Seqinfo

A simple S4 class for storing basic information about a collection of genomic sequences

Bioconductor version: 3.23 · Package version: 1.2.0

The Seqinfo class stores the names, lengths, circularity flags, and genomes for a particular collection of sequences. These sequences are typically the chromosomes and/or scaffolds of a specific genome assembly of a given organism. Seqinfo objects are rarely used as standalone objects. Instead, they are used as part of higher-level objects to represent their seqinfo() component. Examples of such higher-level objects are GRanges, RangedSummarizedExperiment, VCF, GAlignments, etc... defined in other Bioconductor infrastructure packages.
