Proteomics

activeProteinList(proteomicsEx, proteomicsGenes, treshold, printLevel)[source]

Split a list of proteins into active and inactive sets using an expression threshold

USAGE:

[activeProteins, inactiveProteins] = activeProteinList (proteomicsEx, proteomicsGenes, treshold, printLevel)

INPUTS:
  • proteomicsEx – logarithmic mean proteomic expression value for each protein

  • proteomicsGenes – gene identifiers corresponding to each expression value

  • treshold – expression threshold used to classify a protein as active

  • printLevel – set greater than 2 to plot a histogram of the expression values

OUTPUTS:
  • activeProteins – genes whose expression is at or above the threshold

  • inactiveProteins – genes classified as inactive

EXAMPLE:
