List matrices available in JASPAR of a taxonomic group

Source: R/jaspar.R
rba_jaspar_taxons_matrices.Rd

JASPAR organizes matrix profiles from multiple species in multiple taxonomic groups. Using this function you can list all matrix profiles that are available in a JASPAR release from a taxonomic group.

Usage

rba_jaspar_taxons_matrices(
  tax_group,
  release = 2026,
  only_last_version = FALSE,
  search = NULL,
  order = NULL,
  page_size = 1000,
  page = 1,
  ...
)

Arguments

tax_group

Character: Taxonomic group. Use rba_jaspar_taxons to get a list of supported taxonomic groups.

release

Numeric: (default = 2026) Which JASPAR database release to use? Available options are: 2026, 2024, 2022, 2020, 2018, 2016, and 2014.

only_last_version

Logical: (default = FALSE) If TRUE, only the latest version of a matrix profile will be returned.

Character: A search term.

order

Character: A character string or a vector of character strings of field names that will be used to order the results.
Providing multiple field names is supported. You can also use the prefix "-" before a field name to indicate reverse ordering.

page_size

Numeric: (default = 1000) This resource returns paginated results. What is the maximum number of results that you want to retrieve per page? Accepted values are between 1 and 1000.

page

Numeric: Which page of the results to retrieve? The accepted values depend on the page size and number of results.

...

rbioapi option(s). See rba_options's arguments manual for more information on available options.

Value

A list that contains a data frame with information on matrix profiles available for the taxonomic group.

Details

The results are paginated. You can control the page's size number with the function's arguments. Also, you can use rba_pages to automatically iterate over multiple pages.
