eQTLcatalogue_search_metadata: Search eQTL Catalogue metadata

In RajLabMSSM/catalogueR: QTL data extraction and colocalization

Search eQTL Catalogue metadata

Description

Searches through multiple relevant metadata columns to find eQTL Catalogue datasets that match at least one of your substrings in a list. All searches are case-insensitive. If qtl_search=NULL, will return all available datasets.

Usage

eQTLcatalogue_search_metadata(qtl_search = NULL, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

qtl_search

This function will automatically search for any datasets that match your criterion. For example, if you search "Alasoo_2018", it will query the datasets: Alasoo_2018.macrophage_naive Alasoo_2018.macrophage_Salmonella Alasoo_2018.macrophage_IFNg+Salmonella You can be more specific about which datasets you want to include, for example by searching: "Alasoo_2018.macrophage_IFNg". You can even search by tissue or condition type (e.g. c("blood","brain")) and any QTL datasets containing those substrings (case-insensitive) in their name or metadata will be queried too.

verbose

Show more (=TRUE) or fewer (=FALSE) messages.
