lung: Lung cancer data

Description Usage Format

Description

The data are from a study of the lung cancer. Six patients provided tissue samples and normal samples besides the lung tissues. The read counts were summarized by RefSeq transcript, and only those transcripts with at least 50 aligned reads for at least one tissue in each condition were provided in the table. RefSeq identifiers were mapped to the latest official gene symbols by following the user guide of the Bioconductor package ‘edgeR’ using the Bioconductor annotation package ‘org.Hs.eg.db’ (version 2.7.1). Those RefSeq identifiers not in the database were discarded, and each gene was represented by the RefSeq transcript with the greatest number of exons and the other transcripts were removed. Altogether 11,597 transcripts (genes) were kept.
