meanScaledHydropathy: Calculate the Mean Scaled Hydropathy

In idpr: Profiling and Analyzing Intrinsically Disordered Proteins in R

Description

This function utilizes the scaledHydropathyGlobal() function and easily returns the averaged hydropathy as a numeric value.

Usage

meanScaledHydropathy(sequence, roundScore = NA)

Arguments

sequence	amino acid sequence as a single character string, a vector of single characters, or an AAString object. It also supports a single character string that specifies the path to a .fasta or .fa file.
roundScore	Number of decimals the score will be rounded to. NA by default.

Value

A numeric value equal to the Mean Scaled Hydropathy.
