TCGAVisualize_volcano: Creates a volcano plot for DNA methylation or expression

In TCGAbiolinks: TCGAbiolinks: An R/Bioconductor package for integrative analysis with GDC data

Description

Creates a volcano plot from the expression and methylation analysis.

Usage

TCGAVisualize_volcano(
  x,
  y,
  filename = "volcano.pdf",
  ylab = expression(paste(-Log[10], " (FDR corrected -P values)")),
  xlab = NULL,
  title = "Volcano plot",
  legend = NULL,
  label = NULL,
  xlim = NULL,
  ylim = NULL,
  color = c("black", "red", "green"),
  names = NULL,
  names.fill = TRUE,
  show.names = "significant",
  x.cut = 0,
  y.cut = 0.01,
  height = 5,
  width = 10,
  highlight = NULL,
  highlight.color = "orange",
  names.size = 4,
  dpi = 300
)

Arguments

x	x-axis data
y	y-axis data
filename	Filename. Default: volcano.pdf, volcano.svg, volcano.png
ylab	y axis text
xlab	x axis text
title	main title. If not specified it will be "Volcano plot (group1 vs group2)
legend	Legend title
label	vector of labels to be used in the figure. Example: c("Not Significant","Hypermethylated in group1", "Hypomethylated in group1"))#'
xlim	x limits to cut image
ylim	y limits to cut image
color	vector of colors to be used in graph
names	Names to be plotted if significant. Should be the same size of x and y
names.fill	Names should be filled in a color box? Default: TRUE
show.names	What names will be showed? Possibilities: "both", "significant", "highlighted"
x.cut	x-axis threshold. Default: 0.0 If you give only one number (e.g. 0.2) the cut-offs will be -0.2 and 0.2. Or you can give different cut-offs as a vector (e.g. c(-0.3,0.4))
y.cut	p-values threshold.
height	Figure height
width	Figure width
highlight	List of genes/probes to be highlighted. It should be in the names argument.
highlight.color	Color of the points highlighted
names.size	Size of the names text
dpi	Figure dpi

Details

Value

Saves the volcano plot in the current folder
