idProteinType: A function to determine viable baits, viable preys, or...

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) Examples

Description

These functions take a bait to prey directed graphNEL and returns either a character vector of all proteins which participates in homodimer relationships or a list of three character vectors: a vector of viable baits, a vector of viable prey, and a vector of the viable bait/prey.

Usage

1
2
idViableProteins(bpGraph, homomer=TRUE)
idHomodimers(bpGraph)

Arguments

bpGraph

A directed graphNEL

homomer

A logical. If True, homomer relationships will also be used to characterize proteins as viable baits, viable prey, and also as viable bait/prey simultaneously. If False, those proteins whose only intraction is a homomer relationship will not be characterized as viable in any context.

Value

The return value for idHomodimers is a character vector of those proteins which participates in homomer relationships.

The return value for idViableProteins is a list of two character vectors:

VB

A vector of baits that finds at least one prey in the experimental graphNEL, i.e. the nodes with out-degree at greater than 0. If homomer = FALSE, those proteins which participate in only homomer relationships will not be returned.

VP

A vector of prey which is found by at least one bait in the experimental graphNEL, i.e. the nodes with in-degree at greater than 0. If homomer = FALSE, those proteins which participate in only homomer relationships will not be returned.

VBP

A vector of proteins that are both viable baits and viable prey in an experimental dataset as defined above. If homomer = FALSE, those proteins which participate in only homomer relationships will not be returned.
