Get Median Exon Expression

Source: R/get_median_exon_expression.R
get_median_exon_expression.Rd

Find median exon expression data.

  • Returns median exon read counts, in tissues, of a collapsed gene model.

  • Results may be filtered by dataset, gene or tissue, but at least one gene must be provided

By default, this service queries the latest GTEx release.

Usage

get_median_exon_expression(
  gencodeIds,
  datasetId = "gtex_v8",
  tissueSiteDetailIds = NULL,
  page = 0,
  itemsPerPage = 250
)

Arguments

gencodeIds

A character vector of Versioned GENCODE IDs, e.g. c("ENSG00000132693.12", "ENSG00000203782.5").

datasetId

String. Unique identifier of a dataset. Usually includes a data source and data release. Options: "gtex_v8", "gtex_snrnaseq_pilot".

tissueSiteDetailIds

Character vector of IDs for tissues of interest. Can be GTEx specific IDs (e.g. "Whole_Blood"; use get_tissue_site_detail() to see valid values) or Ontology IDs.

page

Integer (default = 0).

itemsPerPage

Integer (default = 250).

Value

A tibble.
