Overview

About

Provides a computational framework for analyzing mutations in immunoglobulin (Ig) sequences. Includes methods for Bayesian estimation of antigen-driven selection pressure, mutational load quantification, building of somatic hypermutation (SHM) models, and model-dependent distance calculations. Also includes empirically derived models of SHM for both mice and humans.

Changes in 1.4.0

Backwards Incompatible Changes:

  • Removed the unused cloneColumn argument from observedMutations(), expectedMutations(), and calcBaseline(). Calls that still pass cloneColumn will now fail with an "unused argument" error and must drop the argument. Results are unchanged, as the argument was never used.

Distance Profiling:

  • findThreshold(method="gmm") results can now be reproduced by calling set.seed() beforehand. Previously, the fitting procedure reset the random number generator internally, so results differed between runs and the caller's random number generator state was overwritten.
  • Improved the speed and memory usage of distToNearest() when assigning sequences to groups.

Targeting Models:

  • Fixed the built-in U5N targeting model, which was missing the numMutS and numMutR slots and would error (no slot of name "numMutS"...) on any operation reading those slots. Model values are unchanged.
