In diannamcallister/MethylExpress: Visual investigation of physical characteristics of methylation of DNA

Description

A helper function that returns n genes with the largest difference in expression between two RNAseq datasets

Usage

findDifferenceOfExpression(RNAseq1, RNAseq2, n)

Arguments

RNAseq1	A dataframe of names of genes and their count values as expression quantities from a RNAseq experiment
RNAseq2	A dataframe of names of genes and their count values as expression quantities from a RNAseq experiment
n	The amount of genes with the largest difference in gene expression to be displayed in the bar graph.

Details

This function is an internal function and therefore cannot be used directly when installing this package - it is instead a helper function for differencesInGeneExpression

Value

A list with gene name and expression of the n genes with largest difference in gene expression between the two RNAseq datasets.

• GeneNames - The gene names with the highest difference in expression

• Expressions - The RNAseq expression from each RNAseq dataset for each gene in GeneNames
