Immport Wiki

Data Source

Immport

Immport is a site offering multiple types of data sets that can be downloaded on the website, including gene expression data, antibody data, cytokine data, etc. This is also supplemented by the ImmuneSpace site that actively formats these datasets.

ImmuneSpaceR

ImmuneSpaceR is a thin wrapper around Rlabkey to access the ImmuneSpace database from R. ImmuneSpace provides a set of standardized modules to explore datasets, and perform specific analyses. We can use the ImmuneSpaceR package to get this information from with R itself. Some setup is required to do this.

Data Storage

Google SDK

Owing to the large volume of datasets, we set a Google SDK to store our dataset and regularly updated.

Docker image

we create a docker image to test out hiconet analysis on our data. Considering hiconet is currently under development and in a private repo, docker image is a virtual machine which we optimize the environment to best fit our needs. We can get access to it anywhere (your laptop, a desktop, an Amazon or Google instance) with totally free service.
