mostVariable: Select most variable probeset

In PavlidisLab/markerGeneProfile: Cell type marker gene profiles in whole tissue samples

Description

This function selects the most variable probeset each gene in an expression data. It also filters expression data of low expressed genes

Usage

mostVariable(x, genes = "Gene.Symbol", threshold = 6,
  threshFun = max)

Arguments

x	Expression dataset to filter. A data frame. Gene names must be present as a column before the expression data
genes	Character. Name of the column that lists gene symbols
threshold	If filtering should be done the threshold of expression
threshFun	If filtering should be done, function to apply to the gene row to compare with the threshold. By default genes are removed if maximum expression is below 6
