This package provides a convenient way to access the LINCS Signatures available in the iLINCS database. These signatures include Consensus Gene Knockdown Signatures, Gene Overexpression signatures and Chemical Perturbagen Signatures. It also provides a way to enter your own transcriptomic signatures and identify concordant and discordant signatures in the LINCS database.

DepInfeR integrates two experimentally accessible input data matrices: the drug sensitivity profiles of cancer cell lines or primary tumors ex-vivo (X), and the drug affinities of a set of proteins (Y), to infer a matrix of molecular protein dependencies of the cancers (ß). DepInfeR deconvolutes the protein inhibition effect on the viability phenotype by using regularized multivariate linear regression. It assigns a “dependence coefficient” to each protein and each sample, and therefore could be used to gain a causal and accurate understanding of functional consequences of genomic aberrations in a heterogeneous disease, as well as to guide the choice of pharmacological intervention for a specific cancer type, sub-type, or an individual patient.

Assorted files generated from droplet-based single-cell protocols, to be used for testing functions in DropletUtils. Primarily intended for storing files that directly come out of processing pipelines like 10X Genomics CellRanger software, prior to the formation of a SingleCellExperiment object. Unlike other packages, this is not designed to provide objects that are immediately ready for analysis.

This package performs degradation normalization in bulk RNA-seq data to improve differential expression analysis accuracy. It provides estimates for each gene within each sample.

Given a set of clustering labels, Dune merges pairs of clusters to increase mean ARI between labels, improving replicability.

This package assists in demultiplexing scRNAseq data using both cell hashing and SNPs data. The SNP profile of each group os learned using high confidence assignments from the cell hashing data. Cells which cannot be assigned with high confidence from the cell hashing data are assigned to their most similar group based on their SNPs. We also provide some helper function to optimise SNP selection, create training data and merge SNP data into the SingleCellExperiment framework.

dStruct identifies differentially reactive regions from RNA structurome profiling data. dStruct is compatible with a broad range of structurome profiling technologies, e.g., SHAPE-MaP, DMS-MaPseq, Structure-Seq, SHAPE-Seq, etc. See Choudhary et al., Genome Biology, 2019 for the underlying method.

The main function is doppelgangR(), which takes as minimal input a list of ExpressionSet object, and searches all list pairs for duplicated samples. The search is based on the genomic data (exprs(eset)), phenotype/clinical data (pData(eset)), and "smoking guns" - supposedly unique identifiers found in pData(eset).

Intuitive framework for identifying spatially variable genes (SVGs) and differential spatial variable pattern (DSP) between conditions via edgeR, a popular method for performing differential expression analyses. Based on pre-annotated spatial clusters as summarized spatial information, DESpace models gene expression using a negative binomial (NB), via edgeR, with spatial clusters as covariates. SVGs are then identified by testing the significance of spatial clusters. For multi-sample, multi-condition datasets, we again fit a NB model via edgeR, incorporating spatial clusters, conditions and their interactions as covariates. DSP genes-representing differences in spatial gene expression patterns across experimental conditions-are identified by testing the interaction between spatial clusters and conditions. See Cai et al. (2024) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btae027> and Cai et al. (2026) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btag450>.

The diffUTR package provides a uniform interface and plotting functions for limma/edgeR/DEXSeq -powered differential bin/exon usage. It includes in addition an improved version of the limma::diffSplice method. Most importantly, diffUTR further extends the application of these frameworks to differential UTR usage analysis using poly-A site databases.

DEqMS is developped on top of Limma. However, Limma assumes same prior variance for all genes. In proteomics, the accuracy of protein abundance estimates varies by the number of peptides/PSMs quantified in both label-free and labelled data. Proteins quantification by multiple peptides or PSMs are more accurate. DEqMS package is able to estimate different prior variances for proteins quantified by different number of PSMs/peptides, therefore acchieving better accuracy. The package can be applied to analyze both label-free and labelled proteomics data.

