Description

This method mimics the quick_search functionality of Colombos. It takes a string containg the nickname for the selected organism and a vector of string representing the genes of interest for the specified organism and returns a list containing the locustags (gene_names), contrasts and M-values for the current selection.

Usage

1
quick_search(organism = "ecoli", genes, geneNames = FALSE)

Arguments

organism

A character containing the organism id: use listOrganisms to display the available organisms.

genes

A vector of strings representing the genes of interest.

geneNames

boolean if == FALSE (default) returns the locustag otherwise the gene_name for the selected genes.
