use Cell Ontology and Protein Ontology to identify cell-type defining conditions in which a given gene is named

sym2CellOnto(sym, cl, pr)

Arguments

sym: gene symbol, must be used in protein ontology as a PRO:DNx exact match token
cl: result of getOnto("cellOnto")
pr: result of getOnto("PROnto")

Value

DataFrame if any hits are found. A field 'cond' abbreviates the identified conditions: (has/lacks)PMP (plasma membrane part) (hi/lo)PMAmt (plasma membrane amount), (has/lacks)Part.

Note

Currently just checks for *plasma_membrane_part, *plasma_membrane_amount, and *Part conditions.
