The goal of regutools is to provide an R interface for extracting and processing data from RegulonDB. This package was created as a collaboration by members of the Community of Bioinformatics Software Developers (CDSB in Spanish).
For more details, please check the documentation website or the Bioconductor package landing page here.
You can install the released version of regutools from Bioconductor with:
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) {
install.packages("BiocManager")
}
BiocManager::install("regutools")
## Check that you have a valid Bioconductor installation
BiocManager::valid()And the development version from GitHub with:
BiocManager::install("ComunidadBioinfo/regutools")This is a basic example which shows you how to use regutools. For more details, please check the vignette.
library("regutools")
## basic example code
## Connect to the RegulonDB database if necessary
if (!exists("regulondb_conn")) regulondb_conn <- connect_database()
#> snapshotDate(): 2021-08-03
#> adding rname 'https://www.dropbox.com/s/ufp6wqcv5211v1w/regulondb_v10.8_sqlite.db?dl=1'
## Build a regulondb object
e_coli_regulondb <-
regulondb(
database_conn = regulondb_conn,
organism = "E.coli",
database_version = "1",
genome_version = "1"
)
## Get the araC regulators
araC_regulation <-
get_gene_regulators(
e_coli_regulondb,
genes = c("araC"),
format = "multirow",
output.type = "TF"
)
## Summarize the araC regulation
get_regulatory_summary(e_coli_regulondb, araC_regulation)
#> regulondb_result with 3 rows and 7 columns

Get the latest stable R release from CRAN. Then install regutools from Bioconductor using the following code:
if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) {
install.packages("BiocManager")
}
