Package 'RaMS'

Title: R Access to Mass-Spec Data
Description: R-based access to mass-spectrometry (MS) data. While many packages exist to process MS data, many of these make it difficult to access the underlying mass-to-charge ratio (m/z), intensity, and retention time of the files themselves. This package is designed to format MS data in a tidy fashion and allows the user perform the plotting and analysis.

S3 indexing for msdata_connection objects

Description

This is the step that actually performs the file opening and extraction!

Usage

## S3 method for class 'msdata_connection'
msdata_obj[sub_func]

Arguments

msdata_obj

An msdata_connection object containing files and grab_what

sub_func

The function that will be parsed and used to subset the file

Value

A data.table with columns rt, mz, int, and filename


S3 dollar sign notation for msdata_connection objects

Description

S3 dollar sign notation for msdata_connection objects

Usage

## S3 method for class 'msdata_connection'
msdata_obj$ms_level

Arguments

msdata_obj

An msdata_connection object containing files and grab_what

ms_level

The requested MS level of the object

Value

An msdata_connection object with only a single MS level


Check that the output data is properly formatted.

Description

This function checks that data produced by repeated calls to the 'grabMzmlData()' and 'grabMzxmlData()' functions is formatted properly before it's provided to the user. It checks that all of the requested data has been obtained and warns if data is found to be empty, misnamed, or has columns of the wrong type.

Usage

checkOutputQuality(output_data, grab_what)

Arguments

output_data

The collected data resulting from repeated calls to 'grabMzmlData()', after being bound together.

grab_what

The names of the data requested by the user.

Value

NULL (invisibly). The goal of this function is its side effects, i.e. throwing errors and providing info when the files are not found.


Edit mzML/mzXML file retention times

Description

This function uses the basic XML parsing of RaMS to modify the retention times of MS scans within the mzML/mzXML files. This method can be useful for performing RT correction using one platform and then peakpicking and correspondence on another. The basic method is simply replacing the scan's recorded retention time value with an arbitrary one of your choosing. This function is vectorized to handle multiple files, while the internal 'editMzmlRTs()' and 'editMzxmlRTs()' do most of the heavy lifting. Note that the seconds vs minutes must be closely monitored here - the unit should be the same as the one in the file originally.

Usage

editMSfileRTs(
  files,
  new_rt_list,
  new_filenames = NULL,
  interp_method = "linear",
  overwrite = FALSE
)

Arguments

files

Vector of filenames (including the relative/absolute path)

new_rt_list

Nested of new retention times. One entry in the list for each file (in the same order as the files), each containing a vector of new retention times. RT vectors can be equal to either every scan or just every MS1 scan. If only the MS1 scans are provided in a file with additional MS levels, MSn scan RTs will be interpolated according to interp_method (below)

new_filenames

Vector of filenames (including relative/absolute paths) describing where the edited files should be written out. Can be the same as files but will throw a warning and append _rtcor to each file unless 'overwrite = TRUE' (below)

interp_method

Either "linear" or "constant". Describes the way that MSn retention times should be handled when only the MS1 values are provided. "linear" (the default) means that the spacing will be preserved, while "constant" will use the associated MS1 scan RT for all MSn scans, allowing an easy method of linking the MSn to the MS1.

overwrite

Boolean. Controls whether files are overwritten in place if 'new_filenames' is not provided.

Value

Invisibly, the names of the edited files.

Grab mass-spectrometry data from file(s)

Description

The main 'RaMS' function. This function accepts a list of the files that will be read into R's working memory and returns a list of 'data.table's containing the requested information. What information is requested is determined by the 'grab_what' argument, which can include MS1, MS2, BPC, TIC, or metadata information. This function serves as a wrapper around both 'grabMzmlData' and 'grabMzxmlData' and handles multiple files, but those two have also been exposed to the user in case super-simple handling is desired. Retention times are reported in minutes, and will be converted automatically if they are encoded in seconds.

