regions <- c('chr1-1-10', 'chr2-12-3121') StringToGRanges(regions = regions)
#> GRanges object with 2 ranges and 0 metadata columns: #> seqnames ranges strand #> <Rle> <IRanges> <Rle> #> [1] chr1 1-10 * #> [2] chr2 12-3121 * #> ------- #> seqinfo: 2 sequences from an unspecified genome; no seqlengths
