geneLists {RankAggreg}

Ordered Gene Lists from 5 microarray studies

Description

This dataset contains five lists of genes, each of size 25, from five independent microarray studies on prostate cancer. The lists are given in Table 4 in the manuscript by DeConde et al. Lists form the rows of the dataset with columns corresponding to the ranks of genes in each individual study.

Usage

data(geneLists)

Format

A matrix of size 5 by 25 containing 5 lists of genes.
