dloadMirdb {TimiRGeN} | R Documentation |
Downloads most recent version (6.0) of predicted targets from the mirdb database http://mirdb.org/download.html. This will take some time. miR-mRNA interactions from the species of interest will be extracted. Species of interests associated org.db package must be loaded beforehand.
dloadMirdb(MAE, species, orgDB)
MAE |
MultiAssayExperiment which will store downloaded mirDB data. It is recommended to use the MAE which was used in the mirMrnaInt function. |
species |
Species of interest e.g. "hsa" or "mmu". |
orgDB |
Organism db package specific for species of interest. |
A dataframe of predicted, species specific mRNA-miR interactions. Will be stored as an assay in the input MAE.
