Hi i have ext_grn my badGr which ahve 253 ranges, m trying to remove location 6 and 10 that are out of bound. when i applied the above process on it it is still having 253 ranges.

I see. I'm not sure there's a super-easy way to drop ranges that fall outside of the bounds. trim() is expected to return an object of the same length as its input, so we might need a new function. Maybe Herve has some ideas?

Hi,

trim() uses internal helper GenomicRanges:::get_out_of_bound_index() to find the out-of-bound ranges. So you could use this on your GRanges object:

idx <- GenomicRanges:::get_out_of_bound_index(ext_grn)
if (length(idx) != 0L)
    ext_grn <- ext_grn[-idx]

We should probably expose and document get_out_of_bound_index(), and rename it in the process.

There might be an easy way to make a GRanges object for the chromosomes, but it wasn't readily apparent to me, so I did it the hard way. But the idea is to have a GRanges that encompasses the extent of the chromosomes, and then use subsetByOverlaps().

> library(TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene)
## get chrlengths - there must actually be an accessor I don't know abou
> con <- dbConnect(SQLite(), paste0(path.package("TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene"), "/extdata/TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene.sqlite"))
> chrs <- dbGetQuery(con, "select chrom, length from chrominfo limit 24;")
> chrGR <- GRanges(chrs[,1], IRanges(rep(1, 24), chrs[,2]))
## so chrGR is a GRanges that has start and end for all 24 chromosomes
> badGR <- GRanges(paste0("chr", c(1,2,3,4,5)), IRanges(c(249250600, 3,4,5,6), c(249250645, 6,7,8,9)))
## a 'bad' GRanges, where the first range extends past the end of chr1
> badGR
GRanges object with 5 ranges and 0 metadata columns:
      seqnames                 ranges strand
         <Rle>              <IRanges>  <Rle>
  [1]     chr1 [249250600, 249250645]      *
  [2]     chr2 [        3,         6]      *
  [3]     chr3 [        4,         7]      *
  [4]     chr4 [        5,         8]      *
  [5]     chr5 [        6,         9]      *
  -------
  seqinfo: 5 sequences from an unspecified genome; no seqlengths
## now remove all ranges that are not 'within' the chromosome boundaries
> subsetByOverlaps(badGR, chrGR, type="within")

Hi Jim,

FWIW, getting the sequence lengths out of a TxDb object is a one-liner:

seqlengths(TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene)

If you want the full Seqinfo:

seqinfo(TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene)

If you want it as a GRanges object (your chrGR object):

as(seqinfo(TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene), "GRanges")

Too easy I know ;-)

H.

Thanks Hervé! I figured it had to be something easy...

If your genome build is hg19 or some other key known to UCSC, you can do something like:

seqinfo(badGR) <- Seqinfo(genome="hg19")
goodGR <- trim(badGR)

It is super easy

a <- a[trim(a) == a]

If your GRanges a does not have seqinfo, assign it first (and do it always whenever you create any GRanges):

seqlevels(a) <- seqlevels(Mmusculus)
seqlengths(a) <- seqlengths(Mmusculus)
