Upgrade and integration of triplex software into the R/Bioconductor framework.
We combined a previously published implementation of a triplex DNA search algorithm with visualization to create a versatile R/Bioconductor package 'triplex'. The new package provides functions that can be used to search Bioconductor genomes and other DNA sequence data for occurrence of nucleotide patterns capable of forming intramolecular triplexes (H-DNA). Functions producing 2D and 3D diagrams of the identified triplexes allow instant visualization of the search results. Leveraging the power of Biostrings and GRanges classes, the results get fully integrated into the existing Bioconductor framework, allowing their passage to other Genome visualization and annotation packages, such as GenomeGraphs, rtracklayer or Gviz.
R package 'triplex' is available from Bioconductor (bioconductor.org).
Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
将三联软件升级并集成到 R/Bioconductor 框架中。
我们将先前发布的三联 DNA 搜索算法的实现与可视化相结合,创建了一个功能强大的 R/Bioconductor 包“triplex”。新的软件包提供了可以用于在 Bioconductor 基因组和其他 DNA 序列数据中搜索能够形成分子内三联体(H-DNA)的核苷酸模式的功能。生成所识别的三联体的 2D 和 3D 图的功能允许即时可视化搜索结果。利用 Biostrings 和 GRanges 类的强大功能,结果完全集成到现有的 Bioconductor 框架中,允许它们传递到其他基因组可视化和注释包,如 GenomeGraphs、rtracklayer 或 Gviz。
R 包“triplex”可从 Bioconductor(bioconductor.org)获得。
