Make a assembly object for alternate TxDb, OrgDb,and BSgenome genomic annotation packages

assembly(
    Genome,
    TxDb,
    OrgDb,
    gene.id.column = "ENTREZID",
    display.column = "SYMBOL",
    BSgenome = NULL
)

Arguments

Genome

String indicating the name of the genome assembly.

TxDb

String of existing TxDb package name or a TxDb object.

OrgDb

String of the desired OrgDb package name.

gene.id.column

String of the TxDb column name that refers to the given TxDb gene IDs. Default value is gene.id.column = "ENTREZID".

display.column

String of the OrgDb column name that refers to the type of gene symbol to be displayed in plots. Default value is display.column = "SYMBOL".

BSgenome

String of the desired BSgenome package name.

Value

Returns a assembly object containing all input parameters.
