Overview

About

Maintained by Scott BarloweCRAN page ↗

Substitution matrices are important parameters in protein alignment algorithms. These matrices represent the likelihood that an amino acid will be substituted for another during mutation. This tool allows users to apply predefined and custom matrices and then explore the resulting alignments with interactive visualizations. 'SubVis' requires the availability of a web browser.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)

install.packages("SubVis", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-subvis

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make
