gene expression data

Load expression data for samples from Exp3p-like data files.

E3LoadExp3pGeneData(samplenames, platenames, path.template,
  column.template = "SAMPLE.EPM", column.low.template = "SAMPLE.EPM.low",
  column.high.template = "SAMPLE.EPM.high", id.in = "Region.id",
  id.out = "Gene", rescale.uncertainty = 1, verbose = TRUE)

`samplenames`	- character vector with sample codes e.g. KO_None. The sample codes must correspond to parts of the data path.
`platenames`	- character vector with additional codes for each sample, e.g. a plate id. These codes must correspond to parts of the data path.
`path.template`	- character string. This is a generic path that can contain patterns SAMPLE and PLATE. These substrings will be replaced by values from the previous two vectors.
`column.template`	- character string marking the column in the data table containing values to be interpreted as expression values. The pattern SAMPLE will be replaced by values from the samplenames vector.
`column.low.template`	- character string. Similar to column.template, but referring to columns with a low estimate for expression values
`column.high.template`	- character string. Similar to column.template, but referring to columns with a high estimate for expression values
`id.in`	- character string. Name of column in input data files containing the gene or region identifier.
`id.out`	- character string. Name of column in the output data frame containing gene identifier
`rescale.uncertainty`	- numeric. When different from one, the low/high estimates will be modified by this factor. Use this value to read more conservative expression intervals.
`verbose`	- logical. Print out progress messages.
