In DMRcaller: Differentially Methylated Regions caller

Description

This function joins together data that come from biological replicates to perform analysis

Usage

joinReplicates(methylationData1, methylationData2, usecomplete = FALSE)

Arguments

methylationData1	the methylation data stored as a GRanges object with four metadata columns (see methylationDataList).
methylationData2	the methylation data stored as a GRanges object with four metadata columns (see methylationDataList).
usecomplete	Boolean, determine wheter, when the two dataset differ for number of cytosines, if the smaller dataset should be added with zero reads to match the bigger dataset.

Value

returns a GRanges object containing multiple metadata columns with the reads from each object passed as parameter

                              methylationDataList[["met1-3"]], FALSE)
