maxSignal {ChIPanalyser}R Documentation

Accessor method for the maxSignal slot in a occupancyProfileParameters object.

Description

Accessor method for the maxSignal slot in a occupancyProfileParameters object.

Usage

maxSignal(object)

Arguments

object

object is a occupancyProfileParameters object.

Details

In the context of ChIPanalyser, maxSignal represents the maximum normalised ChIP-Seq signal of a given Transcription factor (or DNA binding protein). Although, A default value of 1 has been assigned to this slot, we strongly recommend to tailor this value accordingly. We strongly encourage to set values when building a occupancyProfileParameters object.

Value

Returns the value assigned to the maxSignal slot in a occupancyProfileParameters object.
