doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.UCSC.utils
abstract: A set of low-level utilities to retrieve data from the UCSC Genome Browser.
  Most functions in the package access the data via the UCSC REST API but some of
  them query the UCSC MySQL server directly. Note that the primary purpose of the
  package is to support higher-level functionalities implemented in downstream packages
  like GenomeInfoDb or txdbmaker.
