GeneOntologyFilter-class: Create a GeneOntologyFilter object

Description Usage Arguments Value See Also Examples

Description

A GeneOntologyFilter object allows for filtering based on gene ontology (GO) terms. Its associated getCandidates method uses an organism database and a GO term (e.g. GO:#######) to filter a list of possible regulators factors to those that match the GO term.
