rTCRBCRr

The goal of rTCRBCRr is to process the results from clonotyping tools such as trust, mixcr, and immunoseq to analyze the clonotype repertoire metrics

Installation

The package is accepted by the CRAN, you can install the released version of rTCRBCRr from CRAN with:

install.packages("rTCRBCRr")

You can also install the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("sciencepeak/rTCRBCRr")

Example code

Attach packages

library("rTCRBCRr")
library("magrittr")
library("readr")

Read raw data files (trust generated for example) into a list of data frames

present_tool <- c("trust", "mixcr")[1]
example_data_directory <- system.file(paste("extdata", present_tool, sep = "/"), package = "rTCRBCRr")
input_paths <- dir(example_data_directory, full.names = TRUE)
input_files <- dir(example_data_directory, full.names = FALSE)
input_files
#> [1] "sample_01.tsv.bz2" "sample_02.tsv.bz2" "sample_03.tsv.bz2"

sample_names <- sub(".tsv.*", "", input_files)
sample_names
#> [1] "sample_01" "sample_02" "sample_03"

raw_clonotype_dataframe_list <- lapply(input_paths, readr::read_tsv) %>%

Tidy up the clonotype dataframes

The tidy-up consists of four steps, namely four functions:

  1. format_clonotype_to_immunarch_style
  2. remove_nonproductive_CDR3aa
  3. annotate_chain_name_and_isotype_name
  4. merge_convergent_clonotype
# If you only want to test one sample, you can process the only sample as follows.
the_divergent_clonotype_dataframe <- raw_clonotype_dataframe_list[["sample_01"]] %>%
    format_clonotype_to_immunarch_style(., clonotyping_tool = present_tool) %>%
    remove_nonproductive_CDR3aa %>%
    annotate_chain_name_and_isotype_name %>%
    merge_convergent_clonotype

# Then the only one sample should be put into a list, element of which uses the sample name,
# because the later step need a named list of data frames as input.
divergent_clonotype_dataframe_list <- list(sample_01 = the_divergent_clonotype_dataframe)

# Otherwise, normally you will have multiple samples,
# then functional style of processing is preferred as follows.
divergent_clonotype_dataframe_list <- raw_clonotype_dataframe_list %>%
    lapply(., format_clonotype_to_immunarch_style, clonotyping_tool = present_tool) %>%
    lapply(., remove_nonproductive_CDR3aa) %>%
    lapply(., annotate_chain_name_and_isotype_name) %>%
    lapply(., merge_convergent_clonotype)

Calculate and merge repertoire metrics by chains for each sample in the list

This step consists of three functions.

# handle repertoire metrics for all the chains.
all_sample_all_chain_all_metrics_wide_format_dataframe_list <- the_divergent_clonotype_dataframe_list %>%

Clonotype repertoire metrics formulas

The repertoire metrics formula including richness, diversity (Shannon entropy), evenness (Pielou’s eveness), clonality, and median (frequency median) were defined as follows, where p_i is the frequency of {}_i in a sample with N unique clonotypes (Khunger, Rytlewski et al. 2019, Looney, Topacio-Hall et al. 2020). P is the frequency vector of unique clonotypes in a sample.

richness\ =\ N
Shannon\ entropy=-_{i=1}^{N}{p_i_2{(p_i)}}
Pielous\ eveness\ =\
clonality\ =\ 1\ -\ Pielous\ evenness
frequency\ median\ =\ median(P)

The function calculate_repertoire_metrics is essential to implement the repertoire metrics formulas
