Description

Container for high-throughput mass-spectrometry assays and experimental metadata. This class is based on Biobase's "eSet" virtual class, with the notable exception that 'assayData' slot is an environment contain objects of class "Spectrum".

Objects from the Class

A virtual Class: No objects may be created from it. See "MSnExp" for instantiatable sub-classes.

Slots

assayData:

Object of class "environment" containing the MS spectra (see "Spectrum1" and "Spectrum2").

phenoData:

Object of class "AnnotatedDataFrame" containing experimenter-supplied variables describing sample (i.e the individual tags for an labelled MS experiment) See phenoData for more details.

featureData:

Object of class "AnnotatedDataFrame" containing variables describing features (spectra in our case), e.g. identificaiton data, peptide sequence, identification score,... (inherited from "eSet"). See featureData for more details.

experimentData:

Object of class "MIAPE", containing details of experimental methods. See experimentData for more details.

protocolData:

Object of class "AnnotatedDataFrame" containing equipment-generated variables (inherited from "eSet"). See protocolData for more details.

processingData:

Object of class "MSnProcess" that records all processing.

.cache:

Object of class environment used to cache data. Under development.

.__classVersion__:

Object of class "Versions" describing the versions of the class.

Extends

Class "VersionedBiobase", directly. Class "Versioned", by class "VersionedBiobase", distance 2.

Methods

Methods defined in derived classes may override the methods described here.

[

$

$<-

signature(x = "pSet"): replace or add a sample annotation column in the pData.

abstract

Access abstract in experimentData.

assayData

signature(object = "pSet"): Access the assayData slot. Returns an environment.

desciption

signature(x = "pSet"): Synonymous with experimentData.

dim

signature(x = "pSet"): Returns the dimensions of the phenoData slot.
