Plot method for cmicroRNA and cTF objects

Source: R/methods.plots.R
cor_plot.Rd

A dot plot of microRNA/TF correlation in a single study of TCGA. When the object cmicroRNA/cTF contains more than one TCGA studies, the argument study is a requirement.

Usage

cor_plot(ob, study, ...)

Arguments

ob

A cmicroRNA or cTF object such as this returned by calling cmicroRNA or cTF.

study

A character vector of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) study identifiers. To view the available studies in TCGA project, https://tcga-data.nci.nih.gov/docs/publications/tcga. When left to default NULL all available studies will be included.

Other options

Value

A ggplot object of a dot plot of the correlation values between genes and microRNAs or transcription factors in a TCGA study.

Examples

# locate the testset file and connect
fl <- system.file('extdata', 'cRegulome.db', package = 'cRegulome')
conn <- RSQLite::dbConnect(RSQLite::SQLite(), fl)

# enter a custom query with different arguments
dat <- get_mir(conn,
               mir = 'hsa-let-7g',
               study = 'STES',
               min_abs_cor = .3,
               max_num = 5)

# make a cmicroRNA object   
cmir <- cmicroRNA(dat)

# print object
cor_plot(cmir)
