Run Enrichr

Description

Runs Enrichr on the specified genes against all libraries

If you find that this function is not flexible enough, you can run Enrichr as follows.

• Update the internal list of the libraries (if necessary) by running parseEnrichrLibNames

• Register gene list with enrichrAddList

• Run enrichment analysis with enrichrEnrich

• Check the length failure element of the response to see if there were any failures

• Filter the success element of the response by using filterEnrichrResults

Usage

runEnrichr(
  genes,
  minScore = 12,
  maxAdjP = 0.01,
  minOverlapGenes = 3,
  softFilter = F,
  maxResult = NA,
  connectionN = 10
)

Arguments

genes	A list or vector containing gene names
minScore	Combined score (log(AdjP) * z) threshold to filter the results.
maxAdjP	Adjusted p (Benjamini-Hochberg method) threshold to filter the results.
minOverlapGenes	Minimum number of genes in the overlap
softFilter	select libraries with at least one significant result but report all results
maxResult	maximum number of results to return
connectionN	Maximum number of connections to open simultaneously for the enrichment analysis.

Value

A named list with library names as names and data.frame objects as values. An entire result set is retained if there is at least one significant gene based on the supplied criteria.

Examples

## Not run: 
genes <- c("HPS1", "HPS3", "HPS5", "PSMD11", "CUL7", "SNAPC4", "GNB2")
resList <- runEnrichr(genes, minScore = 15, maxAdjP = 1e-4, minOverlapGenes = 3, connectionN = 20)
resList = lapply(names(resList), function(nm){return(cbind("Gene-set library"=nm, resList[[nm]]))}) ## add the name as a first column
resMerged = do.call("rbind", resList)

## End(Not run)

# Alternative usage
## Not run: 
addResp <- enrichrAddList(genes)
names(addResp)
# [1] "shortId"    "userListId"
# This will check all libraries specified in the internal list (extdata/enrichr_libnames.txt)
res <- enrichrEnrich(addResp$userListId)
# Check if any requests failed
if (length(res$failure) > 0) {
  cat(length(res$failure), " requests failed")
  allLibs <- getEnrichrLibNames()
  # Libraries that failed
  setdiff(allLibs, names(res$success))
}
# Filter the data sets
resFilt <- filterEnrichrResults(res$success, maxPAdj = 0.01, maxZ = -3, minCombinedScore = 12, minOverlapGenes = 3)

## End(Not run)
