Analyze Data for Fluorophore-Assisted Seed Amplification Assays.
QuICSeedR
Overview
QuICSeedR is a comprehensive R package for analyzing and visualizing data from fluorophore-assisted seed amplification assays, such as Real-Time Quaking-Induced Conversion (RT-QuIC) and fluorophore-assisted Protein Misfolding Cyclic Amplification (PMCA). This toolkit addresses limitations in existing software by automating data processing, supporting large-scale analysis, and enabling comparative studies of analysis methods.
Features
- Automated data processing for RT-QuIC and PMCA assays
- Support for large-scale data analysis
- Comparative analysis of different methodologies
- Visualization tools for assay results
- Statistical analysis functions tailored for seed amplification data
Installation
You can install the development version of QuICSeedR from GitHub with:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("mancili/QuICSeedR")
Usage
