Extracts names of genes that were clustered together with canonical immune and CAF genes in the expression-methylation correlation matrix. This is used mostly for filtering those genes from additional analysis such as cis-regulation.

get_TME_genes(em_list, immune_gene = "CD3D", caf_gene = "CAV1")

Arguments

em_list

output of em_cross_cor

immune_gene

name of canonical immune gene (default: CD3D). If NULL - only CAF genes would be returned.

caf_gene

name of canonical immune gene (default: CAV1). If NULL - only immune genes would be returned.

Value

vector with names of TME genes
