In gtexr: Query the GTEx Portal API

Get Significant Single Tissue eQTLs By Location

Description

Find significant single tissue eQTLs using Chromosomal Locations.

• This service returns precomputed significant single tissue eQTLs.

• Results may be filtered by tissue, and/or dataset.

By default, the service queries the latest GTEx release. Since this endpoint is used to support a third party program on the portal, the return structure is different from other endpoints and is not paginated.

Usage

get_significant_single_tissue_eqtls_by_location(
  tissueSiteDetailId,
  start,
  end,
  chromosome,
  datasetId = "gtex_v8",
  .return_raw = FALSE
)

Arguments

tissueSiteDetailId	String. The ID of the tissue of interest. Can be a GTEx specific ID (e.g. "Whole_Blood"; use get_tissue_site_detail() to see valid values) or an Ontology ID.
start	Integer.
end	Integer.
chromosome	String. One of "chr1", "chr2", "chr3", "chr4", "chr5", "chr6", "chr7", "chr8", "chr9", "chr10", "chr11", "chr12", "chr13", "chr14", "chr15", "chr16", "chr17", "chr18", "chr19", "chr20", "chr21", "chr22", "chrM", "chrX", "chrY".
datasetId	String. Unique identifier of a dataset. Usually includes a data source and data release. Options: "gtex_v8", "gtex_snrnaseq_pilot".
.return_raw	Logical. If TRUE, return the raw API JSON response. Default = FALSE

Value

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