LRBaseDbi

LRBaseDbi provides a DBI-based interface to construct LRBase annotation packages (LRBase.XXX.eg.db) for ligand-receptor interaction data.

Key Features:

• LRBase Package Construction: Enables programmatic generation of species-specific LRBase annotation databases following the standard Bioconductor .eg.db package format.
• DBI Interface: Implements database interface methods for storing and querying ligand-receptor pair annotations.

Scientific Applications:

• Ligand-Receptor Interaction Analysis: Supports construction of reference databases for studying cell-cell communication through ligand-receptor pairs across different species.

Methodology:

The package uses DBI to provide a database interface for constructing LRBase.XXX.eg.db packages.
