idProteinType {ppiStats}R Documentation

A function to determine viable baits, viable preys, or homodimers within experimental data-sets.

Description

These functions take a bait to prey directed graphNEL and returns either a character vector of all proteins which participates in homodimer relationships or a list of two character vectors: a vector of viable baits as well as a vector of viable prey.

Usage

idViableProteins(bpGraph)
idHomodimers(bpGraph)

Arguments

bpGraph A direced graphNEL

Value

The return value for idHomodimers is a character vector of those proteins which participates in homodimer relationships.
The return value for idViableProteins is a list of two character vectors:

viableBaits A vector of baits that finds at least one prey in the experimental graphNEL, i.e. the nodes with out-degree at greater than 0
viablePrey A vector of prey which is found by at least one bait in the experimental graphNEL, i.e. the nodes with in-degree at greater than 0
