MetaPlotR: a Perl/R pipeline for plotting metagenes of nucleotide modifications and other transcriptomic sites

Neel — Mon, 05 Nov 2018 08:12:45 -0600

An increasing number of studies are mapping protein binding and nucleotide modifications sites throughout the transcriptome. Often, these sites cluster in certain regions of the transcript, giving clues to their function. Hence, it is informative to summarize where in the transcript these sites occur. A metagene is a simple and effective tool for visualizing the distribution of sites along a simplified transcript model. In this work, we introduce MetaPlotR, a Perl/R pipeline for creating metagene plots.

genoPlotR - plot gene and genome maps project!

Abhimanyu Singh — Wed, 12 Dec 2018 08:33:41 -0600

genoPlotR is a R package to produce reproducible, publication-grade graphics of gene and genome maps. It allows the user to read from usual format such as protein table files and blast results, as well as home-made tabular files.

Features

Linear representation of several segments of DNA
Comparisons represented by areas between the segments (like Artemis, for example)
Reads from common formats: Genbank, EMBL, blast, Mauve, and from user-generated tab files
Plot several subsegments of the same segment on the same line, separated by a //
Automatic or manual placement of the segments on the plot
Add annotations to all the lines
Create smart, automatic annotations for genomes, based on gene names
Add a user-generated tree
Add a global scale or a scale to each line
Use user-defined graphical functions to represent genes

chromoMap-An R package for Interactive Visualization and Annotation of Chromosomes

Neel — Fri, 12 Apr 2019 05:30:41 -0500

Provides interactive, configurable and elegant graphics visualization of the chromosomes or chromosome regions of any living organism allowing users to map chromosome elements (like genes, SNPs etc.) on the chromosome plot. It introduces a special plot viz. the "chromosome heatmap" that, in addition to mapping elements, can visualize the data associated with chromosome elements (like gene expression) in the form of heat colors which can be highly advantageous in the scientific interpretations and research work. The package provide multiple features like visualizing multiple sets, chromosome heat-maps, group annotations, adding hyperlinks, and labelling. The plots can be saved as HTML documents that can be customized and shared easily. In addition, you can include them in R Markdown or in R 'Shiny' applications.

Github replacement !

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 26 Sep 2019 03:42:39 -0500

For a number of reasons researchers have been trying out GitLab as a replacement for for both GitHub and various continuous integration systems, and have been exploring configurations useful for model-fitting pipelines. Researchers turned one of these into an example repository that shows how to use GitLab together with the Rocker Docker images and the drake build system to reproducibly run a project pipeline, using the cacheing functionality across all three tools to make things reasonably speedy and enable both local and remote builds.

Instructions for Creating Your Own R Package

Jit — Wed, 19 Feb 2020 01:22:48 -0600

The following is a step-by-step guide to creating your own R package. Even beyond this course, youmay find this useful for storing functions you create for your own research or for editing existingR packages to suit your needs.

This guide contains three different sets of instructions. If you use RStudio, you can follow the “Ba-sic Instructions” in Section 2 which involve using RStudio’s interface.

PheWAS: R package is designed to provide an accessible interface to the phenome wide association study

BioStar — Thu, 30 Jul 2020 22:06:37 -0500

The PheWAS R package is designed to provide an accessible interface to the phenome wide association study. For a description of the methods available and some simple examples, please see the package vignette or the R documentation. For installation help, see below. ##Installing the PheWAS Package The PheWAS package can be installed using the devtools package. The following code when executed in R will get you started:

install.packages("devtools")
#It may be necessary to install required as not all package dependencies are installed by devtools:
install.packages(c("dplyr","tidyr","ggplot2","MASS","meta","ggrepel","DT"))
devtools::install_github("PheWAS/PheWAS")
library(PheWAS)

Introduction to phylogenies in R

Abhi — Wed, 13 Oct 2021 02:27:21 -0500

R phylogenetics is built on the contributed packages for phylogenetics in R, and there are many such packages. Let's begin today by installing a few critical packages, such as ape, phangorn, phytools, and geiger. To get the most recent CRAN version of these packages, you will need to have R 3.3.x installed on your computer!
