boundMolecules {ChIPanalyser} | R Documentation

## Accessor methods for `boundMolecules` slot in `occupancyProfileParameters` object.

### Description

Extract or Access `boundMolecules` slot in `occupancyProfileParameters` object.

### Usage

    boundMolecules(object)

### Arguments

`object` | `object` is a `occupancyProfileParameters` object.

### Details

Defaut value: 1000

When computing occupancy (`computeOccupancy`), a value for the number of bound Molecules to DNA is needed. This value can be updated and set in a `occupancyProfileParameters` object. If the number of molecules is unknown,it is possible to infer this value with `computeOptimal`. We strongly encourage to set values when building a `occupancyProfileParameters` object.

### Value

Returns `boundMolecules` slot in `occupancyProfileParameters` object.
