load_all_protein_coding_symbols {RITAN} | R Documentation |
The character array returned is, by default, all human protein coding gene symbols. This variable defines the "universe of possible genes" for use in enrichment. Users should load a different "universe" or filter this one down to the most appropriate setting for their current study. For example, if running RNA-Seq, genes are in the universie if they are detected in any sample.
