rnb.plot.region.profile.density {RnBeads} | R Documentation

## rnb.plot.region.profiles

### Description

Plots the density of methylation levels accross all regions of the specified type

### Usage

    rnb.plot.region.profile.density(
      rnb.set,
      sample,
      region.type = "",
      region.profile = NULL,
      extend.by = 0.33
    )

### Arguments

`rnb.set` | RnBSet object
`sample` | Index or name of the sample for which the plot should be generated
`region.type` | Region type for which the plot should be generated
`region.profile` | Alternative to specifying `region.type`, the function can accept a region profile generated by the `rnb.find.relative.site.coord` function
`extend.by` | A number between 0 and 1 specifying the percentage by which a region is extended in order to capture methylation information before region start and after region end

### Value

a ggplot2 object for plotting the plot shows the density of methylation levels of sites accross the specified region type for all regions of that type from 0 (region start) to 1 (region end). Sites in the flanking areas are also shown (coordinates <0 and >1).
