Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: deepTools 3.5+

Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ:

• R: packageVersion('<pkg>') then ?function_name to verify parameters
• CLI: <tool> --version then <tool> --help to confirm flags

If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying.

Modification Visualization

"Visualize m6A distribution around stop codons" → Create metagene plots and genome browser tracks showing RNA modification patterns relative to transcript landmarks (5'UTR, CDS, 3'UTR, stop codon).

• R: Guitar::GuitarPlot() for metagene distribution plots
• CLI: deeptools computeMatrix → plotHeatmap for modification heatmaps
