Get Single Nucleux Gex

Retrieve Single Nucleus Gene Expression Data for a given Gene.

GTEx Portal API documentation

Usage

get_single_nucleus_gex(
  gencodeIds,
  datasetId = "gtex_snrnaseq_pilot",
  tissueSiteDetailIds = NULL,
  excludeDataArray = TRUE,
  page = 0,
  itemsPerPage = 250
)

Arguments

gencodeIds

A character vector of Versioned GENCODE IDs, e.g. c("ENSG00000132693.12", "ENSG00000203782.5").

datasetId

String. Unique identifier of a dataset. Usually includes a data source and data release. Options: "gtex_v8", "gtex_snrnaseq_pilot".

tissueSiteDetailIds

Character vector of IDs for tissues of interest. Can be GTEx specific IDs (e.g. "Whole_Blood"; use get_tissue_site_detail() to see valid values) or Ontology IDs.

excludeDataArray

String. Options are TRUE or FALSE

page

Integer (default = 0).

itemsPerPage

Integer (default = 250).

Value

A tibble

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Search for one or more genes - returns a tibble with one row per tissue.
# Column "cellTypes" now contains a tibble of expression summary data, with
# one row for each cell type
get_single_nucleus_gex(gencodeIds = c("ENSG00000203782.5",
                                      "ENSG00000132693.12"))

# `excludeDataArray = FALSE` - expression values are stored under "celltypes"
# in an additional column called "data"
response <- get_single_nucleus_gex(gencodeIds = "ENSG00000132693.12",

                                   itemsPerPage = 2)

response

# "cellTypes" contains a tibble of data with one row for each
# cell type e.g. for Breast_Mammary_Tissue
response$cellTypes[[2]]

# when `excludeDataArray = FALSE`, expression values are stored in "data"
# e.g. for Breast_Mammary_Tissue, Epithelial cell (luminal):
response$cellTypes[[2]]$data[[1]]
} # }
