convert_motifs {universalmotif}R Documentation

Convert motif class.

Description

Allows for easy transfer of motif information between different classes as defined by other Bioconductor packages. This function is also used by nearly all other functions in this package, so any motifs of a compatible class can be used without needing to be converted beforehand.

Usage

convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'AsIs'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'list'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'universalmotif'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'MotifList'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'TFFMFirst'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'PFMatrix'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'PWMatrix'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'ICMatrix'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'XMatrixList'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'pwm'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'pcm'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'pfm'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'PWM'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'Motif'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

## S4 method for signature 'matrix'
convert_motifs(motifs, class = "universalmotif-universalmotif")

Examples

# Convert from universalmotif:
jaspar <- read_jaspar(system.file("extdata", "jaspar.txt",
                                  package = "universalmotif"))
if (requireNamespace("motifStack", quietly = TRUE)) {
  jaspar.motifstack.pfm <- convert_motifs(jaspar, "motifStack-pfm")
}

# Convert from another class to universalmotif:
if (requireNamespace("TFBSTools", quietly = TRUE)) {
library(TFBSTools)
data(MA0003.2)
motif <- convert_motifs(MA0003.2)

# Convert from another class to another class
if (requireNamespace("PWMEnrich", quietly = TRUE)) {
  motif <- convert_motifs(MA0003.2, "PWMEnrich-PWM")
}

# The 'convert_motifs' function is embedded in the rest of the universalmotif
# functions: non-universalmotif class motifs can be used
MA0003.2.trimmed <- trim_motifs(MA0003.2)
# Note: if the motif object going in has information that the
# 'universalmotif' class can't hold, it will be lost
