Hi Vincent, I have further investigated the error I have in the vignette of chimera devel package . It is related to the libraries used to access to org.Hs.eg.db in the devel branch.
In the presence of the following libraries (stable branch): [1] org.Hs.eg.db_2.14.0 RSQLite_0.11.4 DBI_0.3.0 [4] AnnotationDbi_1.26.0 GenomeInfoDb_1.0.2 Biobase_2.24.0 [7] BiocGenerics_0.10.0 BiocInstaller_1.14.2 If I extract start and end position for the chromosome location from org.Hs.eg: >chr.tmps <- as.list(org.Hs.egCHRLOC) >chr.tmpe <- as.list(org.Hs.egCHRLOCEND) > as.numeric(chr.tmps[1:3]) [1] -58858172 18248755 -43248163 > as.numeric(chr.tmpe[1:3]) [1] -58864865 18258723 -43280376 I get different numbers for star and end of a gene. In case I used the libraries derived from devel branch [1] org.Hs.eg.db_2.14.0 RSQLite_0.11.4 DBI_0.3.0 [4] AnnotationDbi_1.27.13 GenomeInfoDb_1.1.19 IRanges_1.99.28 [7] S4Vectors_0.2.4 Biobase_2.25.0 BiocGenerics_0.11.5 > chr.tmps <- as.list(org.Hs.egCHRLOC) org.Hs.egCHRLOC is deprecated as the data is better accessed from another location. Please use an appropriate TxDb object or package for this kind of data. > chr.tmpe <- as.list(org.Hs.egCHRLOCEND) org.Hs.egCHRLOC is deprecated as the data is better accessed from another location. Please use an appropriate TxDb object or package for this kind of data. > as.numeric(chr.tmps[1:3]) [1] -58858172 18248755 -43248163 > as.numeric(chr.tmpe[1:3]) [1] -58858172 18248755 -43248163 The values associated to start and end of the gene are the same. This is actually the reason why I get errors in the vignette of chimera package.
