Source: R/tissue_dist.R
tissue_dist.Rd

A dist object describing distances from a subset of tissue gene expression data from the following papers:

  • http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17906632

  • http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21177656

  • http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24271388 obtained from the tissuesGeneExpression bioconductor package.

Usage

tissue_dist

Format

A dist object of 189 tissue types

Details

The original data frame had 189 rows, each with a corresponding tissue, such as colon, kidney or cerebellum. There were 22,215 columns corresponding to gene expression data from each of these rows. This was then converted into a distance matrix.
