getMotifDistMat.Rd
Retrieve motif dissimilarity/distance matrix for TF motifs
getMotifDistMat(assembly = "hg38", mmObj = NULL, method = "jaspar")
genome assembly for which the motifs dissimilarity should be retrieved. Only the species information
of the assembly is really relevant. Can be "vert"
for all vertebrate motifs.
optional motifmatchr object as returned by ChrAccR::prepareMotifmatchr
method of dissimilarity quantification. Currently only 'jaspar'
(retrieve motif similarities from the annotation of the JASPAR website) is supported.
a matrix of motif DISsimilarities (dist
object)
