newLowMACA: Construct a LowMACA object

Description

Constructor for the class LowMACA. It initializes a LowMACA object with default parameters

Usage

newLowMACA(genes = NULL, pfam = NULL)

Arguments

genes

a character vector of gene symbols in HGNC format or a integer vector of Entrez IDs. If pfam is defined, it can be set to NULL

pfam

a character vector of pfam IDs. If genes is defined, it can be set to NULL

Value

An object of class "LowMACA". See LowMACA-class

Details

When a LowMACA object is initialized, the arguments slot is filled with the input data and default parameters and path to clustalomega aligner. See lmParams and parallelize to change them.
