GeneSet-class: Class '"GeneSet"'
In wangk4/chipenrich.data: Companion package to chipenrich

Description Objects from the Class Slots Note Author(s) Examples

Class for storing sets of genes and their corresponding metadata.

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("GeneSet").

These objects are used internally by the chipenrich package and users will not likely need to create these.

set.gene:: Object of class "environment". Maps from geneset IDs to lists of Entrez gene IDs.
type:: Object of class "character". The formal name for this collection of genesets.
set.name:: Object of class "environment". Maps from geneset IDs to their descriptions/names.
all.genes:: Object of class "character". A set of all genes present across every geneset.
organism:: Object of class "character". Organism code for gene IDs.
dburl:: Object of class "character". Web URL for this collection of genesets.

Not typically accessed by the user - this is used internally by the chipenrich package.
