In miRNAtap: miRNAtap: microRNA Targets - Aggregated Predictions

Description

It is a package with tools to facilitate implementation of workflows requiring miRNA prediction through access to multiple prediction results (DIANA, Targetscan, PicTar, Miranda, and miRDB) and their aggregation. Three aggregation methods are available: minimum, maximum and geometric mean, additional parameters provide further tuning of the results. Predictions are available for Homo sapiens, Mus musculus and Rattus norvegicus (the last one through homology translation).

Examples

#direct targets in mouse aggregated from all sources:
targets_mouse <- getPredictedTargets('let-7a',species='mmu', method='geom') 
#homology-translated targets in rat aggregated from all sources
targets_rat <- getPredictedTargets('let-7a',species='rno', method='geom')
