assaySetTargets: Return targets of assays in a 'bioassaySet' object

In bioassayR: Cross-target analysis of small molecule bioactivity

Description

This takes a bioassaySet of multiple assays and returns a vector of the targets of each, with the assay identifiers themselves (aids) as names. If a single assay contains multiple targets, these will all be listed.

Usage

assaySetTargets(assays)

Arguments

assays

A bioassaySet object with data from multiple assays, some of which may share a common target.

Value

A character vector of the targets of each, with the assay identifiers themselves (aids) as names

Examples

## connect to a test database
extdata_dir <- system.file("extdata", package="bioassayR")
sampleDatabasePath <- file.path(extdata_dir, "sampleDatabase.sqlite")
sampleDB <- connectBioassayDB(sampleDatabasePath)

## retrieve three assays
assays <- getAssays(sampleDB, c("673509","103","105"))
assays

## get the targets for these assays
myTargets <- assaySetTargets(assays)
myTargets

## disconnect from sample database
disconnectBioassayDB(sampleDB)
