The annotate package provides a class that can be used to model
chromosomal information about a species, using one of the metadata
packages provided by Bioconductor. This class contains information about
the organism and its chromosomes and provides a standardized interface
to the information in the metadata packages for other software to
quickly extract necessary chromosomal information. An example of using
chromLocation objects in other software can be found with the
alongChrom
function of the geneplotter package in Bioconductor.
The chromLocation class is used to provide a structure for chromosomal data of
a particular organism. In this section, we will discuss the various slots of the
class and the methods for interacting with them. Before this though, we will
create an object of class chromLocation for demonstration purposes later. The
helper function buildChromLocation
is used, and it takes as an argument the
name of a Bioconductor metadata package, which is itself used to extract the
data. For this vignette, we will be using the hgu95av2.db
package.

Once we have an object of the chromLocation class, we can now access its various slots to get the information contained within it. There are six slots in this class:
organism: This lists the organism that this object is describing.
dataSource: Where this data was acquired from.
chromLocs: A list with an element for every unique chromosome
name, where each element contains a named vector where
the names are probe IDs and the values describe the
location of that probe on the chromosome. Negative
values indicate that the location is on the antisense
strand.
probesToChrom: A hash table which will translate a probe ID to the
chromosome it belongs to.
chromInfo: A numerical vector representing each chromosome, where
the names are the names of the chromosomes and the
values are the lengths of those chromosomes.
geneSymbols: An environment that maps a probe ID to the appropriate
gene symbol.
There is a basic ‘get’ type method for each of these slots, all with the same
name as the respective slot. In the following example, we will demonstrate these
basic methods. For the probesToChrom
and geneSymbols
methods, the return
value is an environment which maps a probe ID to other values, we will be using
the probe ID ‘32972_at’, which was selected at random for these examples. We are
showing only part of the chromLocs
method’s output as it is quite long in its
entirety.

Another method which can be used to access information about the particular
chromLocation object is the nChrom
method, which will list how many
chromosomes this organism has:
nChrom(z)
## [1] 711
The chromLocation class has a simple design, but can be powerful if one wants to store the chromosomal data contained in a Bioconductor package into a single object. These objects can be created once and then passed around to multiple functions, which can cut down on computation time to access the desired information from the package. These objects allow access to basic but also important information, and provide a standard interface for writers of other software to access this information.
