Motif-class function

The Motif class

The Motif class is designed to store DNA sequence motif information, including motif PWMs or PFMs, motif positions, and metadata. class

Slots

• data: A sparse, binary, feature x motif matrix. Columns correspond to motif IDs, rows correspond to genomic features (peaks or bins). Entries in the matrix should be 1 if the genomic feature contains the motif, and 0 otherwise.
• pwm: A named list of position weight matrices
• motif.names: A list containing the name of each motif
• positions: A GRangesList object containing exact positions of each motif.
• meta.data: A dataframe for storage of additional information related to each motif. This could include the names of proteins that bind the motif.
