Deconvolution of DNA methylation of bulk tumor samples

Description

To capture the accurate DNA methylation signal of tumor samples, this function utilizes a deconvolution-based algorithm to infer the samples deconvoluted DNA methylation profile with proportions of different cell types in the samples bulk tumor tissue. Deconvolution algorithm requires a reference DNA methylation profile of different cell types.Hence, we compiled a list of reference methylation profiles with eight different cell types, namely, B cell, natural killer, CD4T, CD8T, monocytes, generated from adult men with replicates.

Usage

RunDeconvMethylFun(Methylation.Sample, Reference.Methylation.Probes)

Arguments

Methylation.Sample	A R dataframe for the probe-centric DNA methylation values of the tumor samples.
Reference.Methylation.Probes	A vector of the marker loci (probes) based on comparisons of each class of reference against all other samples using t-test.
