\alias{featureCounts2DGEList}
\title{Convert featureCounts object to a DGEList}
\description{
Converts the list output by \code{Rsubread::featureCounts} to a DGEList object.
}
\usage{
featureCounts2DGEList(x)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{a list produced by \code{Rsubread::featureCounts.}}
}
\details{
Rsubread's \code{featureCounts} function counts reads by features (typically exons or genomic intervals) or meta-features (typically genes).
It may also count reads crossing exon-exon junctions or reads internal to exons.
This function assembles all the read counts output by \code{featureCounts} into an DGEList, ensuring unique row.names where appropriate.
The proportion of reads assigned to features is also stored.
