write_homer: Export motifs in HOMER format.

View source: R/write_homer.R

write_homerR Documentation

Export motifs in HOMER format.

Description

Convert DNA motifs to HOMER format and write to file. See http://homer.ucsd.edu/homer/motif/.

Usage

write_homer(motifs, file, logodds_threshold = NULL, overwrite = FALSE,
  append = FALSE, threshold = 0.8, threshold.type = c("logodds",
  "logodds.abs", "pvalue"))

Arguments

motifs

See convert_motifs() for acceptable formats.

file

character(1) File name.

logodds_threshold

Deprecated. If set, read_homer() will behave like pre-version 1.12.0 of the universalmotif package for backwards compatibility (though a warning will be printed).

overwrite

logical(1) Overwrite existing file.

append

logical(1) Add to an existing file.

threshold

numeric(1) Stringency required for HOMER to match a motif. See scan_sequences() for how to use this argument. Can be a single value to be recycled for all motifs, or a vector of equal length to the number of motifs.

threshold.type

character(1) How the threshold value should be used to obtain the final threshold value in the written motif. See scan_sequences() for how to use this.

Value

NULL, invisibly.
