RcisTarget identifies transcription factor binding motifs (TFBS) over-represented on a gene list. In a first step, RcisTarget selects DNA motifs that are significantly over-represented in the surroundings of the transcription start site (TSS) of the genes in the gene-set. This is achieved by using a database that contains genome-wide cross-species rankings for each motif. The motifs that are then annotated to TFs and those that have a high Normalized Enrichment Score (NES) are retained. Finally, for each motif and gene-set, RcisTarget predicts the candidate target genes (i.e. genes in the gene-set that are ranked above the leading edge).

Fit-Hi-C is a tool for assigning statistical confidence estimates to intra-chromosomal contact maps produced by genome-wide genome architecture assays such as Hi-C.

BioNERO aims to integrate all aspects of biological network inference in a single package, including data preprocessing, exploratory analyses, network inference, and analyses for biological interpretations. BioNERO can be used to infer gene coexpression networks (GCNs) and gene regulatory networks (GRNs) from gene expression data. Additionally, it can be used to explore topological properties of protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. GCN inference relies on the popular WGCNA algorithm. GRN inference is based on the "wisdom of the crowds" principle, which consists in inferring GRNs with multiple algorithms (here, CLR, GENIE3 and ARACNE) and calculating the average rank for each interaction pair. As all steps of network analyses are included in this package, BioNERO makes users avoid having to learn the syntaxes of several packages and how to communicate between them. Finally, users can also identify consensus modules across independent expression sets and calculate intra and interspecies module preservation statistics between different networks.

This package provides functions necessary to perform Weighted Correlation Network Analysis on high-dimensional data. It includes functions for rudimentary data cleaning, construction and summarization of correlation networks, module identification and functions for relating both variables and modules to sample traits. It also includes a number of utility functions for data manipulation and visualization.

The purpose of biocViews is to create HTML pages that categorize packages in a Bioconductor package repository according to keywords, also known as views, in a controlled vocabulary.

This package provides tools to analyze and visualize high-throughput metabolomics data acquired using chromatography-mass spectrometry. These tools preprocess data in a way that enables reliable and powerful differential analysis.

This package facilitates phyloseq exploration and analysis of taxonomic profiling data. This package provides tools for the manipulation, statistical analysis, and visualization of taxonomic profiling data. In addition to targeted case-control studies, microbiome facilitates scalable exploration of population cohorts. This package supports the independent phyloseq data format and expands the available toolkit in order to facilitate the standardization of the analyses and the development of best practices.

The rpx package implements an interface to proteomics data submitted to the ProteomeXchange consortium.

The two main functions in the package are pairwiseAlignment and stringDist. The former solves (Needleman-Wunsch) global alignment, (Smith-Waterman) local alignment, and (ends-free) overlap alignment problems. The latter computes the Levenshtein edit distance or pairwise alignment score matrix for a set of strings.

Exploratory data analysis to assess the quality of a set of LC-MS/MS experiments, and visualize de influence of the involved factors.

This is an R package for interfacing with the BIOM format. This package includes basic tools for reading biom-format files, accessing and subsetting data tables from a biom object (which is more complex than a single table), as well as limited support for writing a biom-object back to a biom-format file. The design of this API is intended to match the Python API and other tools included with the biom-format project, but with a decidedly "R flavor" that should be familiar to R users. This includes S4 classes and methods, as well as extensions of common core functions/methods.

This is an annotation package for Illumina's EPIC methylation arrays.

ChemmineOB provides an R interface to a subset of cheminformatics functionalities implemented by the OpelBabel C++ project. OpenBabel is a free cheminformatics toolbox that includes utilities for structure format interconversions, descriptor calculations, compound similarity searching and more. ChemineOB aims to make a subset of these utilities available from within R. For non-developers, ChemineOB is primarily intended to be used from ChemmineR as an add-on package rather than used directly.

The Power Law Global Error Model (PLGEM) has been shown to faithfully model the variance-versus-mean dependence that exists in a variety of genome-wide datasets, including microarray and proteomics data. The use of PLGEM has been shown to improve the detection of differentially expressed genes or proteins in these datasets.

This package is an R package dedicated to the analysis of (multiplexed) 4C sequencing data. r-fourcseq provides a pipeline to detect specific interactions between DNA elements and identify differential interactions between conditions. The statistical analysis in R starts with individual bam files for each sample as inputs. To obtain these files, the package contains a Python script to demultiplex libraries and trim off primer sequences. With a standard alignment software the required bam files can be then be generated.

This package provides a client for the gypsum REST API (https://gypsum.artifactdb.com), a cloud-based file store in the ArtifactDB ecosystem. This package provides functions for uploads, downloads, and various administrative and management tasks. Check out the documentation at https://github.com/ArtifactDB/gypsum-worker for more details.

This package provides functions to ease the transition between Rmarkdown and LaTeX documents when authoring a Bioconductor Workflow.

This package contains classes used in model-view-controller (MVC) design.

This package provides efficient low-level and highly reusable S4 classes for storing ranges of integers, RLE vectors (Run-Length Encoding), and, more generally, data that can be organized sequentially (formally defined as Vector objects), as well as views on these Vector objects. Efficient list-like classes are also provided for storing big collections of instances of the basic classes. All classes in the package use consistent naming and share the same rich and consistent "Vector API" as much as possible.

This package provides methods to convert between Python AnnData objects and SingleCellExperiment objects. These are primarily intended for use by downstream Bioconductor packages that wrap Python methods for single-cell data analysis. It also includes functions to read and write H5AD files used for saving AnnData objects to disk.

The biobtreeR package provides an interface to biobtree, a tool which covers large sets of bioinformatics datasets and allows search and chain mappings functionalities.

This package works analogous to BiocManager but for Docker images. Use the BiocDockerManager package to install and manage Docker images provided by the Bioconductor project.

Graphite provides networks derived from eight public pathway databases, and automates the conversion of node identifiers (e.g. from Entrez IDs to gene symbols).

This package implements various algorithms for inferring mutual information networks from data.
