H1 Aggregation Level

Aggregation Level

The Aggregation Level popover in the header controls which assay from the QFeatures object is used across all analysis tabs. Click the Aggregation Level button in the top-right header to access this control.

Choose QFeatures Assay

Select the assay you want to analyze. The available assays depend on the data in your conduit.rds file, but typically include:

Assay	Description
precursor	Raw precursor-level quantifications
peptide	Peptide-level aggregations
protein_groups	Protein group-level aggregations (default)
domain	Taxonomic aggregation at the domain level
kingdom	Taxonomic aggregation at the kingdom level
phylum	Taxonomic aggregation at the phylum level
class	Taxonomic aggregation at the class level
order	Taxonomic aggregation at the order level
family	Taxonomic aggregation at the family level
genus	Taxonomic aggregation at the genus level
species	Taxonomic aggregation at the species level
go	GO term-level aggregations
kegg	KEGG pathway-level aggregations

Switching the aggregation level changes the data displayed across all QC plots, PCA, heatmaps, statistics, and other analysis sub-tabs. This makes it easy to explore your data at multiple levels of biological resolution without any additional processing steps.
