genomic_distribution {MutationalPatterns} | R Documentation

## Find overlaps between mutations and a genomic region.

### Description

Function finds the number of mutations that reside in genomic region and takes surveyed area of genome into account.

### Usage

    genomic_distribution(vcf_list, surveyed_list, region_list)

### Arguments

`vcf_list` | A GRangesList or a list with VCF GRanges objects.
`surveyed_list` | A GRangesList or a list with GRanges of regions of the genome that have been surveyed (e.g. determined using GATK CallableLoci).
`region_list` | A GRangesList or a list with GRanges objects containing locations of genomic regions.

### Value

A data.frame containing the number observed and number of expected mutations in each genomic region.

`read_vcfs_as_granges`

### Examples

    ## See the 'read_vcfs_as_granges()' example for how we obtained the
    ## following data:
    vcfs <- readRDS(system.file("states/read_vcfs_as_granges_output.rds",
                    package="MutationalPatterns"))

    ## Use biomaRt to obtain data.
    ## We can query the BioMart database, but this may take a long time,
    ## so we take some shortcuts by loading the results from our
    ## examples. The corresponding code for downloading the data can be
    ## found above the command we run.
