locateVariants failing on intronic variants

Reproduza o exemplo relatado com locateVariants(), TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene e os dados VCF de chr22, comparando o caminho padrão com o cache filtrado manualmente. Comece rastreando locateVariants() e as anotações de transcritos com cache e sem cache; considera-se concluído quando as dez variantes intrônicas recebem anotações sem exigir um cache filtrado manualmente.

hi there,

I'm experiencing a bug that's the same as an issue that was closed back in November, but it still seems to be a problem.

I am using the release version (1.50.0) - apologies if this is fixed in devel. I cannot right now wrap my head around running the devel version - I used to know how to switch back and forth between versions more easily....

Anyway:

locateVariants() fails to annotate some intronic variants, unless I create and use a cached version of the txdb where I've removed empty elements. It's very similar to the older report, but here's the code I use to illustrate it:

I'm using example data as seen in the vignette

thanks!

Janet

library(TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene)
library(VariantAnnotation)

## read in test vcf file and sort out seqlevels
fl <- system.file("extdata", "chr22.vcf.gz", package="VariantAnnotation")
vcf <- readVcf(fl, "hg19")
seqlevels(vcf) <- "chr22"

## define txdb
txdb <- TxDb.Hsapiens.UCSC.hg19.knownGene

## get rowRanges, as in the vignette
rd <- rowRanges(vcf)

### use just the first 10 snps
test_snps <- rd[1:10]

## show that they're in an intron:
txdb_introns <- intronsByTranscript(txdb, use.names=TRUE)
findOverlaps(test_snps, txdb_introns)
