' reference manual

Title:	Storing and accessing epitranscriptomic information using the AnnotationDbi interface
Description:	EpiTxDb facilitates the storage of epitranscriptomic information. More specifically, it can keep track of modification identity, position, the enzyme for introducing it on the RNA, a specifier which determines the position on the RNA to be modified and the literature references each modification is associated with.

EpiTxDb objects

Description

The EpiTxDb class is a AnnotationDb type container for storing Epitranscriptomic information.

The information are typically stored on a per transcript and not as genomic coordinates, but the EpiTxDb class is agnostic to this. In case of genomic coordinates transcriptsBy will return modifications per chromosome.

Creating a `EpiTxDb` from user supplied annotations as `data.frame`s

Description

makeEpiTxDb is a low-level constructor for creating a EpiTxDb object from user supplied annotations.

This functions typically will not be used by regular users.

Usage

makeEpiTxDb(
  modifications,
  reactions = NULL,
  specifiers = NULL,
  references = NULL,
  metadata = NULL,
  reassign.ids = FALSE
)
makeEpiTxDb(
  modifications,
  reactions = NULL,
  specifiers = NULL,
  references = NULL,
  metadata = NULL,
  reassign.ids = FALSE
)

Arguments

modifications

A data.frame containg the following columns:

mod_id: a unique integer value per modification.
mod_type: the modification type as a character or factor value. Must be a value from shortName(ModRNAString()).
mod_name: a character or factor name for the specific modification
mod_start: the start position for the modification as integer value. Usually mod_start = mod_end
mod_end: the end position for the modification as integer value. Usually mod_start = mod_end
mod_strand: the strand information for the modificaion as a character or factor.
sn_id: a integer value per unique sequence
sn_name: a character or factor as sequence name, e.g a chromosome or a transcript identifier like chr1.

The first six are mandatory, whereas one of the last two has to be set. sn_id will be generated from sn_name, if sn_id is not set.

reactions

An optional data.frame containg the following columns:

mod_id: a integer value per modification and the link to the modification data.frame.
rx_genename: a character or factor referencing a genename for the enzyme incorporating the modification.
rx_rank: a integer for sorting enzyme reactions, if multiple enzymes are involved in the modification's incorporation/maintenance.
rx_ensembl: a character or factor with an ensembl identifier for the genename of the enzyme.
rx_ensembltrans: a character or factor with an ensembl identifier for the transcript being translated into the enzyme.
rx_entrezid: a character or factor with an entrezid for the genename of the enzyme.

(default: reactions = NULL)

specifiers

An optional data.frame containg the following columns:

mod_id: a integer value per modification and the link to the modification data.frame.
spec_type: a character or factor referencing a type of specifier, e.g. snoRNA. Not checked for validity.
spec_genename: a character or factor referencing a genename for the specifier directing an enzyme to the specific location for the modification to be incorporated.
spec_ensembl: a character or factor with an ensembl identifier for the genename of the specifier.
spec_ensembltrans: a character or factor with an ensembl identifier for the transcript being translated into the specifier.
spec_entrezid: a character or factor with an entrezid for the genename of the specifier.

(default: specifiers = NULL)

metadata

An optional data.frame containg the following columns:

name: a character value used as name
value: a character value

This dataframe will be returned by metadata() (default: metadata = NULL)

reassign.ids

TRUE or FALSE Controls how internal mod_ids should be assigned. If reassign.ids is FALSE (the default) and if the ids are supplied, then they are used as the internal ids, otherwise the internal ids are assigned in a way that is compatible with the order defined by ordering the modifications first by chromosome, then by strand, then by start, and finally by end.

Create a `EpiTxDb` object from tRNAdb resources

Description

makeEpiTxDbFromtRNAdb will make use of the tRNAdb online resources and extract the modification information from the RNA database.

If a named DNAStringSet is provided as sequences, the result from the tRNAdb will be matched against the sequences. Valid matches will be used as transcript identifiers and returned after a check of modification compatibility with the provided sequence. By this process multiple copies of transcripts can be associated with a single modification.

makeEpiTxDbFromtRNAdb uses the functions provided by the tRNAdbImport package. import.tRNAdb will be used with database = "RNA" and the three different values for origin.

Usage

gettRNAdbDataAsGRanges(
  organism,
  sequences = NULL,
  dbURL = tRNAdbImport::TRNA_DB_URL
)

makeEpiTxDbFromtRNAdb(
  organism,

Shift `GRanges` coordinates based on another `GRanges` object

Description

shiftGenomicToTranscript shifts positions of a GRanges object based on coordinates of another GRanges object. The most common application is to shift genomic coordinates to transcript coordinates, which is reflected in the name. shiftTranscriptToGenomic implements the reverse operation.

Matches are determined by findOverlaps for shiftGenomicToTranscript and by findMatches for shiftTranscriptToGenomic using the seqnames of the subject and the names of tx.

Usage

shiftTranscriptToGenomic(subject, tx)

shiftGenomicToTranscript(subject, tx)

## S4 method for signature 'GRanges,GRangesList'

shiftGenomicToTranscript(subject, tx)

## S4 method for signature 'GRanges,GRangesList'
shiftTranscriptToGenomic(subject, tx)

## S4 method for signature 'GRangesList,GRangesList'

## S4 method for signature 'GRanges,GRangesList'
shiftGenomicToTranscript(subject, tx)

## S4 method for signature 'GRangesList,GRangesList'

Arguments

a GRanges or GRangesList object

tx

a named GRangesList object.

Value

Examples

library(GenomicRanges)
# Construct some example data
subject1 <- GRanges("chr1", IRanges(3, 6),
                    strand = "+")
subject2 <- GRanges("chr1", IRanges(c(17,23), width=3),
                    strand = c("+","-"))
subject3 <- GRanges("chr2", IRanges(c(51, 54), c(53, 59)),
                    strand = "-")
subject <- GRangesList(a=subject1, b=subject2, c=subject3)
tx1 <- GRanges("chr1", IRanges(1, 40),
               strand="+")
tx2 <- GRanges("chr1", IRanges(10, 30),
               strand="+")
tx3 <- GRanges("chr2", IRanges(50, 60),
               strand="-")
tx <- GRangesList(a=tx1, b=tx2, c=tx3)

# shift to transcript coordinates. Since the third subject does not have
# a match in tx it is dropped with a warning
shifted_grl <- shiftGenomicToTranscript(subject,tx)

# ... and back
shifted_grl2 <- shiftTranscriptToGenomic(shifted_grl,tx)

# comparison of ranges work. However the seqlevels differ
ranges(shifted_grl2) == ranges(subject[list(1,c(1,1),c(1,2))])
