Examples

# Get all Bioconductor annotation databases that are compatible with Ularcirc
library('BSgenome')
library('httpuv')
library('AnnotationHub')
# Prepare a dataframe of all compatible annotation databases
## Not run:  compatible_DBs_human <- Compatible_Annotation_DBs("Hsapiens")

# Example of how to find a relevant database and load the relevant databases:
# This example find hg38 databases
   idx <- grep(pattern="hg38", x= compatible_DBs_human[,"genome"])

   if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly=TRUE))
       install.packages("BiocManager")
	  BiocManager::install(c(compatible_DBs[idx,]))
	  
## End(Not run)
