miRNApath: Pathway Enrichment for miRNA Expression Data
Description
This package provides methods for assessing the statistical
over-representation of miRNA effects on gene sets, using
supplied miRNA-to-gene associations. Because these associations
are notably many-to-many (one miRNA to many genes; one gene
affected by many miRNAs) the assessment is complex and warrants
perhaps different approaches than are classically performed on
differential gene expression datasets.
