MetMashR

MetMashR merges, filters, sorts, organises and combines metabolite annotation tables from multiple software sources using modular workflow steps.

Key Features:

• Multi-source import: Metabolite annotations can be imported from multiple sources and software.
• S4 class workflow framework: Workflow steps are based on S4 class templates derived from the struct package.
• Table combination: Annotation tables from different sources can be combined through workflow steps.
• Filtering: Modular workflow steps for filtering annotation tables are included.
• Merging: Modular workflow steps for merging annotation tables are included.
• Splitting: Modular workflow steps for splitting annotation tables are included.
• Normalisation: Modular workflow steps for normalisation are included.
• REST-API queries: Modular workflow steps for REST-API queries are included.

Scientific Applications:

• Metabolite annotation integration: Combining metabolite annotation tables from multiple analytical software sources into unified outputs.
• Annotation table preprocessing: Filtering, sorting, and organising metabolite annotation data for downstream analysis.

Methodology:

MetMashR implements workflow steps using S4 class templates derived from the struct package.