Usage

grabMSdata(
  files,
  grab_what = "everything",
  verbosity = NULL,
  incl_polarity = FALSE,
  mz = NULL,
  ppm = NULL,
  rtrange = NULL,
  prefilter = -1
)

Arguments

files

A character vector of filenames to read into R's memory. Both absolute and relative paths are acceptable.

grab_what

What data should be read from the file? Options include "MS1" for data only from the first spectrometer, "MS2" for fragmentation data, "BPC" for rapid access to the base peak chromatogram, "TIC" for rapid access to the total ion chromatogram, "DAD" for DAD (UV) data, and "chroms" for precompiled chromatogram data (especially useful for MRM but often contains BPC/TIC in other files). Metadata can be accessed with "metadata", which provides information about the instrument and time the file was run. These options can be combined (i.e. 'grab_data=c("MS1", "MS2", "BPC")') or this argument can be set to "everything" to extract all of the above. Options "EIC" and "EIC_MS2" are useful when working with files whose total size exceeds working memory - it first extracts all relevant MS1 and MS2 data, respectively, then discards data outside of the mass range(s) calculated from the provided mz and ppm. The default, "everything", includes all MS1, MS2, BPC, TIC, and metadata.

verbosity

Three levels of processing output to the R console are available, with increasing verbosity corresponding to higher integers. A verbosity of zero means that no output will be produced, useful when wrapping within larger functions. A verbosity of 1 will produce a progress bar using base R's txtProgressBar function. A verbosity of 2 or higher will produce timing output for each individual file read in. The default, NULL, will select between 1 and 2 depending on the number of files being read: if a single file, verbosity is set to 2; if multiple files, verbosity is set to 1.

incl_polarity

Toggle this option to TRUE for mixed-polarity files. An additional column will be added corresponding to the polarity of the scan, with either a 1 or a -1 corresponding to positive and negative mode, respectively.

mz

A vector of the mass-to-charge ratio for compounds of interest. Only used when combined with 'grab_what = "EIC"' (see above). Multiple masses can be provided.

ppm

A single number corresponding to the mass accuracy (in parts per million) of the instrument on which the data was collected. Only used when combined with 'grab_what = "EIC"' (see above).

rtrange

Only available when parsing mzML files. A vector of length 2 containing an upper and lower bound on retention times of interest. Providing a range here can speed up load times (although not enormously, as the entire file must still be read) and reduce the final object's size.

prefilter

A single number corresponding to the minimum intensity of interest in the MS1 data. Data points with intensities below this threshold will be silently dropped, which can dramatically reduce the size of the final object. Currently only works with MS1 data, but could be expanded easily to handle more.

Value

A list of 'data.table's, each named after the arguments requested in grab_what. E.g. $MS1 contains MS1 information, $MS2 contains fragmentation info, etc. MS1 data has four columns: retention time (rt), mass-to-charge (mz), intensity (int), and filename. MS2 data has six: retention time (rt), precursor m/z (premz), fragment m/z (fragmz), fragment intensity (int), collision energy (voltage), and filename. MS3 adds an additional column to this (prepremz) corresponding to the initial MS1 m/z targeted. Data requested that does not exist in the provided files (such as MS2 data requested from MS1-only files) will return an empty (length zero) data.table. The data.tables extracted from each of the individual files are collected into one large table using data.table's 'rbindlist'. $metadata is a little weirder because the metadata doesn't fit neatly into a tidy format but things are hopefully named helpfully. $chroms was added in v1.3 and contains 7 columns: chromatogram type (usually TIC, BPC or SRM info), chromatogram index, target mz, product mz, retention time (rt), and intensity (int). $DAD was also added in v1.3 and contains has three columns: retention time (rt), wavelength (lambda),and intensity (int). Data requested that does not exist in the provided files (such as MS2 data requested from MS1-only files) will return an empty (zero-row) data.table.

Examples

library(RaMS)

# Extract MS1 data from a couple files
sample_dir <- system.file("extdata", package = "RaMS")
sample_files <- list.files(sample_dir, full.names=TRUE)
multifile_data <- grabMSdata(sample_files[c(3,5,6)], grab_what="MS1")

Grab the BPC or TIC from a file

Description

The base peak intensity and total ion current are actually written into the mzML files and aren't encoded, making retrieval of BPC and TIC information blazingly fast if parsed correctly.

Arguments

xml_data

An 'xml2' nodeset, usually created by applying 'read_xml' to an mzML file.

rtrange

A vector of length 2 containing an upper and lower bound on retention times of interest. Providing a range here can speed up load times (although not enormously, as the entire file must still be read) and reduce the final object's size.

