Unknown track: refSeqComposite #103

Open prc992 opened 7 months ago

prc992 commented 7 months ago

Hi,

I'm using the command in R

ucscGenes <- UcscTrack(genome="hg19", chromosome = "chr12", table="ncbiRefSeq", track = 'NCBI RefSeq', trackType="GeneRegionTrack", rstarts = "exonStarts", rends = "exonEnds", gene = "name", symbol = 'name', transcript = "name", strand = "strand", name = "RefSeq", stacking = 'pack', showID = T, geneSymbol = T, transcriptAnnotation="symbol")

And I keep getting this error : Error in normArgTrack(track, trackids) : Unknown track: refSeqComposite

I checked the table and the track, both of them exist and are available at https://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables

Here is my sessionInfo()

I talked with UC Santa Cruz Genomics Institute and they said that the rtracklayer package is maintained by you. They said that the problem appears to be an issue with the request rtracklayer is sending to the UCSC Genome Browser.

Best, Paulo Cordeiro

The only context that I can add is that ncbiRefSeq is a table, and refSeqComposite is its parent container track, but the container does not have a table or data, it's just an empty shell for the UI. Why rtracklayer thinks that refSeqComposite is relevant here is a mystery to me, but I'm not an rtracklayer expert.

I tested it and could not replicate it. Can you make sure all packages are updated to the latest Bioconductor 3.18 (release)? By running following code and test it again whether it is fixed or not:

BiocManager::install(version = "3.18")
library(Gviz)
ucscGenes <- UcscTrack(genome="hg19", chromosome = "chr12", table="ncbiRefSeq",
track = 'NCBI RefSeq', trackType="GeneRegionTrack",
rstarts = "exonStarts", rends = "exonEnds", gene = "name",
symbol = 'name', transcript = "name", strand = "strand",
name = "RefSeq", stacking = 'pack', showID = T,
geneSymbol = T, transcriptAnnotation="symbol")

# Warning message:
# In .local(x, ...) :
#  'track' parameter is deprecated now you go by the 'table' instead
#                Use ucscTables(genome, track) to retrieve the list of tables for a track

ucscGenes
# GeneRegionTrack 'RefSeq'
# | genome: hg19
# | active chromosome: chr12
# | annotation features: 48884
