msigdbr: MSigDB data frame

The msigdbr R package provides Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB) gene sets:

  • in an R-friendly tidy format with one gene pair per row
  • for multiple frequently studied model organisms in addition to the original human genes
  • as gene symbols as well as NCBI Entrez and Ensembl IDs
  • without accessing external resources requiring an active internet connection
