pfamAnalyzeR
Protein domains is one of the most import annoation of proteins we have with the Pfam database/tool being (by far) the most used tool. This R package enables the user to read the pfam prediction from both webserver and stand-alone runs into R. We have recently shown most human protein domains exist as multiple distinct variants termed domain isotypes. Different domain isotypes are used in a cell, tissue, and disease-specific manner. Accordingly, we find that domain isotypes, compared to each other, modulate, or abolish the functionality of a protein domain. This R package enables the identification and classification of such domain isotypes from Pfam data.

Analysis of alternative splicing and isoform switches with predicted functional consequences (e.g. gain/loss of protein domains etc.) from quantification of all types of RNA-seq (short/long) by tools such as Kallisto, Salmon, StringTie, Tallon, IsoQuant etc.
An implementation of a probabilistic modeling framework that jointly analyzes personal genome and transcriptome data to estimate the probability that a variant has regulatory impact in that individual. It is based on a generative model that assumes that genomic annotations, such as the location of a variant with respect to regulatory elements, determine the prior probability that variant is a functional regulatory variant, which is an unobserved variable. The functional regulatory variant status then influences whether nearby genes are likely to display outlier levels of gene expression in that person. See the RIVER website for more information, documentation and examples.
This package implements a variety of functions useful for gene set analysis using rotations to approximate the null distribution. It contributes with the implementation of seven test statistic scores that can be used with different goals and interpretations. Several functions are available to complement the statistical results with graphical representations.
Provides an interface to several normalization and statistical testing packages for RNA-Seq gene expression data. Additionally, it creates several diagnostic plots, performs meta-analysis by combinining the results of several statistical tests and reports the results in an interactive way.
Provides an interface to build a unified database of genomic annotations and their coordinates (gene, transcript and exon levels). It is aimed to be used when simple tab-delimited annotations (or simple GRanges objects) are required instead of the more complex annotation Bioconductor packages. Also useful when combinatorial annotation elements are reuired, such as RefSeq coordinates with Ensembl biotypes. Finally, it can download, construct and handle annotations with versioned genes and transcripts (where available, e.g. RefSeq and latest Ensembl). This is particularly useful in precision medicine applications where the latter must be reported.
