bedbaser

bedbaser provides programmatic access to the BEDbase API and imports BED files into GRanges objects and BEDsets into GRangesLists for genomic interval analysis in R.

Key Features:

• BEDbase API Client: Provides access to the API at api.bedbase.org.
• BED File Import: Imports BED files into GRanges objects.
• BEDset Import: Imports BEDsets into GRangesLists.

Scientific Applications:

• Genomic Interval Analysis: Enables R-based analysis of genomic regions stored in BEDbase by converting BED format data into Bioconductor GRanges data structures.

Methodology:

Accesses the BEDbase API at api.bedbase.org; converts BED files to GRanges objects and BEDsets to GRangesLists.
