plot.fluct: Plot Fluctuations

Description

Produces a plot of atomic fluctuations obtained from ensemble normal mode analysis or molecular dynamics simulations.

Usage

# S3 method for fluct
plot(x,
        col = NULL, label = rownames(x), signif = FALSE,
        p.cutoff = 0.005, q.cutoff = 0.04,
        s.cutoff = 5, n.cutoff = 2, mean = FALSE, polygon = FALSE,
        spread = FALSE, offset = 1,
        ncore = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x

a numeric vector or matrix containing atomic fluctuation data obtained from e.g. nma.pdbs or rmsf.

col

a character vector of plotting colors. Used also to group fluctuation profiles. NA values in col will omit the corresponding fluctuation profile in the plot.

label

a character vector of plotting labels with length matching nrow(x). If mean=TRUE, the length of label can be equal to the number of categories indicated by col.

signif

logical, if TRUE significance of fluctuation difference is calculated and annotated for each atomic position.

p.cutoff

Cutoff of p-value to define significance.

q.cutoff

Cutoff of the mean fluctuation difference to define significance.

s.cutoff

Cutoff of sample size in each group to calculate the significance.

n.cutoff

Cutoff of consecutive residue positions with significant fluctuation difference. If the actual number is less than the cutoff, correponding postions will not be annotated.

mean

logical, if TRUE plot mean fluctuations of each group. Significance is still calculated with the original data.

polygon

logical, if TRUE a nicer plot with area under the line for the first row of x are filled with polygons.

ncore

number of CPU cores used to do the calculation. By default (ncore=NULL), use all available CPU cores. The argument is only used when signif=TRUE.

spread

logical, if TRUE the fluctuation profiles are spread - i.e. not on top of each other.

offset

numerical offset value in use when ‘spread=TRUE’.

…

extra plotting arguments passed to plot.bio3d.

Value

If significance is calculated, return a vector indicating significant positions.

Details

The significance calculation is performed when signif=TRUE and there are at least two groups with sample size larger than or equal to s.cutoff. A "two-sided" student's t-test is performed for each atomic position (each column of x). If x contains gaps, indicated by NAs, only non-gapped positions are considered. The position is considered significant if both p-value <= p.cutoff and the mean value difference of the two groups, q, satisfies q >= q.cutoff. If more than two groups are available, every pair of groups are subjected to the t-test calculation and the minimal p-value along with the q-value for the corresponding pair are used for the significance evaluation.

# NOT RUN {
## load transducin example data
attach(transducin)

## subset of pdbs to analyze
inds = c(1:5, 16:20)
pdbs <- trim(pdbs, row.inds=inds)

## reference RESNO and SSE for axis annotations
resno <- pdbs$resno[1, gaps.res$f.inds]
sse <- pdbs$sse[1, gaps.res$f.inds]

## eNMA calculation and obtain modes of motion including atomic fluctuations
modes <- nma(pdbs, ncore=NULL)
x = modes$fluctuation

## simple line plot with SSE annotation
plot.fluct(x, sse=sse, resno=resno)

## group data by specifying colors of each fluctuation line; same color indicates
## same group. Also do significance calculation and annotation
col = c(rep('red', 5), rep('blue', 5))
plot.fluct(x, col=col, signif=TRUE, sse=sse, resno=resno)

## spread lines
plot.fluct(x, col=col, signif=TRUE, sse=sse, resno=resno, typ='l', spread=TRUE)

## show only line of mean values for each group. 
## Nicer plot with area shaded for the first group.
