geecc (version 1.0.0)

geecc-package: Gene set enrichment for two or three categories

Description

This package performs gene set enrichment analyses considering two or three categories. Categories might be regulated genes, sequence length, GC content, GO terms, KEGG pathways and so on.

Examples

##
## a completely artificial example run
## through the routines of the package
##
R <- 500
#generate R random gene-ids
ID <- sapply(1:R, function(r){paste( sample(LETTERS, 10), collapse="" ) } )
ID <- unique(ID)

#assign artificial differentially expressed genes randomly
category1 <- list( deg.smallFC=sample(ID, 100, rep=FALSE),
	deg.hughFC=sample(ID, 100, rep=FALSE) )
#assign artificial GO terms of genes randomly
category2 <- list( go1=sample(ID, 50, replace=FALSE),
	go2=sample(ID, 166, replace=FALSE),
	go3=sample(ID, 74, replace=FALSE),
	go4=sample(ID, 68, replace=FALSE) )
#assign artificial sequence length of genes randomly
LEN <- setNames(sample(seq(100, 1000, 100), length(ID), replace=TRUE), ID)
category3 <- split( ID, f=factor(LEN, levels=seq(100, 1000, 100)) )
CatList <- list(deg=category1, go=category2, len=category3)
