Scripts

df %>% gather(k,v, -Gene, -Peptide) %>% split(.$Gene) %>% map(~spread(.,Peptide, v)) %>% map(~select(.,-1:-2)%>% ggpairs(.))

Q1. How can I add protein name to the plots and save these plots separately in a folder?

Q2. How can put peptide comparisons (for each proteins) faceted and save?

Answer: @OP: Q1 and Q2:

For Q1 requirement: try this with code

p=df1 %>% gather(k,v, -Gene, -Peptide) %>% split(.$Gene) %>% map(~spread(.,Peptide, v)) %>% map(~select(.,1:ncol(.))%>%ggpairs(3:ncol(.), title = paste0("Protein: ",unique(.[,1]))))

for png (This would create 4 png files with gene/protein names as file name and each file will have the string "protein" and protein name in the data frame .. Change resolution as per requirement.):

for(i in 1:length(p)){
ggsave(plot = p[[i]], file = paste0(names(p)[i],".png"), dpi = 300)
}

For Q2: There is manual way, you can automate it.

library(cowplot)
plot_grid(
ggmatrix_gtable(p[[1]]),
ggmatrix_gtable(p[[2]]),
ggmatrix_gtable(p[[3]]),
ggmatrix_gtable(p[[4]]),
nrow = 2,
ncol=2
)
