makeGene {GenomeGraphs} | R Documentation |
Creates an object of class Gene. This represents a gene structure as annotated in Ensembl.
makeGene(id, type, biomart, dp = NULL)
id |
An identifier used to specify of which gene the intron-exon structure should be retrieved |
type |
The type of identifiers used, examples are ensembl_gene_id, hgnc_symbol,entrezgene. See listAttributes function of the biomaRt package for more info |
biomart |
