Bioconductor version: Release (2.7)
The ability to efficiently store genomic annotations and alignments is playing a central role when it comes to analyze high-throughput sequencing data (a.k.a. NGS data). The package defines general purpose containers for storing genomic intervals as well as more specialized containers for storing alignments against a reference genome.
