Hatice,
That is a great question! I would suggest you use transcript annotation file
instead of gene annotation file to annotate your peak. The transcript
annotation file should include multiple transcription start sites for genes
with multiple isoforms.
To obtain the transcript annotation using ChIPpeakAnno, you would use
function getAnnotation(mart, featureType="transcript"). Alternatively, you
could directly call annotatePeakInBatch using your own annotation file.
Thanks for the positive feedback!
Best regards,
Julie
