Value

A data.table object.

Arguments

gene

(character) gene symbol or gencode id (versioned or unversioned are both supported).

geneType

(character) options: "auto","geneSymbol" or "gencodeId". Default: "auto".

variantName

(character) name of variant, dbsnp ID and variant id is supported, eg. "rs138420351" and "chr17_7796745_C_T_b38".

variantType

(character) options: "auto", "snpId" or "variantId". Default: "auto".

tissueLabel

(character) all supported tissues can be listed using "ebi_study_tissues"

study

(character) name of studies can be listed using "ebi_study_tissues". If the study is null, use all studies (Default).

recordPerChunk

(integer) number of records fetched per request (default: 1000).

withB37VariantId

a logical value indicating whether to return the genome location(GTEx v7) of variants. Default: FALSE.

data_source

"eQTL_catalogue"(default) or "liLab"