TIC

Boolean. If TRUE, the TIC is extracted rather than the BPC.

incl_polarity

Boolean determining whether the polarity of the scan should be returned as a column in the table (positive mode = 1, negative mode = -1)

Value

A 'data.table' with columns for retention time (rt), and intensity (int).

file_metadata

Information about the file used to decode the binary arrays containing m/z and intensity information.

Value

A 'data.table' with columns for retention time (rt), wavelength (lambda), and intensity (int).


Get mass-spectrometry data from an mzML file

Description

This function handles the mzML side of things, reading in files that are written in the mzML format. Much of the code is similar to the mzXML format, but the xpath handles are different and the mz/int array is encoded as two separate entries rather than simultaneously. This function has been exposed to the user in case per-file optimization (such as peakpicking or additional filtering) is desired before the full data object is returned.

Usage

grabMzmlData(
  filename,
  grab_what,
  verbosity = 0,
  incl_polarity = FALSE,
  mz = NULL,
  ppm = NULL,
  rtrange = NULL,
  prefilter = -1
)

Arguments

filename

A single filename to read into R's memory. Both absolute and relative paths are acceptable.

grab_what

What data should be read from the file? Options include "MS1" for data only from the first spectrometer, "MS2" and "MS3" for fragmentation data, "BPC" for rapid access to the base peak chromatogram, "TIC" for rapid access to the total ion chromatogram, "DAD" for DAD (UV) data, and "chroms" for precompiled chromatogram data (especially useful for MRM but often contains BPC/TIC in other files). Metadata can be accessed with "metadata", which provides information about the instrument and time the file was run. These options can be combined (i.e. 'grab_data=c("MS1", "MS2", "BPC")') or this argument can be set to "everything" to extract all of the above. Options "EIC", "EIC_MS2", and "EIC_MS3" are useful when working with files whose total size exceeds working memory - it first extracts all relevant MS1/2/3 data, respectively, then discards data outside of the mass range(s) calculated from the provided mz and ppm. The default, "everything", includes all MS1, MS2, BPC, TIC, and metadata.

verbosity

Three levels of processing output to the R console are available, with increasing verbosity corresponding to higher integers. A verbosity of zero means that no output will be produced, useful when wrapping within larger functions. A verbosity of 1 will produce a progress bar using base R's txtProgressBar function.

MS2 data has six: retention time (rt), precursor m/z (premz), fragment m/z (fragmz), fragment intensity (int), collision energy (voltage), and filename. MS3 has an additional column to MS2 (prepremz) which has the original MS1 scan's m/z ratio. Data requested that does not exist in the provided files (such as MS2 data requested from MS1-only files) will return an empty (length zero) data.table. The data.tables extracted from each of the individual files are collected into one large table using data.table's 'rbindlist'. $metadata is a little weirder because the metadata doesn't fit neatly into a tidy format but things are hopefully named helpfully. $chroms was added in v1.3 and contains 7 columns: chromatogram type (usually TIC, BPC or SRM info), chromatogram index, target mz, product mz, retention time (rt), and intensity (int). $DAD was also added in v1.3 and contains has three columns: retention time (rt), wavelength (lambda),and intensity (int).

  ppm = NULL,
  prefilter = -1
)

Arguments

filename

A single filename to read into R's memory. Both absolute and relative paths are acceptable.

grab_what

What data should be read from the file? Options include "MS1" for data only from the first spectrometer, "MS2" for fragmentation data, "BPC" for rapid access to the base peak chromatogram, and "TIC" for rapid access to the total ion chromatogram. DAD and chromatogram ("DAD" and "chroms") are unavailable for mzXML files. Metadata can be accessed with "metadata", which provides information about the instrument and time the file was run. These options can be combined (i.e. 'grab_data=c("MS1", "MS2", "BPC")') or this argument can be set to "everything" to extract all of the above.

