featureCounts2DGEList {edgeR} | R Documentation

## Convert featureCounts object to a DGEList

### Description

Converts the list output by `Rsubread::featureCounts` to a DGEList object.

### Usage

    featureCounts2DGEList(x)

### Arguments

`x` | a list produced by `Rsubread::featureCounts.`

### Details

Rsubread's `featureCounts` function counts reads by features (typically exons or genomic intervals) or meta-features (typically genes). It may also count reads crossing exon-exon junctions or reads internal to exons. This function assembles all the read counts output by `featureCounts` into an DGEList, ensuring unique row.names where appropriate. The proportion of reads assigned to features is also stored.

### Value

A `DGEList` data object.
