BSgenomeForge

BSgenomeForge supersedes the old seed-based tools from the BSgenome software package and enables creation of BSgenome data packages in one function call.


Key Features:

  • Package Forging: Creates BSgenome data packages from genomic data sources.
  • Simplified Workflow: Replaces the multi-step seed-based process with a single function call.

Scientific Applications:

  • Genomic Data Package Creation: Builds Bioconductor-compatible BSgenome packages for reference genome distribution and analysis.

Methodology:

BSgenomeForge implements a one-function-call approach to package forging, superseding the previous seed-based tool architecture from the BSgenome software package.
