Peptides Build Status CRAN_Download_Badge ======== R package to calculate several physicochemical properties and indices for amino-acid sequences as well as to read and plot ‘XVG’ output files from the ‘GROMACS’ molecular dynamics package

Install

This package required R version 1.2.2 or higher. If you are using an older version of R you will be prompted to upgrade when you try to install the package.

The official release of Peptides is available on CRAN. To install from CRAN, use the following command:

install.packages("Peptides", dependencies=TRUE)

If you have devtools installed, install the latest stable version this package directly from GitHub:

library(devtools)
install_github("dosorio/Peptides")
library(Peptides)
