pIR

An R package to analyze the isoelectric point of peptides and proteins based on experimental values and predicted using different functions. The package provides an statistical framework to analyze the correlation between predicted and expeted values, and it can be use in other contexts.

Installation

First, we need to install devtools:

install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)

Then we just call

install_github("ypriverol/pIR")
library(pIR)

Examples

=================

# Other different pKSets that can be selected: rodwell, emboss, lehninger, grimsley, patrickios, DtaSelect

library(pIR)
seq <- "GLPRKILCAIAKKKGKCKGPLKLVCKC"
pI <- pIIterative(sequence = seq, pkSetMethod = "solomon")
print(pI)

#The result will be 10.526

#Computing all pI values using Iterative method.

> sequence <- "AADCEVEQWDSDEPIPAK"
> pIvalues <- computeAllIterativeValues(seq = sequence)

#The result will be...
