plotFeature {TarSeqQC} | R Documentation

## Plot read profiles for a particular feature.

### Description

`plotFeature` plots the read profiles for a selected feature. The minAAF parameter set the minimum proportion value to call an SNP and the minRD the minimum read depth. They are combined to obtain a minimum read count value at each position used to distinguish between possible SNPs and background noise. If SNPs is set as 'TRUE', colored bars will appear indicating the occurrence of possible SNPs surpassing the minAAF and minRD, at each genomic position.

### Usage

    plotFeature(object, featureID, SNPs = TRUE, minAAF=0.05, minRD=10, xlab = "",
        title = "",  size = 0.5, BPPARAM = bpparam())

    ## S4 method for signature 'TargetExperiment'
    plotFeature(object, featureID, SNPs = TRUE,
        minAAF=0.05, minRD=10, xlab = "", title = featureID, size = 0.5,
        BPPARAM = bpparam())

### Arguments

`object` | TargetExperiment object.
`featureID` | Character indicating the ID of the feature.
`SNPs` | Logical flag indicating if SNPs should be plotted.
`minAAF` | Numeric indicating the minimum alternative allele proportion necessary to call a SNP.
`minRD` | Numeric indicating the minimum read depth of alternative alleles necessary to call a SNP.
`xlab` | Character containing the axis x label.
`title` | Character containing the plot title.
`size` | Numeric indicating the size of line plots.
`BPPARAM` | An optional BiocParallelParam instance defining the parallel back-end to be used during evaluation.

### Value

ggplot2 graphics.
