correlationFinder: Find correlations in yeast expression data

In dtenenba/yeastCorrelationFinder: Find common transcription factors in yeast expression data

Description

Find genes which have a correlation between their expression profiles is equal to 0.84.

Usage

  correlationFinder(dataFile = system.file("extdata", "sub_combined_complete_dataset_526G_198E.txt", package = "yeastCorrelationFinder"))

Arguments

dataFile

A tab-delimited yeast expression data file.

Details

Allocco (2004) stated, "In S. cerevisiae, two genes have a 50% chance of having a common transcription factor binder if the correlation between their expression profiles is equal to 0.84." This function finds such correlations.

Value

A named list where the names are a gene name, and the values are a list of genes which are correlated.

Examples

correlationFinder()
