Flatten Compressed Exons¶
The "flattenCompressedExons"
transform flattens "delta encoded" exons. The
transform inputs the start coordinate of the gene body and a comma-delimited
string of alternating intron and exon lengths. A new data object is created for
each exon.
This transform is mainly intended to be used with an optimized gene annotation track. Read more at Annotation Tracks notebook.
