.combineEnrich
Description
This is a helper function for diffEnrich
. This function takes the objects generated from pathEnrich
.
If performing a dfferential enrichment analysis, the user will have 2 objects. There
will be one for list1 and one for list2(see example for pathEnrich
).
This function then merges the two data frames using the following columns that should be present
in both objects (by = c("KEGG_PATHWAY_ID", "KEGG_PATHWAY_description", "KEGG_PATHWAY_cnt", "KEGG_DATABASE_cnt")
). This merged data frame
will be used as the input for the differential enrichment function. Any pathways that do not contain any genes from either gene list will be removed.
Usage
.combineEnrich(list1_pe, list2_pe)
Arguments
list1_pe |
object of class |
list2_pe |
object of class |
Value
combined_enrich: An object of class data.frame that is the result of merging
list1_pe
and list2_pe
, using the default joining implemented in the base
merge
function.
