Hi all,
I am relatively new to both R and the Bioconductor packages, so
apologies if this is a naïve question. I am using minfi to preprocess
a small set (60 samples) of Illumina450k microarray data. I have got
to the point where I have a GenomicMethylSet, following the use of
mapToGenome on a MethylSet to provide annotation, having excluded
those probes without a defined position in the process. I now wish to
exclude probes from the sex chromosomes before using dmpFinder, and so
I am seeking to subset the GenomicMethylSet to the autosomes only.
Despite days of searching and a number of references saying this is
relatively straightforward, I have not yet had any success (have been
exploring GenomicRanges). Could someone please point me in the right
direction with a code snippet or a reference?
Kind regards,
Toby.
