在R for循环中使用哪些问题

我有两个数据帧。第一个数据框是遗传变异,它们的标识符及其在染色体上的位置的列表。第二个是基因列表,其中每行中的列指定基因在染色体上的起始和终止位置。

我想看看哪些遗传变异属于由start_20和stop_20 cols表示的基因'范围'。遗传变异可能落入超过1个基因的范围内。例如,这里snp“rs1”将映射到基因A和基因B。

这是我到目前为止所尝试的:

基因范围

chromosome<-c("1", "1", "2")
start_20<-c("1", "1", "5")  
stop_20<-c("4", "4", "6")  
gene<-c("A", "B", "C") 

genelist=data.frame(chromosome, start_20,  stop_20, gene,stringsAsFactors=F  )

sns的df及其位置

chromosome<-c("1", "2")
snp<-c("rs1", "rs2")
position<-c("3", "5") 

snplist=data.frame(chromosome,snp,position,stringsAsFactors=F)

目的是通过碱基对位置将snps与基因匹配(即snp 1具有'3'的位置,这意味着它映射到基因A和基因B)。

genelist.bychrome <- vector("list", 2)

染色体基因列表。

for(i in 1:2) genelist.bychrome[[i]] <- genelist[genelist[,"chromosome"]==i,]  

长度为nrow的空容器(snplist)  如果你找到一个

,将匹配的基因放在这里
gene.matched <- rep("",nrow(snplist))

gene.matched<-as.list(gene.matched)

#looping across each observation in snplist

    for(i in 1:nrow(snplist)){

# snplist[i,"chromosome"] is the chromosome of interest
# Because of consecutive ordering genelist.bychrome[[3]] gives the genelist       for chromosome 3

 Therefore, genelist.bychrome[[ snplist[i,"chromosome"] ]] gives the genelist for the chromosome of interest

 VERY IMPORTANT: get.gene gives the index in genelist.bychrome[[     snplist[i,"chromosome"] ]], NOT genelist

        if(snplist[i,"chromosome"] <= 1){ 

                get.gene<- which((genelist.bychrome[[ snplist[i,"chromosome"] ]][,"stop_20"] >= snplist[i,"position"])  &    

            # get matching list element of genelist.bychrome 
            # in this element collect indices for rows where stop position is greater than the postion of the snp and
            # start position is less than the position of the snp
            # this should collect multiple rows for some snps   
            # dump the gene for this index in the matching element of gene.matched 
            # i.e get.gene<- which(genelist.bychrome[[1]]  [,"stop_20"] >= snplist[1,3])  & (genelist.bychrome[[1]]  [,"start_20"] <= snplist[1,3])
            # gene.matched <- genelist.bychrome[[1]][get.gene,"gene"]


                    ( genelist.bychrome[[ snplist[i,"chromosome"] ]][,"start_20"] <= snplist[i,"position"])) # correct                  
                        if(length(get.gene)!=0) gene.matched[i]<- genelist.bychrome[[ snplist[i,"chromosome"] ]][get.gene,"gene"]
                             } 

                                    } # end for()

#bind the matched genes to the snplist
    snplist.new <- cbind(snplist,gene.matched)

任何提示都将不胜感激!谢谢。

我相信你的问题出在For循环中的which语句中。因为如果你添加as.numeric(),这条线将按预期工作。试试这个,genelist.bychrome[[as.numeric(snplist[i,"chromosome"]) ]]

但总的来说,我建议将数字向量定义为数值数据类型,除非你有理由不这样做,比如你的染色体向量可以定义为c(1,1,2)而不是c(“1 ”, “1”, “2”)。每当您使用定义为字符串的数字数据时,也可以使用as.numeric(),例如在引用列表索引,比较操作等时。

让我知道这是否有效。

更新:通过删除第一个if语句解决问题,按照建议投射矢量'as.numeric',并在开始时制作一个没有预定长度的空列表(这可能并不总是一个好主意我猜)。

谢谢!

#make data frames

     genelist = data.frame(chromosome=c(1,1,2),start_20=c(1, 1, 5), stop_20=c(4, 4, 6), gene=c("A", "B", "C"), stringsAsFactors=F)

     snplist=data.frame(chromosome=c(1,2),snp=c("rs1", "rs2"),position=c(3,5),stringsAsFactors=F)

 #objective is to get genes per snp

    genelist.bychrome <- vector("list", 2)
    for(i in 1:2) genelist.bychrome[[i]] <-   genelist[genelist[,"chromosome"]==i,]  

    gene.matched <- list()

 #looping across each observation in snplist

    for(i in 1:nrow(snplist)){

                get.gene<-  which((genelist.bychrome[[as.numeric(snplist[i,"chromosome"]) ]] [,"stop_20"] >=  snplist[i,"position"])  &                         
                    (genelist.bychrome[[as.numeric(snplist[i,"chromosome"]) ]] [,"start_20"] <= snplist[i,"position"]))

                        if(length(get.gene)!=0) gene.matched[[i]]<- genelist.bychrome[[ snplist[i,"chromosome"] ]][get.gene,"gene"]

                            }                   

    names(gene.matched)=snplist$snp
