msigdbr: MSigDB data frame

The msigdbr package provides Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB) gene sets in a tidy R data frame.

The data can be accessed using the msigdbr() function, which returns a data frame of gene sets and their member genes.

genesets <- msigdbr()

You can convert the original human genes to their orthologs in other organisms, such as mouse.

genesets <- msigdbr(species = "mouse")

You can retrieve gene sets from a specific collection, such as the Hallmark gene sets.

genesets <- msigdbr(species = "mouse", collection = "H")
