featureCounts2DGEList: Convert featureCounts object to a DGEList

In OliverVoogd/edgeR: Empirical Analysis of Digital Gene Expression Data in R

Convert featureCounts object to a DGEList

Description

Converts the list output by Rsubread::featureCounts to a DGEList object.

Usage

featureCounts2DGEList(x)

Arguments

x	a list produced by Rsubread::featureCounts.

Details

Rsubread's featureCounts function counts reads by features (typically exons or genomic intervals) or meta-features (typically genes). It may also count reads crossing exon-exon junctions or reads internal to exons. This function assembles all the read counts output by featureCounts into an DGEList, ensuring unique row.names where appropriate. The proportion of reads assigned to features is also stored.

Value

A DGEList data object.
