CBTope2: A tool for predicting interactivity of B-cell epitopes

CBTOPE2: Prediction of interactivity of antigens in protein sequence

This repository contains the standalone code for CBTOPE2 prediction tool. CBTOPE2 is an antibody interacting residues predictor. To support the scientific community, we have developed a standalone software and web server for the tool. For a user-friendly access to CBTOPE2, please use https://webs.iiitd.edu.in/raghava/cbtope2/.

Installation (dependencies)

1. Standalone

Download standalone zip file from https://webs.iiitd.edu.in/raghava/cbtope2/standalone.html

1. Unzip the zip file you just downloaded

2. pip install Bio joblib sklearn openpyxl
   

3. Execute:

   python standalone.py [-i INPUT] [filename.fasta] [-t probability threshold = 0.5] [-m {1,2}]
   

   Optional arguments:

• -i INPUT, --input INPUT
  Input: Protein or peptide sequence(s) in FASTA format or a single sequence per line in single-letter code.
  Input File: Allows users to provide input in FASTA format.

• -t THRESHOLD, --threshold THRESHOLD
  Threshold: Value between 0 to 1 (default is 0.5).
  Threshold: User should provide a threshold between 0 and 1; by default, it is 0.5.

• -m {1,2}, --model {1,2}
  Model Type:
  1: PSSM-based model
  2: RSA + PSSM ensemble model (Best Model).
  Model: User can choose between two models: 1 for PSSM-based, and 2 for RSA + PSSM ensemble.
