Access the bulk RNA-seq data from the Tabula Muris Senis consortium.

TabulaMurisSenisBulk(infoOnly = FALSE)

Arguments

infoOnly

Logical scalar. If TRUE, only print the total size of the files that will be downloaded to and/or retrieved from the cache.

Value

If infoOnly is FALSE, return a SingleCellExperiment object with a single matrix of counts. Otherwise, returns `NULL`.

Details

The data set was downloaded from GEO (accession number GSE132040). The summary statistics from HTSeq-count were combined with the provided sample metadata and included in the colData of the object. In addition, gene annotations from GENCODE vM19 were downloaded and included in the rowRanges of the object.
