createEexprSetFromLimma
This function creates a new object of the type EexprSet
from a data object of the limma package. So the standard methods that are available for the EexprSet
object are also available to tihs type of data.
createEexprSetFromLimma(object)
object |
The object (of the type RGList or MAList object from limma) to be converted. |
For two color micro array data, like the data objects in limma represent, the array.pairs attribute in the EexprSet
object will contain information about what column correspondes to the red intensities and green intensities respectiveley of which array. So by calling for example the drawMA
method the right intensities will be used to create the MA plot. Weights will also be set in the EexprSet
object, as well as the printer layout if set in the limma object. The only thing that will be missing by now is the annotation (the $genes) object. This should be fixed soon...
The EexprSet-class
is deprecated! Use MadbSet
instead! This function is replaced by the newMadbSet
function.
