MultiAssayExperiment harmonizes data management of multiple assays performed on an overlapping set of specimens. It provides a familiar Bioconductor user experience by extending concepts from SummarizedExperiment, supporting an open-ended mix of standard data classes for individual assays, and allowing subsetting by genomic ranges or rownames.

This package provides a database of PROVEAN/SIFT predictions for Homo sapiens dbSNP build 137.

This package interfaces R with the graphviz library for plotting R graph objects from the graph package.

The package xmapbridge can plot graphs in the X:Map genome browser. X:Map uses the Google Maps API to provide a scrollable view of the genome. It supports a number of species, and can be accessed at http://xmap.picr.man.ac.uk. This package exports plotting files in a suitable format. Graph plotting in R is done using calls to the functions xmap.plot and xmap.points, which have parameters that aim to be similar to those used by the standard plot methods in R. These result in data being written to a set of files (in a specific directory structure) that contain the data to be displayed, as well as some additional meta-data describing each of the graphs.

The fishpond package contains methods for differential transcript and gene expression analysis of RNA-seq data using inferential replicates for uncertainty of abundance quantification, as generated by Gibbs sampling or bootstrap sampling. Also the package contains a number of utilities for working with Salmon and Alevin quantification files.

This package provides the output of running various transcript abundance quantifiers on a set of 6 RNA-seq samples from the GEUVADIS project. The quantifiers were Cufflinks, RSEM, kallisto, Salmon and Sailfish. Alevin example output is also included.

This package provides support for numerical and graphical summaries of RNA-Seq genomic read data. Provided within-lane normalization procedures to adjust for GC-content effect (or other gene-level effects) on read counts: loess robust local regression, global-scaling, and full-quantile normalization. Between-lane normalization procedures to adjust for distributional differences between lanes (e.g., sequencing depth): global-scaling and full-quantile normalization.

The differences in the RNA types being sequenced have an impact on the resulting sequencing profiles. mRNA-seq data is enriched with reads derived from exons, while GRO-, nucRNA- and chrRNA-seq demonstrate a substantial broader coverage of both exonic and intronic regions. The presence of intronic reads in GRO-seq type of data makes it possible to use it to computationally identify and quantify all de novo continuous regions of transcription distributed across the genome. This type of data, however, is more challenging to interpret and less common practice compared to mRNA-seq. One of the challenges for primary transcript detection concerns the simultaneous transcription of closely spaced genes, which needs to be properly divided into individually transcribed units. The R package transcriptR combines RNA-seq data with ChIP-seq data of histone modifications that mark active Transcription Start Sites (TSSs), such as, H3K4me3 or H3K9/14Ac to overcome this challenge. The advantage of this approach over the use of, for example, gene annotations is that this approach is data driven and therefore able to deal also with novel and case specific events.

This package provides an R interface to Megadepth. It is particularly useful for computing the coverage of a set of genomic regions across bigWig or BAM files. With this package, you can build base-pair coverage matrices for regions or annotations of your choice from BigWig files.

This package provides a fairly extensive and comprehensive interface to the graph algorithms contained in the Boost library.

Piano performs gene set analysis using various statistical methods, from different gene level statistics and a wide range of gene-set collections. The package contains functions for combining the results of multiple runs of gene set analyses.

This package exposes a C elegans annotation database generated from UCSC by exposing these as TxDb objects.

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.

Genomic data analyses requires integrated visualization of known genomic information and new experimental data. Gviz uses the biomaRt and the rtracklayer packages to perform live annotation queries to Ensembl and UCSC and translates this to e.g. gene/transcript structures in viewports of the grid graphics package. This results in genomic information plotted together with your data.

This package provides functions and datasets for maximum likelihood fitting of some classes of graphical Markov models.

The standard index of DNA methylation (beta) is computed from methylated and unmethylated signal intensities. Betas calculated from raw signal intensities perform well, but using 11 methylomic datasets we demonstrate that quantile normalization methods produce marked improvement. The commonly used procedure of normalizing betas is inferior to the separate normalization of M and U, and it is also advantageous to normalize Type I and Type II assays separately. This package provides 15 flavours of betas and three performance metrics, with methods for objects produced by the methylumi and minfi packages.

The global test tests groups of covariates (or features) for association with a response variable. This package implements the test with diagnostic plots and multiple testing utilities, along with several functions to facilitate the use of this test for gene set testing of GO and KEGG terms.

The atena package quantifies expression of TEs (transposable elements) from RNA-seq data through different methods, including ERVmap, TEtranscripts and Telescope. A common interface is provided to use each of these methods, which consists of building a parameter object, calling the quantification function with this object and getting a SummarizedExperiment object as an output container of the quantified expression profiles. The implementation allows quantifing TEs and gene transcripts in an integrated manner.

This package provides the HTSlib C library for high-throughput nucleotide sequence analysis. The package is primarily useful to developers of other R packages who wish to make use of HTSlib.

This package provides lower-level functionality to interface with Google Cloud Platform tools. gcloud and gsutil are both supported. The functionality provided centers around utilities for the AnVIL platform.

This package provides software and data to support the case studies monograph.

This package provides tools to efficiently represent and manipulate genomic annotations and alignments is playing a central role when it comes to analyzing high-throughput sequencing data (a.k.a. NGS data). The GenomicRanges package defines general purpose containers for storing and manipulating genomic intervals and variables defined along a genome.

This package identifies regions of ChIP experiments with high signal in the input, that lead to spurious peaks during peak calling.

This package speeds up the derfinder package when using multiple cores. It is particularly useful when using BiocParallel and it helps reduce the time spent loading the full derfinder package when running the F-statistics calculation in parallel.