A verbosity of 2 or higher will produce timing output for each individual file read in.

incl_polarity

Toggle this option to TRUE for mixed-polarity files. An additional column will be added corresponding to the polarity of the scan, with either a 1 or a -1 corresponding to positive and negative mode, respectively.

rtrange

Not supported for mzXML data. Only provided here so as to throw a friendly warning rather than an unexpected error.

mz

A vector of the mass-to-charge ratio for compounds of interest. Only used when combined with 'grab_what = "EIC"' (see above). Multiple masses can be provided.

ppm

A single number corresponding to the mass accuracy (in parts per million) of the instrument on which the data was collected. Only used when combined with 'grab_what = "EIC"' (see above).

prefilter

A single number corresponding to the minimum intensity of interest in the MS1 data. Data points with intensities below this threshold will be silently dropped, which can dramatically reduce the size of the final object. Currently only works with MS1 data, but could be expanded easily to handle more.

Value

A list of 'data.table's, each named after the arguments requested in grab_what. E.g. $MS1 contains MS1 information, $MS2 contains fragmentation info, etc. MS1 data has four columns: retention time (rt), mass-to-charge (mz), intensity (int), and filename. MS2 data has six: retention time (rt), precursor m/z (premz), fragment m/z (fragmz), fragment intensity (int), collision energy (voltage), and filename. MS3 has an additional column to MS2 (prepremz) which has the original MS1 scan's m/z ratio. Data requested that does not exist in the provided files (such as MS2 data requested from MS1-only files) will return an empty (length zero) data.table. The data.tables extracted from each of the individual files are collected into one large table using data.table's 'rbindlist'. $metadata is a little weirder because the metadata doesn't fit neatly into a tidy format but things are hopefully named helpfully.

Shrink MS data by including only data points near masses of interest

Description

MS files can be annoyingly large if only a few masses are of interest. This large size makes it difficult to share them online for debugging purposes and often means that untargeted algorithms spend a lot of time picking peaks in data that's irrelevant. minifyMSdata is a function designed to "minify" MS files by extracting only those data points that are within the ppm error of an m/z value of interest, and returns the file essentially otherwise unchanged.

Usage

minifyMSdata(
  files,
  output_files = NULL,
  mz_exclude = NULL,
  mz_include = NULL,
  ppm = NULL,
  warn = TRUE,
  prefilter = -1,
  verbosity = NULL
)

Arguments

files

The name of a single file to be minified, usually produced by Proteowizard's 'msconvert' or something similar.

output_files

The name of the file to be written out.

mz_exclude

A vector of m/z values that should be excluded from the minified file. This argument must be used with the 'ppm' argument and should not be used with mz_include. For each mass provided, an m/z window of +/- 'ppm' is calculated, and all data points within that window are removed.

mz_include

A vector of m/z values that should be included in the minified file. This argument must be used with the 'ppm' argument and should not be used with mz_exclude. For each mass provided, an m/z window of +/- 'ppm' is calculated, and all data points within that window are kept.

ppm

The parts-per-million error of the instrument used to collect the original file.

warn

Boolean. Should the function warn the user when removing an index from an mzML file?

prefilter

A single number corresponding to the minimum intensity of interest in the MS1 data. Data points with intensities below this threshold will be silently dropped, which can dramatically reduce the size of the final object. Currently only works with MS1 data, but could be expanded easily to handle more.

verbosity

A single number with a sensible default behavior. If larger than 2, will render a progress bar as files are processed.

Value

Invisibly, the name of the new files.

Examples

## Not run: 
library(RaMS)
# Extract data corresponding to only valine and homarine

Group m/z values into bins of a specified ppm width

Description

This function bins m/z values based on their proximity to each other in m/z space. The algorithm takes the first value in the m/z vector and uses that as the center of a window with a ppm value provided by the user and assigns all m/z values within that window to the same group, then removes those values from consideration and repeats the process until there are no points left to group. This is often used to construct chromatograms from raw MS data that can then be visualized or peakpicked. The function can also drop groups of m/z values if there's not enough points within them or produce only a certain number of groups. Because the algorithm uses the first value in the m/z vector as the window center, it's often a good idea to first sort the values by decreasing intensity.

Usage

mz_group(mz_vals, ppm, min_group_size = 0, max_groups = NULL)

Arguments

mz_vals

A numeric vector of m/z values

ppm

A length-1 numeric vector specifying the desired window size in ppm

min_group_size

max_groups

A length-1 numeric vector specifying the maximum number of total groups to assign.

