A call to expressionSet class — make_ExpressionSet • pQTLtools

This is really a direct call to the Bioconductor/Biobase class.

Usage

make_ExpressionSet(
  assayData,
  phenoData = Biobase::annotatedDataFrameFrom(assayData, byrow = FALSE),
  featureData = Biobase::annotatedDataFrameFrom(assayData, byrow = TRUE),
  experimentData = Biobase::MIAME(),
  annotation = character(),
  protocolData = Biobase::annotatedDataFrameFrom(assayData, byrow = FALSE),
  ...
)

Arguments

assayData: Expression data.
phenoData: Phenotype.
featureData: featureData.
experimentData: Information on data source.
annotation: Annotation information.
protocolData: protocol information.
...: Other options.

Value

An ExpressionSet object.

Details

The explicit call make it easier to handle proteomic data for other downstream analyses.

Note

Adapted from Bioconductor/Biobase following a number of proteomic pilot studies.
