View source: R/geneDel.R

Description

The function geneDel returns the fluxes which are effected by a particular combination of genes.

Usage

1
  geneDel(model, genes, checkId = FALSE)

Arguments

model

An object of class modelorg.

genes

A vector of character strings of gene id's used in model, or an integer vector with indices to gene id's in allGenes(model).

checkId

Boolean. If set to TRUE, argument genes will be checked wether it fits to model (e.g. are all genes existing). If set to FALSE, genes must contain indices of gene id's in model, e.g. in calls from optimizer.

Details

The function geneDel checks for a set of gene id's in gene on which fluxes a deletion of this set of genes has an effect.

Value

An numeric vector of pointers to reaction id's in model or NULL, if no fluxes are effected by the gene deletion.
