isomiRs (version 1.0.3)

isoSelect: Method to select specific miRNAs from an IsomirDataSeq object.

Description

This method allows to select a miRNA and all its isomiRs from the count matrix.

Usage

isoSelect.IsomirDataSeq(object, mirna, minc = 10)
"isoSelect"(object, mirna, minc = 10)

Arguments

object

a IsomirDataSeq object.

mirna

string referring to the miRNA to show

minc

int minimum number of isomiR reads needed to be included in the table.

Value

DataFrame-class with count information. The row.names show the isomiR names, and each of the columns shows the counts for this isomiR in that sample. Mainly, it will return the count matrix only for isomiRs belonging to the miRNA family given by the mirna parameter. IsomiRs need to have counts bigger than minc parameter to be included in the output.

Examples

data(mirData)
# To select isomiRs from let-7a-5p miRNA
# and with 10000 reads or more.
isoSelect(mirData, mirna="hsa-let-7a-5p", minc=10000)
