R Interface to the ProteomeXchange Repository

Thre rpx package is a simple programmatic interface to proteomics data available in the ProteomeXchange repository. It uses a ProteomeXchange identifier such as PXD000001 to find and download files associated with that project. The official Bioconductor is here. The GitHub page allows to browse the documentation and the vignette.
