DGEobj (version 1.0.1)

annotateDGEobj: Add annotations

Description

Reads an annotation file of key/value pairs or a named list and attaches them attributes to a DGEobj. If a file is used, it should be a text file containing key/value pairs separated by an equals sign. The keys parameter specifies which key we want to capture as attributes on the DGEobj. The value will then be the value of that attribute.

Usage

annotateDGEobj(dgeObj, annotations, keys = NULL)
