maxPWMScore {ChIPanalyser} | R Documentation

## Accessor function for `maxPWMScore` slot in a `genomicProfiles` object.

### Description

Accessor function for `maxPWMScore` slot in a `genomicProfiles` object.

### Usage

    maxPWMScore(object)

### Arguments

`object` | `object` is a `genomicProfiles` object.

### Details

`maxPWMScore` is a numerical value that can be described as the highest PWM score computed at a genome wide scale. This value is computed and updated in the `genomicProfiles` object after using the `computeGenomeWideScores`.

### Value

Returns the value of assigned to the `maxPWMScore` slot in a `genomicProfiles` object.

### Examples

    # Loading data
    #Data extraction
    data(ChIPanalyserData)
    # path to Position Frequency Matrix
    PFM <- file.path(system.file("extdata",package="ChIPanalyser"),"BCDSlx.pfm")
    #As an example of genome, this example will run on the Drosophila genome

        if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly=TRUE))
            install.packages("BiocManager")

    }
    library(BSgenome.Dmelanogaster.UCSC.dm3)
    DNASequenceSet <- getSeq(BSgenome.Dmelanogaster.UCSC.dm3)
    #Building data objects
    GPP <- genomicProfiles(PFM=PFM,PFMFormat="raw")

    # Computing Genome Wide
    GenomeWide <- computeGenomeWideScores(DNASequenceSet = DNASequenceSet,
        genomicProfiles = GPP)
    maxPWMScore(GenomeWide)
    ## If used before computeGenomeWidePWMScore, will return NULL
