Abstract
This review presents how R, the popular statistical environment and programming language, can be used in the frame of proteomics data analysis. A short introduction to R is given, with special emphasis on some of the features that make R and its add-on packages premium software for sound and reproducible data analysis. The reader is also advised on how to find relevant R software for proteomics. Several use cases are then presented, illustrating data input/output, quality control, quantitative proteomics and data analysis. Detailed code and additional links to extensive documentation are available in the freely available companion package RforProteomics. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Computational Proteomics in the Post-Identification Era. Guest Editors: Martin Eisenacher and Christian Stephan.
