Hi! I have done a transcription factor inference analysis and I now want to display the result in a heatmap.
I have 3 columns: source, condition and score where the source is the gene names, the condition is the samples and the score is the enrichment score. The problem is that I have the enrichment score for each gene for each samples. Say I have the enrichment score for gene1 for sample1, gene2 for sample1 and gene3 for sample1, I also have the ES for gene1 for sample2, gene2 for sample2 and gene3 for sample2.
So my problem is that I'm not able to make the genes to rownames and the samples to colnames due to duplicates. Does anyone know how I can make a heatmap and display the enrichment score with samples on the "x-axis" and genes on the "y-axis"?
Thanks!

I guess you are using R. load the r package data.frame:
library(data.table)
Your data would look like:
> df source condition score 1 gene1 sample1 0.4299397 2 gene2 sample1 0.4299397 3 gene3 sample1 0.4299397 4 gene1 sample2 0.2531551 5 gene2 sample2 0.2531551 6 gene3 sample2 0.2531551
Now use this command for "unmelt" your df:
dcast(df, source ~ condition, value.var = c("score"))
The output would look like:
source sample1 sample2
1 gene1 0.4299397 0.2531551
2 gene2 0.4299397 0.2531551
3 gene3 0.4299397 0.2531551
Thanks! That worked :)

Can you post first few lines from your table and also your expected output table?
I only have one table and it is that table I want to use for the heatmap visualisation. Here is an example, I don't know how to write it in this comment box, but I will try to make it understandable.
Dont mind the numbers in front of the table. Does this make it clearer?
