testEnrichment(Goi, gsets, background, minknown = 2, mindiffexp = 2,
  maxknown = 500)

Arguments

Goi

character vector containing the genes tested for enrichment

gsets

List of character vectors, each containing a set of genes (gene identifiers)

background

character vector containing background gene identifiers

minknown

Minimal number of genes within a gene set for it to be considered for enrichment

mindiffexp

Minimal number of genes differentially expressed within a gene set for it to be considered for enrichment

maxknown

Maximal number of genes within a gene set for it to be considered for enrichment

Value

Dataframe containing for every gene set which passed the filtering:
