extrProtPAAC: Pseudo Amino Acid Composition Descriptor

In BioMedR: Generating Various Molecular Representations for Chemicals, Proteins, DNAs, RNAs and Their Interactions

Description

Pseudo Amino Acid Composition Descriptor

Usage

extrProtPAAC(x, props = c("Hydrophobicity", "Hydrophilicity",
  "SideChainMass"), lambda = 30, w = 0.05, customprops = NULL)

Arguments

x	A character vector, as the input protein sequence.
props	A character vector, specifying the properties used. 3 properties are used by default, as listed below: 'Hydrophobicity' Hydrophobicity value of the 20 amino acids 'Hydrophilicity' Hydrophilicity value of the 20 amino acids 'SideChainMass' Side-chain mass of the 20 amino acids
lambda	The lambda parameter for the PAAC descriptors, default is 30.
w	The weighting factor, default is 0.05.
customprops	A n x 21 named data frame contains n customize property. Each row contains one property. The column order for different amino acid types is 'AccNo', 'A', 'R', 'N', 'D', 'C', 'E', 'Q', 'G', 'H', 'I', 'L', 'K', 'M', 'F', 'P', 'S', 'T', 'W', 'Y', 'V', and the columns should also be exactly named like this. The AccNo column contains the properties' names. Then users should explicitly specify these properties with these names in the argument props. See the examples below for a demonstration. The default value for customprops is NULL.

Details

This function calculates the Pseudo Amino Acid Composition (PAAC) descriptor (Dim: 20 + lambda, default is 50).

Value

A length 20 + lambda named vector

Note

Note the default 20 * 3 prop values have been already independently given in the function. Users could also specify other (up to 544) properties with the Accession Number in the AAindex data, with or without the default three properties, which means users should explicitly specify the properties to use.
