combine_mir_vt: Combine miRNA validated targets from differents sources...

In kassambara/miRTarget: Find miRNA targets

Description

A helper function for combining miRNA targets from differents sources. Duplicated miRNA-target interactions are automatically removed.

Usage

combine_mir_vt(...)

Arguments

...	a list of MirTarget object to combine. MirTarget object can be generated by the functions get_mirecords_*() or by get_mirtarbase_*().

Value

Returns an object of class MirTarget which is a data frame containing combined validated targets for each miRNA.
