Setter method for maxSignal slot in a occupancyProfileParameters object.

Description

Setter method for maxSignal slot in a occupancyProfileParameters object.

Usage

maxSignal(object) <- value

Arguments

object

object is a occupancyProfileParameters object.

value

value is a numerical value to be assigned to the maxSignal slot.

Details

In the context of ChIPanalyser, maxSignal represents the maximum normalised ChIP-Seq signal of a given Transcription factor (or DNA binding protein). Although, A default value of 1 has been assigned to this slot, we strongly recommend to tailor this value accordingly. We strongly encourage to set values when building a occupancyProfileParameters object.

Value

Returns a occupancyProfileParameters with an updated value for maxSignal.
