Hi All, I read the help about mva heatmap and I see that it have the argument 'x' (numeric matrix of the values to be plotted). In my case, I normalized my data with marrayNorm and calculated the differentially expressed genes with limma. In limma I have MA, but I do not know how do I do to extract the 'x' values (top 50 diferentially genes). 'x' is the MA value in limma? I look in limma help but I did not obtain success. Would can you suggest me a other document especific about how do I do or a step that explains how do I do to obtain 'x' from the limma object?

'x' is a symbol which stands for an arbitrary quantity, in this case an arbitrary numeric matrix. You are asking, "how can I obtain an arbitrary quantity from a limma object", not a meaningful question. My guess is that you will want the 'coef' component of your limma 'MArrayLM' object, but really you need to decide exactly what it is that you want to make a heatmap of, then we can tell you how to obtain it.

Dear Gordon and All. Before I having known the Bioconductor, I analyzed some data using software SAM. After I to get the differentially expressed genes, I used program SAMSTER to select these genes. Then, I used the softwares Cluster and the TreeView to group those genes in a dendrogram and a pallete green, neutral and red colors. I do not know very well what it is in background of this process, but I would like to accomplish the same procedure here. Any suggestion is very welcome. Also, I can be wanting to accomplish something that is not very interesting! Then, summarizing, I would like to get a dendrogram of differentially expressed genes and one color pallet with green, neutral and red colors indicating the expression (up, neutral or down) of the genes. I dont now if it is a good idea. Thanks very much Best Wishes Marcelo On Tue, 2 Dec 2003 14:17:35 +1100 (EST) "Gordon K Smyth" <smyth@wehi.edu.au> wrote: > 'x' is a symbol which stands for an arbitrary quantity, in this case an > arbitrary numeric matrix.
