About

This is the landing page of Conduit-Summit. It contains the app logo, a brief overview of the Conduit ecosystem, and the file upload interface.

Most analysis tabs (AI, Database, DIA-NN QC, View Metadata, Filter Data, View Assay, Analysis, Traverse) are disabled until data is uploaded. Once a file is loaded, all tabs become active.

File Upload

Upload your conduit.rds file here using the drag-and-drop area or the file browser. The maximum supported file size is 500 MB.

The conduit.rds file is a Conduit object as defined in the conduitR package. It is an S4 R object created by the Conduit-Ascent Snakemake workflow and contains:

  • A QFeatures object with multiple assay levels (precursors, peptides, protein groups, and taxonomic/functional aggregations)
  • Sample metadata (colData) describing the experimental design
  • Feature metadata (rowData) with protein annotations, taxonomic assignments, GO terms, and KEGG pathways
  • DIA-NN search metrics
  • Per-species protein coverage statistics

After upload, a dialog will confirm the data was loaded successfully and display the default processing settings (log base, imputation method, normalization).

Workflow Overview

The About tab also displays a summary of the recommended analysis workflow, walking through the key steps from data upload to publication-quality figures.
