  gprofiler(query, organism = "hsapiens",
    ordered_query = F, significant = T, exclude_iea = F,
    region_query = F, max_p_value = 1, max_set_size = 0,
    correction_method = "analytical",
    hier_filtering = "none", domain_size = "annotated",
    custom_bg = "", numeric_ns = "")

Arguments

organism

gene list origin.

query

vector of gene IDs or a list of such vectors.

ordered_query

when output gene lists are ranked one can use this option to get GSEA style p-values.

significant

whether all or only statistically significant results should be returned.

exclude_iea

exclude electronic annotations (IEA).

region_query

interpret query as chromosomal ranges.

max_p_value

custom p-value threshold, results with a larger p-value are excluded.

max_set_size

maximum size of functional category, larger categories are excluded.

correction_method

the algorithm used for determining the significance threshold, one of "gSCS", "fdr", "bonferroni".

hier_filtering

hierarchical filtering strength, one of "none", "moderate", "strong".

domain_size

statistical domain size, one of "annotated", "known".

custom_bg

vector of gene names to use as a statistical background.

numeric_ns

namespace to use for fully numeric IDs.

Value

Data frame with the enrichment analysis results. If the input consisted of several lists the corresponding list is indicated with a variable 'query number'.
