GOKEGGSims: GO- and KEGG- based Similarities Between two Genes
Description
Given two genes, this function will calculate KEGG-based similarity and three GO-based similarities between them
Usage
GOKEGGSims(gene1, gene2, organism = "yeast", drop = "IEA")
Arguments
gene1
Entrez gene id.
gene2
Another entrez gene id.
organism
One of "anopheles", "arabidopsis", "bovine", "canine", "chicken", "chimp", "ecolik12", "ecsakai", "fly", "human", "malaria", "mouse", "pig", "rat", "rhesus", "worm", "xenopus", "yeast" and "zebrafish."
drop
A set of evidence codes based on which certain annotations are dropped. Use NULL to keep all GO annotations.
