Overview

About

Maintained by Ivo D. Shterev4 releasesCRAN page ↗

Can be used to carry out extraction, normalization, quality control (QC), candidate hits identification and visualization for plate based assays, in drug discovery. The package methods were applied in H. W. Choi et al. "Identification of Novel Mast Cell Activators Using Cell-Based High-Throughput Screening", SLAS Discovery 24(6), 2019. This project was funded by the Division of Allergy, Immunology, and Transplantation, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, under contract No. HHSN272201400054C entitled "Adjuvant Discovery For Vaccines Against West Nile Virus and Influenza", awarded to Duke University and lead by Drs. Herman Staats and Soman Abraham.

Install

R (source archive)Ubuntu (r2u)openSUSE (OBS)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/highSCREEN/highSCREEN_0.4.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "highSCREEN_0.4.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.4) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

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-highscreen

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

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

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-highSCREEN

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
