[BioC] retrieving upstream/intronic sequences using biomaRt

Any of you guys know a package that will predict regulatory sites in upstream regions?

Regards,
Henrik

Hi Shamit,

Yes, with biomaRt you can get the upstream sequences but currently not the intronic sequences.
 Try:

library(biomaRt)
ensmart = useMart("ensembl",dataset="hsapiens_gene_ensembl")
getSequence( id="ENSG00000139618", type="ensembl",mart = ensmart, seqType = "5utr")

Cheers,
Steffen
