extractDescScales: Scales-Based Descriptors with 20+ classes of Molecular Descriptors

Description

Scales-Based Descriptors with 20+ classes of Molecular Descriptors

Usage

extractDescScales(x, propmat, index = NULL, pc, lag, scale = TRUE,
  silent = TRUE)

Arguments

A character vector, as the input protein sequence.

propmat

The matrix containing the descriptor set for the amino acids, which could be chosen from AAMOE2D, AAMOE3D, AACPSA, AADescAll, AA2DACOR, AA3DMoRSE, AAACF, AABu

index

Integer vector or character vector. Specify which molecular descriptors to select from one of these deseriptor sets by specify the numerical or character index of the molecular descriptors in the descriptor set. Default is NULL, means selecti

Integer. The maximum dimension of the space which the data are to be represented in. Must be no greater than the number of AA properties provided.

lag

The lag parameter. Must be less than the amino acids.

scale

Logical. Should we auto-scale the property matrix (propmat) before doing MDS? Default is TRUE.

silent

Logical. Whether we print the standard deviation, proportion of variance and the cumulative proportion of the selected principal components or not. Default is TRUE.

Value

A length lag * p^2 named vector, p is the number of scales selected.

Details

This function calculates the scales-based descriptors with molecular descriptors sets calculated by Dragon, Discovery Studio and MOE. Users could specify which molecular descriptors to select from one of these deseriptor sets by specify the numerical or character index of the molecular descriptors in the descriptor set.

Examples

Run this code

x = readFASTA(system.file('protseq/P00750.fasta', package = 'protr'))[[1]]
descscales = extractDescScales(x, propmat = 'AATopo', index = c(37:41, 43:47),
                               pc = 5, lag = 7, silent = FALSE)
