GLstring_genes_expanded: GLstring_genes_expanded

Description

This function processes a specified column in a data frame that contains GL strings. It separates the GL strings, identifies the HLA loci, and transforms the data into a wider format with loci as column names. It also creates multiple rows to separate each locus in the allele.

Usage

GLstring_genes_expanded(data, gl_string)

Value

A data frame with expanded columns, where each row has a single allele for a specific locus.

Arguments

data

A data frame containing GL strings for HLA data.

gl_string

The name of the column in the data frame that contains GL strings.

Examples

file <- HLA_typing_1[, -1]
GL_string <- data.frame("GL_string" = HLA_columns_to_GLstring(
  file,
  HLA_typing_columns = everything()
))
GL_string <- GL_string[1, , drop = FALSE] # When considering first patient
result <- GLstring_genes_expanded(GL_string, "GL_string")
print(result)
