leapR: An R Package for Multiomic Pathway Analysis
A generalized goal of many high-throughput data studies is to identify functional mecha-nisms that underlie observed biological phenomena, whether disease outcomes or metabolic out-put. Increasingly, studies that rely on multiple sources of high-throughput data (genomic, tran-scriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic) are faced with a challenge of utilizing the data in a way that maximizes utility. However, methods for integration of multiple forms of molecular data into a biolog-ically coherent frameworks are needed. Furthermore, we have developed a framework to assess biological pathway activity that relates to phenotypic outcome using multi-source data. Availability and implementation: The leapR package with user manual and example workflow is available for download from GitHub (https://github.com/biodataganache/leapR).
