plot_transcripts {chimeraviz} | R Documentation |
This function takes a fusion object and an ensembldb object and plots transcripts for both genes, showing which parts of each genes are included in the fusion event. If the bamfile parameter is set, then the coverage is plotted beneath the transcripts.
plot_transcripts(fusion, edb = NULL, bamfile = NULL, which_transcripts = "exonBoundary", non_ucsc = TRUE, ylim = c(0, 1000), reduce_transcripts = FALSE, bedgraphfile = NULL)
fusion |
The Fusion object to plot. |
edb |
The edb object that will be used to fetch data. |
bamfile |
The bamfile with RNA-seq data. |
which_transcripts |
This character vector decides which transcripts are to be plotted. Can be "exonBoundary", "withinExon", "withinIntron", "intergenic", or a character vector with specific transcript ids. Default value is "exonBoundary". |
non_ucsc |
Boolean indicating whether or not the bamfile used has UCSC- styled chromosome names (i.e. with the "chr" prefix). Setting this to true lets you use a bamfile with chromosome names like "1" and "X", instead of "chr1" and "chrX". |
ylim |
Limits for the coverage y-axis. |
reduce_transcripts |
Boolean indicating whether or not to reduce all transcripts into a single transcript for each partner gene. |
bedgraphfile |
A bedGraph file to use instead of the bamfile to plot coverage. |
Creates a fusion transcripts plot.
