Hi Ilari,
org.Hs.eg.db is one of the packages included in Homo.sapiens and it's
the origin of 'MAP'. This variable maps between entrez gene ids and
cytoband names, not genomic coordinates (as you've discovered). It
includes bands and sub-bands provided by Entrez Gene downloaded from here:
Hi,
I would like to obtain the boundaries of cytogenetic bands for human (hg19) as
I need to map arbitrary genomic positions to the band containing them. I
figured these would be available via the Homo.sapiens annotation package, so I
took a look at the available keytypes. MAP looked promising:
