explorase (version 1.36.0)

bioc_integration: ExpressionSet Integration

Description

Functions loading and retrieving Bioconductor ExpressionSet objects to and from exploRase.

Usage

exp_loadExpressionSet(exprset, type = exp_entityType())
exp_phenoData(type = exp_entityType())
exp_featureData(type = exp_entityType())
exp_expressionSet(type = exp_entityType())

Arguments

exprset

The ExpressionSet to load.

type

The type of the biological entity (e.g. gene).

Value

For exp_expressionSet, an ExpressionSet. For exp_phenoData, an AnnotatedDataFrame representing the phenotype data (i.e. experimental design, see exp_designFrame). For exp_featureData, an AnnotatedDataFrame representing the feature annotations (i.e. the entity info, see exp_entityFrame).

Details

To load a ExpressionSet instance into exploRase, call exp_loadExpressionSet. The function exp_expressionSet retrieves the ExpressionSet representing the data stored in exploRase for the given entity type. exp_phenoData and exp_featureData retrieve only the phenoData and featureData components, respectively.