This package provides expression profile and CNV data for glioblastoma from TCGA, and transcriptional and post-translational regulatory networks assembled with the ARACNe and MINDy algorithms, respectively.

This package provides functions for creating various visualizations, convenient wrappers, and quality-of-life utilities for single cell experiment objects. It offers a streamlined approach to visualize results and integrates different tools for easy use.

This package provides functionality for performing divergence analysis as presented in Dinalankara et al, "Digitizing omics profiles by divergence from a baseline", PANS 2018. This allows the user to simplify high dimensional omics data into a binary or ternary format which encapsulates how the data is divergent from a specified baseline group with the same univariate or multivariate features.

The dks package consists of a set of diagnostic functions for multiple testing methods. The functions can be used to determine if the p-values produced by a multiple testing procedure are correct. These functions are designed to be applied to simulated data. The functions require the entire set of p-values from multiple simulated studies, so that the joint distribution can be evaluated.

DeMixT is a software package that performs deconvolution on transcriptome data from a mixture of two or three components.

dinoR tests for significant differences in NOMe-seq footprints between two conditions, using genomic regions of interest (ROI) centered around a landmark, for example a transcription factor (TF) motif. This package takes NOMe-seq data (GCH methylation/protection) in the form of a Ranged Summarized Experiment as input. dinoR can be used to group sequencing fragments into 3 or 5 categories representing characteristic footprints (TF bound, nculeosome bound, open chromatin), plot the percentage of fragments in each category in a heatmap, or averaged across different ROI groups, for example, containing a common TF motif. It is designed to compare footprints between two sample groups, using edgeR's quasi-likelihood methods on the total fragment counts per ROI, sample, and footprint category.

Differential open reading frame (ORF) translation analysis framework for ribosome profiling (Ribo-seq) with matched RNA-seq. Implements (i) Differential ORF Usage (DOU), a beta-binomial generalized linear model that models the expected proportion of Ribo-seq versus RNA-seq reads mapping to each ORF within a gene, and (ii) ORF-level Differential Translation Efficiency (DTE), a negative binomial GLM that capture changes in translation efficiency of individual ORFs across experimental conditions. Supports ORF-level read summarization for bulk and single-cell Ribo-seq.

This package reproduces the main pipeline to analyze the AMC-AJCCII-90 microarray data set in De Sousa et al. accepted by Nature Medicine in 2013.

DriverNet is a package to predict functional important driver genes in cancer by integrating genome data (mutation and copy number variation data) and transcriptome data (gene expression data). The different kinds of data are combined by an influence graph, which is a gene-gene interaction network deduced from pathway data. A greedy algorithm is used to find the possible driver genes, which may mutated in a larger number of patients and these mutations will push the gene expression values of the connected genes to some extreme values.

This package detects significant differentially methylated regions (for both qualitative and quantitative traits), using a scan statistic with underlying Poisson heuristics. The scan statistic will depend on a sequence of window sizes (# of CpGs within each window) and on a threshold for each window size. This threshold can be calculated by three different means: i) analytically using Siegmund et.al (2012) solution (preferred), ii) an important sampling as suggested by Zhang (2008), and a iii) full MCMC modeling of the data, choosing between a number of different options for modeling the dependency between each CpG.

The package DAPAR is a Bioconductor distributed R package which provides all the necessary functions to analyze quantitative data from label-free proteomics experiments. Contrarily to most other similar R packages, it is endowed with rich and user-friendly graphical interfaces, so that no programming skill is required (see `Prostar` package).

Many two-colour hybridizations suffer from a dye bias that is both gene-specific and slide-specific. The former depends on the content of the nucleotide used for labeling; the latter depends on the labeling percentage. The slide-dependency was hitherto not recognized, and made addressing the artefact impossible. Given a reasonable number of dye-swapped pairs of hybridizations, or of same vs. same hybridizations, both the gene- and slide-biases can be estimated and corrected using the GASSCO method (Margaritis et al., Mol. Sys. Biol. 5:266 (2009), doi:10.1038/msb.2009.21).
