Quantitative features for mass spectrometry data

What is QFeatures?

QFeatures is a Bioconductor
package that provides
infrastructure to management and process quantitative features for
high-throughput mass spectrometry-based proteomics assays. It provides
a familiar Bioconductor user experience to manage quantitative data
across different assay levels (such as precursors, peptide spectrum
matches, peptides and proteins or protein groups) in a coherent and
tractable format.

If you are familiar with the MSnbase package, QFeatures could be
summarised with:

Evolving MSnSet data towards SummarizedExperiment, but for
proteomics data.

Getting started

The QFeatures class is used to manage and process quantitative
features for high-throughput mass spectrometry assays. See the
QFeatures
introduction
to get started and the Processing quantitative proteomics data with
QFeatures
vignette for a real-life application. Visualisation of quantitative
mass spectrometry data contained in a QFeatures object is
illustrated in the Data
visualisation
vignette.
