qc_intensity_distribution: Check intensity distribution per sample and overall

Description

Plots the overall or sample-wise distribution of all peptide intensities as a boxplot or histogram.

Usage

qc_intensity_distribution(
  data,
  sample = NULL,
  grouping,
  intensity_log2,
  plot_style
)

Value

A histogram or boxplot that shows the intensity distribution over all samples or by sample.

Arguments

data

a data frame that contains at least sample names, grouping identifiers (precursor, peptide or protein) and log2 transformed intensities for each grouping identifier.

sample

an optional character or factor column in the data data frame that contains the sample name. If the sample column is of type factor, the ordering is based on the factor levels. NOTE: If the overall distribution should be returned please do not provide the name of the sample column.

grouping

a character column in the data data frame that contains the grouping variables (e.g. peptides, precursors or proteins).

intensity_log2

a numeric column in the data data frame that contains the log2 transformed intensities of each grouping identifier sample combination.

plot_style

a character value that indicates the plot type. This can be either "histogram", "boxplot" or "violin". Plot style "boxplot" and "violin" can only be used if a sample column is provided.

Examples

set.seed(123) # Makes example reproducible

# Create example data
data <- create_synthetic_data(
  n_proteins = 100,
  frac_change = 0.05,
  n_replicates = 3,
  n_conditions = 2,
  method = "effect_random"
)

# Plot intensity distribution
# The plot style can be changed
qc_intensity_distribution(
  data = data,
  sample = sample,
  grouping = peptide,
  intensity_log2 = peptide_intensity_missing,
  plot_style = "boxplot"
)
