disengagementScore {ORFik} | R Documentation

## Disengagement score (DS)

### Description

Disengagement score is defined as

    (RPFs over ORF)/(RPFs downstream to tx end)

A pseudo-count of one is added to both the ORF and downstream sums.

### Usage

    disengagementScore(grl, RFP, GtfOrTx)

### Arguments

`grl` | a `GRangesList` object with usually either leaders, cds', 3' utrs or ORFs.
`RFP` | RiboSeq reads as GAlignment, GRanges or GRangesList object
`GtfOrTx` | If it is `TxDb` object transcripts will be extracted using `exonsBy(Gtf, by = "tx", use.names = TRUE)`. Else it must be `GRangesList`

### Value

a named vector of numeric values of scores

### Examples

    ORF <- GRanges(seqnames = "1",
                   ranges = IRanges(start = c(1, 10, 20), end = c(5, 15, 25)),
                   strand = "+")
    grl <- GRangesList(tx1_1 = ORF)
    tx <- GRangesList(tx1 = GRanges("1", IRanges(1, 50), "+"))
    RFP <- GRanges("1", IRanges(c(1,10,20,30,40), width = 3), "+")
    disengagementScore(grl, RFP, tx)
