Get the nearest gene for one or more snps

Source: R/get_genes_and_annotation.R

annotate_with_nearest_gene() Annotate the variant/snp with their nearest gene Required parameters is a dataframe of SNPs (with the columns CHROM and POS)

annotate_with_nearest_gene(variants, protein_coding_only = F)

Arguments

variants

a dataframe of variant positions (CHROM and POS)
protein_coding_only

If set to TRUE only annotate with protein coding genes (the default value is FALSE)

Value

the input dataframe with Gene_Symbol as an additional column

Examples

if (FALSE) {
annotate_with_nearest_gene(variants)
}
