Arguments

object

An mzIDpeptides object

x

An mzIDpeptides object

safeNames

Should column names be lowercased to ensure compatibility between v1.0 and v1.1 files?

Details

The information is stored in a dataframe with an id, an optinal name and the amino acid sequence of the peptide. Alongside a list is stored with modification information of each peptide. Each row in the dataframe has a corresponding entry en the list. If no modification of the peptide is present the entry is NULL, if a modification is present the entry is a dataframe, listing the different modifications of the peptide.

Methods (by generic)

Slots

peptides

A data.frame containing all peptides used in the search

modifications

A list containing possible modifications of the peptides listed in @peptides

Objects from the class

Objects of mzIDpeptides are not meant to be created explicitly but as part of the mzID-class. Still object can be created with the constructor mzIDpeptides.
