getExprForRxnScore

PURPOSE ^

getExprForRxnScore

SYNOPSIS ^

function expr = getExprForRxnScore(scores, threshold)

DESCRIPTION ^

 getExprForRxnScore
   Converts a reaction score to the gene expression (CPM or TPM) required 
   to get that reaction score, if the GPR is only a single gene.
   Useful function primarily in test cases, where you want to be able to
   define the reaction scores of rxns, but need to send in gene expression.

   scores        Vector of scores to convert
   threshold     Gene threshold (opt, default 1)

   expr          The resulting gene expression vector.

   Usage: expr = getExprForRxnScore(scores, threshold)
