Filter genes with low expression

Usage

filter_low_exp_genes(se_ln, min_count_per_group = 10, assay_name = "counts")

Arguments

se_ln

A SummarizedExperiment object

min_count_per_group

The minimum threshold of gene count (default: 10)

assay_name

Name of assay to use (default: "counts")

Value

A SummarizedExperiment subset of genes with greater than n counts

Examples

data(example_se)

# Step 1: Filter low expression genes
se_filtered <- filter_low_exp_genes(se_ln = example_se, 
                                    min_count_per_group = 10, 
                                    assay_name = "counts")
