In maehrlab/thymusatlastools: Tools for analysis of single-cell transcriptomic data

Description

Find genes with expression patterns similar to the genes you've specified.

Usage

get_similar_genes(dge, markers, n, anticorr = F)

Arguments

'dge'	: a Seurat object with field '@scale.data' filled in.
'markers':	a character vector; giving gene names.
'n':	integer; number of results to return.
'anticorr'	: allow negatively correlated genes; defaults to 'FALSE'.
'aggregator'	: If multiple genes, how to combine their correlations. Default is "sum". For an "and"-like filter, use "min". Given a Seurat object and a list of gene names, this function returns genes that are strongly correlated with those markers.

Value

character vector.
