Argument Description
object A profileplyr object
con Connection to write/read deeptools data to/from.

Example

The matrix below is an output of the ‘computeMatrix’ function within the deepTools package.
library(profileplyr)

proplyr_object <- import_deepToolsMat(con = "./compute_matrix_HUES64")
proplyr_object
## class: profileplyr

##   E016-H3K27ac.pval.signal ... E013-H3K4me1.pval.signal
##   E013-H3K4me3.pval.signal
## rownames: NULL

This is now a profilplyr object and can be manipulated or visualized within R using the other profileplyr functions. If it is preferred to visualize using deepTOols after manipulation and grouping, the object can always be exported using the ‘export_deepToolsMat’ function.
