racExSet-class {GGBase} | R Documentation

## Class "racExSet" – container for genotype data in 'rare allele count' form and expression data. Approaching obsolescence, see smlSet for more efficient representation.

### Description

Class "racExSet" – container for genotype data in 'rare allele count' form and expression data. Approaching obsolescence, see smlSet for more efficient representation.

### Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form `new("racExSet", phenoData, experimentData, annotation, exprs, racs, rarebase, SNPalleles)`.

### Slots

`racAssays`:
  Object of class `"AssayData"` S x N matrix holding rare allele counts
`rarebase`:
  Object of class `"character"` nucleotide code for rare allele of each SNP in the population assayed
`SNPalleles`:
  Object of class `"character"` nucleotide code for polymorphism
`assayData`:
  Object of class `"AssayData"` expression data container
`phenoData`:
  Object of class `"AnnotatedDataFrame"` sample data container
`featureData`:
  Object of class `"AnnotatedDataFrame"` expression feature metadata container
`experimentData`:
  Object of class `"MIAME"` experiment level metadata
`annotation`:
  Object of class `"character"` Bioconductor annotation package name
`.__classVersion__`:
  Object of class `"Versions"` class version metadata

### Extends

Class `"eSet"`, directly. Class `"VersionedBiobase"`, by class "eSet", distance 2. Class `"Versioned"`, by class "eSet", distance 3.
