Using R to investigate gene XXXX for sequence repeates

Change the XXXXX of the title to your gene name.
Change the names and text appropriately to reflect your gene / protein.
Add the necessary code to make this script functional.
Download the PROTEIN sequence of your gene.
Adapting the code below, make 2 grids of 4 plots (8 plots total) exploring different settings for window size and the match threshold (nmatch)
Use the modified dotplot function to make a plot of your whole gene with only one part shown.
Use the modified dotplot function to plot just a focal section of your gene.
Make sure that all plots have titles relevant to your gene.

This script is based on the Shroom example used in a previous Portfolio assignment.

Make a 2 x 2 grid of dotplots to explore effect of changing window size and nmatch

# set up 2 x 2 grid, make margins thinner
par(mfrow = c(2,2), 
    mar = c(0,0,2,1))

# plot 1:  - Defaults
dotPlot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector, 
        wsize = 1, 
        wstep = 1,
        nmatch = 1, 
        main = "Default")

# plot 2 - size = 10, nmatch = 1
dotPlot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector, 
        wsize = 10, 
        nmatch = 1, 
        main = "Default: wsize = 10, nmatch = 1")

# plot 3:  - size = 10 , nmatch = 5
dotPlot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector , 
        wsize = 10, 
        nmatch = 5, 
        main = "Default: wsize = 10, nmatch = 5")

# plot 4: size = 20, nmatch = 5
dotPlot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector, 
        wsize = 20,
        nmatch = 5,
        main = "Default: wsize = 20, nmatch = 5")

# reset par() - run this or other plots will be small!
par(mfrow = c(1,1), 
    mar = c(4,4,4,4))

Make ANOTER 2 x 2 grid of dotplots to explore effect of changing window size and nmatch

# set up 2 x 2 grid, make margins thinner
par(mfrow = c(2,2), 
    mar = c(0,0,2,1))

# plot 1: 
dotPlot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector, 
        wsize = 1, 
        wstep = 1,
        nmatch = 1,  
        main = "xxxx z / t")

# plot 2 xxxxxxx - size = x, nmatch =x
dotPlot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector, 
        wsize = 10, 
        nmatch = 1,  
        main = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - size = x, nmatch = x")

# plot 3: aaaaaaaaa - size = g, nmatch = z
dotPlot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector , 
        wsize = 10, 
        nmatch = 5,  
        main = "adsf - size = a, nmatch = b")

# plot 4: size = g, nmatch = g
dotPlot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector, 
        wsize = 20,
        nmatch = 5,

# reset par() - run this or other plots will be small!
par(mfrow = c(1,1), 
    mar = c(4,4,4,4))

Best plot using normal dotplot

This is the most interesting gene abcdefghijklmnop dotplot.

# be sure to run par - re-run just in case
par(mfrow = c(1,1), 
    mar = c(4,4,4,4))

dotPlot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector, 
        wsize = 30, 
        nmatch = 5, )

New dotplot function

The code below makes a new dotplot function

Make new function

dot_plot <- function(seq1, seq2, wsize = 1, wstep = 1, nmatch = 1, col = c("white", 
    "black"), xlab = deparse(substitute(seq1)), ylab = deparse(substitute(seq2)), 
    ...) {
  
  # make sure input works
    if (nchar(seq1[1]) > 1) 
        stop("seq1 should be provided as a vector of single chars")
    if (nchar(seq2[1]) > 1) 
        stop("seq2 should be provided as a vector of single chars")
    if (wsize < 1) 
        stop("non allowed value for wsize")
    if (wstep < 1) 
        stop("non allowed value for wstep")
    if (nmatch < 1) 
        stop("non allowed value for nmatch")
    if (nmatch > wsize) 
        stop("nmatch > wsize is not allowed")
  
  # internal function
    mkwin <- function(seq, wsize, wstep) {
        sapply(seq(from = 1, to = length(seq) - wsize + 1, by = wstep), 
            function(i) c2s(seq[i:(i + wsize - 1)]))
    }
    wseq1 <- mkwin(seq1, wsize, wstep)
    wseq2 <- mkwin(seq2, wsize, wstep)
    if (nmatch == wsize) {
        xy <- outer(wseq1, wseq2, "==")
    }
    else {
        "%==%" <- function(x, y) colSums(sapply(x, s2c) == sapply(y, 
            s2c)) >= nmatch
        xy <- outer(wseq1, wseq2, "%==%")
    }
    
    # compile output in list
    out <- list(x = seq(from = 1, to = length(seq1), length = length(wseq1)),
                y = seq(from = 1, to = length(seq2), length = length(wseq2)),
                z = xy)
}

Full-length plot

Use new function on the full-length protein, save output (doesn’t autoplot)

my_dot_out <- dot_plot(P73709_vector, P73709_vector, 
        wsize = 15, 
        wstep = 1,
        nmatch = 5)

Get rid of upper triangular portion

# don't change this
my_dot_out$z[lower.tri(my_dot_out$z)] <- FALSE

Do some weird prep (don’t worry about it)

# don't change this
my_dot_out$z <- my_dot_out$z[, nrow(my_dot_out$z):1]

Plot using image() command

# seriously - it will drive you crazy if you forget about this
par(mfrow = c(1,1), 
    mar = c(4,4,4,4))

# plot with image()
image(x = my_dot_out$x, 
      y = my_dot_out$y, 
      z = my_dot_out$z)

Focal subplot
