GenomicFeatures
https://bioconductor.org/packages/GenomicFeaturesExtract the genomic locations of genes, transcripts, exons, introns, and CDS, for the gene models stored in a TxDb object. A TxDb object is a small database that contains the gene models of a given organism/assembly. Bioconductor provides a small collection of TxDb objects in the form of ready-to-install TxDb packages for the most commonly studied organisms. Additionally, the user can easily make a TxDb object (or package) for the organism/assembly of their choice by using the tools from the txdbmaker package.

A set of tools for making TxDb objects from genomic annotations from various sources (e.g. UCSC, Ensembl, and GFF files). These tools allow the user to download the genomic locations of transcripts, exons, and CDS, for a given assembly, and to import them in a TxDb object. TxDb objects are implemented in the GenomicFeatures package, together with flexible methods for extracting the desired features in convenient formats.
The ability to efficiently represent and manipulate genomic annotations and alignments is playing a central role when it comes to analyzing high-throughput sequencing data (a.k.a. NGS data). The GenomicRanges package defines general purpose containers for storing and manipulating genomic intervals and variables defined along a genome. More specialized containers for representing and manipulating short alignments against a reference genome, or a matrix-like summarization of an experiment, are defined in the GenomicAlignments and SummarizedExperiment packages, respectively. Both packages build on top of the GenomicRanges infrastructure.
The SummarizedExperiment container contains one or more assays, each represented by a matrix-like object of numeric or other mode. The rows typically represent genomic ranges of interest and the columns represent samples.
Provide infrastructure to store and access genomewide position-specific scores within R and Bioconductor.
VariantExperiment is a Bioconductor package for saving data in VCF/GDS format into RangedSummarizedExperiment object. The high-throughput genetic/genomic data are saved in GDSArray objects. The annotation data for features/samples are saved in DelayedDataFrame format with mono-dimensional GDSArray in each column. The on-disk representation of both assay data and annotation data achieves on-disk reading and processing and saves memory space significantly. The interface of RangedSummarizedExperiment data format enables easy and common manipulations for high-throughput genetic/genomic data with common SummarizedExperiment metaphor in R and Bioconductor.
A set of tools to forge BSgenome data packages. Supersedes the old seed-based tools from the BSgenome software package. This package allows the user to create a BSgenome data package in one function call, simplifying the old seed-based process.
