plotTimeCourse: Draw time course from RPPA data

Description

Draws time course data from a RPPA data list and calculates a mathematical model on the time course data.

Usage

plotTimeCourse(x, tc.identifier = c("sample", "stimulation", "inhibition", "stim_concentration"),
tc.reference=NULL, plot.split = "experiment", file = "splineplot.pdf",
arrays2rm = c("protein", "Blank"), plotformat = "rawdata",log=T)

Arguments

x

List containing RPPA data set

tc.identifier

character string describing the column names in the sampledescription that identifies the individual time course experiments

tc.reference

character string describing the sample that will be used as reference for the time course plots.

plot.split

character string describing the column names in sampledescription that defines the argument that devides between different plots

file

character string for the name of the exported file

arrays2rm

character strings identifying the targets that should be from the time course plots

plotformat

character string defining the plot type: rawdata, splines,both.

log

logical, if true time courses signal intensities will be plotted at log2 scale

Value

• generates a PDF file

Details

This function plots RPPA time course experiments from data sets with aggregated replicate spots. A column time containing numeric values is required in the sampledescription file. One or several column in the sampledescription file should be able to indentify the individual experiments described in argument tc.identifier. One column should provide a parameter plot.split to split the whole data set into different comparable time courses that have to be plotted together.

Examples

library(RPPanalyzer)
	data(dataII)
	plotTimeCourse(dataII,tc.identifier=c("sample","stimulation","stim_concentration","inhibition")
               ,plot.split="experiment",file="output_ptc_x.pdf",plotformat="both")
