probesetID2unitID-methods: Conversion between Probeset IDs and UnitIDs

Description

Convert probeset IDs and transcript IDs to internal UNIT_IDs and vice verse.

Usage

probesetID2unitID(object, probesetID = NULL, as.list = TRUE)

transcriptID2unitID(object, transcriptID = NULL, as.list = TRUE)

unitID2probesetID(object, unitID = NULL, as.list = TRUE)

unitID2transcriptID(object, unitID = NULL, as.list = TRUE)

Arguments

object

Object of class "SchemeTreeSet" or "DataTreeSet".

probesetID

optional vector of probeset IDs.

transcriptID

optional vector of transcript IDs.

unitID

optional vector of UNIT_IDs.

as.list

if TRUE a list will be returned (default is data.frame).

Value

A list or character vector.

Details

Functions probesetID2unitID and transcriptID2unitID return the UNIT_ID(s) for all or selected probeset IDs or transcript IDs, respectively.

Conversely, functions unitID2probesetID and unitID2transcriptID return the probeset IDs or transcript IDs, respectively, for all or selected UNIT_IDs. . For expression arrays the functions for probeset IDs and transcript IDs return identical IDs. . For exon arrays the functions for probeset IDs and transcript IDs return the probeset_id(s) or transcript_cluster_id(s), respectivley.

By default a list is returned, however for as.list=FALSE a character vector of IDs is returned.
