exportInteractTrack: Export predicted gene-pair interaction

Description

Export the predicted gene-pair interactions calculated by upstream function linkGenesAndPeaks into an Interact Track file which is compatible with UCSC Genome Browser.

Usage

exportInteractTrack(
  corrMat,
  pathToCoords,
  useGenes = NULL,
  outputPath = getwd()
)

Value

No return value. A file located at outputPath will be created.

Arguments

corrMat

A sparse matrix of correlation with peak names as rows and gene names as columns.

pathToCoords

Path to the gene coordinates file.

useGenes

Character vector of gene names to be exported. Default NULL uses all genes available in corrMat.

outputPath

Path of filename where the output file will be stored. If a folder, a file named "Interact_Track.bed" will be created. Default current working directory.

Examples

# \donttest{
bmmc <- normalize(bmmc)
bmmc <- selectGenes(bmmc)
bmmc <- scaleNotCenter(bmmc)
if (requireNamespace("RcppPlanc", quietly = TRUE) &&
    requireNamespace("GenomicRanges", quietly = TRUE) &&
    requireNamespace("IRanges", quietly = TRUE) &&
    requireNamespace("psych", quietly = TRUE)) {
    bmmc <- runINMF(bmmc)
    bmmc <- quantileNorm(bmmc)
    bmmc <- normalizePeak(bmmc)
    bmmc <- imputeKNN(bmmc, reference = "atac", queries = "rna")
    corr <- linkGenesAndPeaks(
        bmmc, useDataset = "rna",
        pathToCoords = system.file("extdata/hg19_genes.bed", package = "rliger")
    )
    resultPath <- tempfile()
    exportInteractTrack(
        corrMat = corr,
        pathToCoords = system.file("extdata/hg19_genes.bed", package = "rliger"),
        outputPath = resultPath
    )
