Description

This function colors nodes of a graph, usually this is used to color subgraphs or add a color hue correlating with the expression level or fold change to the molecules.

Usage

1
colorGraphNodes(graph1, nodes, values, colors = c("greenred", "yellowred"))

Arguments

graph1

graphNEL

nodes

vector of node names specifiying which nodes to color. must be same length as parameter foldChanges

values

vector of values indicating fold changes, gene expression values or similar. colors are mapped linearly over the range of these values

colors

string. either "greenred" or "yellowred", specifying which color gradient to use.

Value

Returns a graph with specified nodes colored according to the foldChanges
