Prostar

Prostar is a software tool dedicated to the differential analysis of quantitative data resulting from discovery proteomics experiments.

Prostar is easy to install (see our Zero-install page), easy to use (thanks to its Shiny-based click-button interface) and well-documented (see our reference page). Moreover, it has been regularly updated along years to provide state-of-the-art data science methodologies.

Meet us at Winterberg for EuBICS Winter school! (https://eubic-ms.org/events/2024-winter-school/).

To download for the Prostar workshop:

  • Download the zero install version of Prostar (Windows only) Prostar 1.36.3 zip

  • Or run it through Docker with the following command:

    docker run -it -p 80:3838 ghcr.io/edyp-lab/prostar:1.38.1

    Then, access it by the following link : Prostar

  • Alternatively, if you have R already installed, Prostar can be installed and launched with the following commands:

    pkgs <- c('edyp-lab/DAPARdata', 'edyp-lab/DAPAR', 'edyp-lab/Prostar')
    install.packages('remotes')
    remotes::install_github(pkgs, dependencies = TRUE, ref = RELEASE_3_20)
    Prostar::Prostar()

It takes about 10 minutes to install Prostar and it dependencies from a new R installation

  • Several datasets will be used, they can be downloaded here.
