Genome intervals are defined regions within a genome that specify a start and end position on a particular chromosome. These intervals can represent various genomic elements, such as genes, exons, regulatory regions, or any loci of interest. Genome intervals are often used in bioinformatics to analyze or extract specific segments from genome datasets, enabling targeted analysis and comparisons. Tools like BED files are commonly used to manage and manipulate these intervals in a standardized format. Genome intervals are essential for annotating functional regions, detecting overlaps with variant data, and visualizing genomic relationships.
