Is there any class that allows for the storing of chimeric reads? I had a look at the reference manual of GenomicAlignments and the class GAlignments can store only 1 chromosome per read.

You could look at the chimera package. Also might try the GAlignmentsList class where each list element could hold copies of the read on different chromosomes. As an fyi the GAlignmentPairs class can now hold pairs from different chromosomes. Maybe not useful for the current problem but possibly in the future.

Chimera does have a function starReads, but that only keeps the starting position of a read and also discards the strand information.

readGAlignmentsList, however, keeps all of the necessary details and is the best option for this task.
