This function accesses the targets slot of a
MirnaExperiment
object. After retrieving miRNA targets with the getTargets() function,
the interactions between miRNAs and target genes are stored in the
targets slot and can be explored with this function.
Arguments
- object
A
MirnaExperimentobject containing miRNA and gene data
Value
A data.frame object containing the interactions between miRNAs and target
genes, as retrieved with the getTargets() function.
