Hi. I am an investigator at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. I've been using the CRISPRseek package written by my colleague Julie Zhu and I'd like to perform searches on the zebrafish genome, but am unable to find a TxDb file for this widely studied organism. Is there a mechanism to request that a TxDb file be prepared for Drerio? Thank you, Mike Brodsky

Hi Mike, You don't need to request it. Instead you can make your own. See the help for makeTranscriptDbFromUCSC, in the GenomicFeatures package.

See the > help for makeTranscriptDbFromUCSC, in the GenomicFeatures package. Yes. It's as easy as library(GenomicFeatures) txdb <- makeTranscriptDbFromUCSC("danRer7", "ensGene") or txdb <- makeTranscriptDbFromUCSC("danRer7", "refGene") depending on whether you want Ensembl or Entrez genes. For both gene models, you'll get a warning that the cds cumulative length is not a multiple of 3 for a lot of transcripts. You might safely ignore if what you do downstream with 'txdb' is not doing anything with the CDS genomic coordinates stored in this TranscriptDb object.
