Get a list of genes that are stably expressed in cancer and normal solid tissue.
getStableGenes( n_stable, type = c("carcinoma", "blood"), id = c("geneid", "ensembl") )
n_stable | numeric, number of stable genes to retrieve |
---|---|
type | character, type of stable genes requested, stable genes in "carcinoma" or stable genes in "blood" |
id | character, gene identifier required. This can be either "geneid" for symbols or "ensembl" ensembl id) |
a character vector with gene IDs sorted by their expected expression levels in the requested tissue
