PolyPhenDb-class: PolyPhenDb objects

Description

The PolyPhenDb class is a container for storing a connection to a PolyPhen sqlite database.

Details

PolyPhen (Polymorphism Phenotyping) is a tool which predicts the possible impact of an amino acid substitution on the structure and function of a human protein by applying empirical rules to the sequence, phylogenetic and structural information characterizing the substitution.

PolyPhen makes its predictions using UniProt features, PSIC profiles scores derived from multiple alignment and matches to PDP or PQS structural databases. The procedure can be roughly outlined in the following steps, see the references for complete details,

PolyPhen uses empirically derived rules to predict that a non-synonymous SNP is

Methods

In the code below, x is a PolyPhenDb object.

metadata(x): Returns x's metadata in a data frame.

columns(x): Returns the names of the columns that can be used to subset the data columns. For column descriptions see ?PolyPhenDbColumns.

keys(x): Returns the names of the keys that can be used to subset the data rows. The keys values are the rsid's.

select(x, keys = NULL, columns = NULL, ...): Returns a subset of data defined by the character vectors keys and columns. If no keys are supplied, all rows are returned. If no columns are supplied, all columns are returned. See ?PolyPhenDbColumns for column descriptions.

duplicateRSID(x): Returns a named list of duplicate rsid groups. The names are the keys, the list elements are the rsid's that have been reported as having identical chromosome position and alleles and therefore translating into the same amino acid residue substitution.
