Gene signatures and common-gene universe used by RunESTIMATE() to compute stromal, immune, combined ESTIMATE, and tumor-purity scores without requiring the external estimate package.

Format

A list with five entries:

stromal_signature

Character vector of stromal signature genes.

immune_signature

Character vector of immune signature genes.

common_genes

Character vector of common genes used for filtering.

common_gene_aliases

Data frame mapping common gene symbols to aliases.

source

List with source method, source data, and DOI metadata.

Source

Derived from tidyestimate 1.1.1 CRAN data files, which are derived from the MD Anderson ESTIMATE implementation. The scoring references are Yoshihara et al. (2013) and Barbie et al. (2009).
