In BaalChIP: BaalChIP: Bayesian analysis of allele-specific transcription factor binding in cancer genomes

Description

Method filterIntbias

Filters the data frame available within a BaalChIP object (slot alleleCounts). This filter performs simulations of reads of the same length as the original ChIP-seq reads, aligns the simulated reads to the genome, calculates the allelic ratios for each variant and finally ignores those variants for which the allelic ratio (REF/TOTAL) is different than 0.5.

Usage

filterIntbias(.Object, simul_output = NULL, tmpfile_prefix = NULL,
  simulation_script = "local", alignmentSimulArgs = NULL,
  skipScriptRun = FALSE, verbose = TRUE)

## S4 method for signature 'BaalChIP'
filterIntbias(.Object, simul_output = NULL,
  tmpfile_prefix = NULL, simulation_script = "local",
  alignmentSimulArgs = NULL, skipScriptRun = FALSE, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

.Object	An object of the BaalChIP class.
simul_output	a non-empty character vector giving the directory of where to save the FASTQ and BAM files generated by the function. If NULL, a random directory under the current working directory will be generated.
tmpfile_prefix	an optional character vector giving the initial part of the name of the FASTQ and BAM files generated by the function. If NULL, a random name will be generated.
simulation_script	the file path for simulation script containing the instructions of simulation and alignment commands. If NULL, the default simulation script distributed with BaalChIP ('extra/simulation_run.sh') will be used.
alignmentSimulArgs	a character vector with arguments to the simulation script. If NULL no arguments are passed.
skipScriptRun	a logical value indicating if simulation BAM files should not be generated. If TRUE BaalChIP will look for the BAM files in the 'simul_output/temp_prefix' (default is FALSE).
verbose	logical. If TRUE reports extra information on the process

Value

An updated BaalChIP object with the slot alleleCounts containing a list of GRanges objects that pass filters.
