Description

Get the TSS positions from a set of genomic ranges containing gene positions. Ranges can contain exons, introns, UTRs, etc, rather than the whole transcript. Only protein coding gene biotypes are included in output.

Usage

Arguments

ranges

A GRanges object containing gene annotations.

biotypes

Gene biotypes to include. If NULL, use all biotypes in the supplied gene annotation.
