get_median_transcript_expression: Get Median Transcript Expression

In gtexr: Query the GTEx Portal API

Get Median Transcript Expression

Description

Find median transcript expression data of all known transcripts of a gene.

• Returns median normalized expression in tissues of all known transcripts of a given gene.

• Results may be filtered by dataset or tissue.

By default, this service queries the latest GTEx release.

Usage

get_median_transcript_expression(
  gencodeIds,
  datasetId = "gtex_v8",
  tissueSiteDetailIds = NULL,
  page = 0,
  itemsPerPage = getOption("gtexr.itemsPerPage"),
  .verbose = getOption("gtexr.verbose"),
  .return_raw = FALSE
)

Arguments

gencodeIds	A character vector of Versioned GENCODE IDs, e.g. c("ENSG00000132693.12", "ENSG00000203782.5").
datasetId	String. Unique identifier of a dataset. Usually includes a data source and data release. Options: "gtex_v8", "gtex_snrnaseq_pilot".
tissueSiteDetailIds	Character vector of IDs for tissues of interest. Can be GTEx specific IDs (e.g. "Whole_Blood"; use get_tissue_site_detail() to see valid values) or Ontology IDs.
page	Integer (default = 0).
itemsPerPage	Integer (default = 250). Set globally to maximum value 100000 with options(list(gtexr.itemsPerPage = 100000)).
.verbose	Logical. If TRUE (default), print paging information. Set to FALSE globally with options(list(gtexr.verbose = FALSE)).
.return_raw	Logical. If TRUE, return the raw API JSON response. Default = FALSE

Value

A tibble. Or a list if .return_raw = TRUE.