Value

A numeric vector of the same length as mz_vals specifying the group into which each m/z value was binned. Values not assigned to a group are returned as NAs.

Examples

example_mz_vals <- c(118.0, 118.1, 138.0, 152.0, 118.2, 138.1, 118.1)

Quick plot for MS data

Description

Syntactic sugar for a common chromatogram plot. Will use 'ggplot2' if available but has a base plot implementation for use even in ultra lightweight situations. Accepts the default MS1 output from 'grabMSdata' of a data.table (or base data.frame) with columns for rt (retention time) and int (intensity) as well as filename. Creates a plot of intensity vs retention time with one trace per file. A few additional 'ggplot2' arguments are also made available for easy coloring or facetting by providing the name of the associated column to the 'color_col' and 'facet_col' arguments, respectively.

Usage

qplotMS1data(
  MS1_df,
  color_col = NULL,
  facet_col = NULL,
  facet_args = list(ncol = 1),
  force_base = FALSE
)

Arguments

MS1_df

A data.table with at least three columns named rt, int, and filename

color_col

The name of the column to color by. Must be quoted.

facet_col

The name of the column to facet by. Must be quoted.

facet_args

Since the call to facet_wrap is within the function, you can provide additional facet customization arguments here as a list. Although if you're starting to fiddle with facets you'll probably be better served by the proper 'ggplot' call.

force_base

Boolean option to force base R graphics instead of 'ggplot' even if the 'ggplot2' package is installed.

Value

If 'ggplot2' is installed, a 'ggplot' object that can be further modified via additional + commands. Otherwise, NULL and the plot appears via base graphics at the active device.

Examples

test_df <- expand.grid(rt=rep(1:100, length.out=1000))
test_df$int <- rep(dnorm(seq(-10, 10, length.out=100)), 10)*10+runif(1000)
test_df$filename <- rep(LETTERS[1:10], each=100)
qplotMS1data(test_df)

test_df$startime <- rep(gl(2, 5, labels = c("Morn", "Eve")), each=100)

Maker of tmzML documents

Description

This function converts mzML and mzXML documents into "transposed" mzML (tmzML) documents. Traditional mass-spec data is organized by scan number, corresponding to retention time, but this isn't always the most sensible format. Often, it makes more sense to organize a mass-spec file by m/z ratio instead. This allows parsers to scan and decode a much smaller portion of the file when searching for a specific mass, as opposed to the traditional format which requires that every scan be opened, searched, and subset. The tmzML document implements this strategy and allows the creation of MS object representations that use essentially zero memory because the data is read off the disk instead of being stored in RAM. RaMS has been designed to interface with these new file types identically to traditional files, allowing all your favorite tidyverse tricks to work just as well and much more quickly.

Usage

tmzmlMaker(input_filename, output_filename = NULL, verbosity = 0, binwidth = 3)

Arguments

input_filename

Character vector of length 1 with the name of the file to be converted. Can only handle mzML and mzXML currently - other formats should be converted to one of these first, using (for example) Proteowizard's msconvert tool.

output_filename

The name of the file that will be written out. Should end in ".tmzML" and will throw a warning otherwise. Often, it makes sense to have two folders in a working directory, one containing the original mzML files and a second, parallel folder for the tmzMLs.

verbosity

Numeric value between 0 and 2, corresponding to level of verbosity shared by the function as it proceeds. 0 means no output, 1 will produce mile markers after file opening, MS1 and MS2 conversion, and 2 will provide progress bars between each mile marker.

binwidth

Numeric value controlling the width of the bins in m/z space to create. Because MS data is created in such a way that m/z values are continuous, they must be binned together to create a discrete representation that can be searched efficiently. Lower values (0.1-1) will have faster retrieval times, while higher values (5-10) will have faster conversion times.

Value

An msdata_connection object. This object behaves exactly like a normal RaMS list with values for MS1, MS2, etc. but secretly just contains pointers to the files requested because the data is extracted on the fly. The S3 msdata_connection object is necessary to create new behaviors for '$' and '[' that allow indexing like normal.

Examples

## Not run: 
sample_dir <- system.file("extdata", package = "RaMS")
sample_files <- list.files(sample_dir, full.names=TRUE, pattern="LB.*mzML")
