The goal of this exercise is to make you familiar with how to download data from Google Sheets and to briefly review some key concepts R functions and coding concepts.
We’ll do the following things

FIRST, WE NEED TO GIVE R A LINK TO THE GOOGLE SHEET THAT WE WANT TO PULL INFORMATION FROM
spreadsheet_sp <- "https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1spC_ZA3_cVuvU3e_Jfcj2nEIfzp-vaP7SA5f-qwQ1pg/edit?usp=sharing" SECOND, WE NEED TO HAVE FREE ACCESS TO THE GOOGLE SHEET
# be sure to run this!
googlesheets4::gs4_deauth() # <====== MUST RUN THISThird, we download our data.
NOTE!: sometimes Google Sheets or the function gets cranky and throws this error:
“Error in curl::curl_fetch_memory(url, handle = handle) : Error in the HTTP2 framing layer”
If that happens, just re-run the code.
# I include this again in case you missed is the first time : )

dim(seleno_df_noDups)## [1] 37 2RETRIEVING DATA AND COMPARING SEQUENCES
Let’s select 2 random sequences to work with. We’ll use SAMPLE() to select a random index number to get
First, lets make a vector that contains a unique number for each row of data
indices <- 1:nrow(seleno_df_noDups)This would do the same thing
# with dim
indices <- 1:dim(seleno_df_noDups)[1]
# with length
indices <- 1:length(seleno_df_noDups$gene)or hard-coded
indices <- 1:37We can then use SAMPLE() to select 2 random numbers from this vector.
For x = we’ll use our vector of indices (1 to 37). For size we’ll use 2, since we want to pull out just 2 numbers. For replace we’ll use FALSE since we don’t want to be able to select the same number twice.
i.random.genes <- sample(x = indices,
size = 2,
replace = FALSE)Hard coded this would be
i.random.genes <- sample(x = c(1:37),
size = 2,
replace = FALSE)This gives me 2 indices values.
i.random.genes## [1] 20 21I can now use these index values to pull out 2 rows of data

For old-times sake we can make a dotplot.
Now for a dotplot
WE ASSIGNED EACH SEQUENCE TO ITS OWN VARIABLE
prot1_vector <- seleno_thingy_clean[[1]]
prot2_vector <- seleno_thingy_clean[[2]]We can dotplot like this
seqinr::dotPlot(prot1_vector,
prot1_vector)
HERE WE DIRECTLY ASSIGNED THE SEQUENCE TO THE DOTPLOT INSTEAD OF A VARIABLE FIRST
seqinr::dotPlot(seleno_thingy_clean[[1]],
seleno_thingy_clean[[2]])Pairwise alignment
dotPlot likes things in a single vector, but pairwiseAlignment like a single string of characters, so as always we have to process the data.
THIS CHUNK IS PROCESSING THE DATA AND TURNING A VECTOR INTO A STRING THE "" SHOWS THAT WE ARE PUTTING NO SPACE IN BETWEEN EACH CHARACTER
prot1_str <- paste(seleno_thingy_clean[[1]],sep = "", collapse = "")
prot2_str <- paste(seleno_thingy_clean[[2]],sep = "", collapse = "")So now things look like this THIS IS NOW ONE CONTINUOUS STRING

The score is negative, but on its own that THERE ARE VERY FEW EXACT AND SIMILAR MATCHES OF AMINO ACIDS
score(align_out)## [1] -160.2561pid gives us THE PERCENTAGE OF AMINO ACIDS THAT ARE THE SAME
pid(align_out)## [1] 7.189542Of course, pid can be calculated several ways (THERE ARE DIFFERENT PIDS BASED ON WHETHER THE CODE IS CONSIDERING SIMILAR AMINO ACIDS WHICH CAN BE PROBLEMATIC WHEN IT IS NOT CLEAR TO THE READER WHICH PID IS BEING USED)
