cdhit-reader 0.5.0

CD-HIT cluster parser

cdhit-parser

CD-HIT file reader.

Read CD-HIT .clstr file

Basic usage

from cdhit_reader import  read_cdhit
input = "cluster.fa.clstr"
for cluster in read_cdhit(input):
    print(f"{cluster.name} refSequence={cluster.refname} size={len(cluster)}")

    for member in cluster.sequences:
        print(f" {member.name} ({member.length}) identity={member.identity}% {'(Reference sequence)' if member.is_ref else ''}")

Load all clusters in to a list:

# Load all clusters to a list
clusters = read_cdhit(input).read_items()

Sequence to cluster lookup

Clustering loads a whole .clstr file and provides a reverse index (seqcluster) mapping each sequence name to the name of its cluster:

from cdhit_reader import Clustering

clustering = Clustering.from_file(input)

print(len(clustering))                      # number of clusters
for cluster in clustering:                  # iterate over the clusters
    print(cluster.name)

# Which cluster does a sequence belong to?
print(clustering.seqcluster["seq1.A"])      # e.g. "Cluster 0"

Read FASTA file

if os.path.exists(fileName):
    for seq in cdhit_reader.read_fasta(fileName, line_len=60):
        print(seq) # will be wrapped at 60 chars per line, use 0 to disable wrapping
        
        # to access individual attributes:
        # print(">" + seq.name + " " + seq.comment + "\n" + seq.sequence)

Install

pip install cdhit-reader

or via Miniconda, which will also install cd-hit

conda install -c bioconda -c conda-forge cdhit-reader

Demo applications

Cluster stats

The module ships a demo program called cdhit-reader.py.

Compare two fasta files

:warning: This requires cd-hit installed and available in the system path.

cdhit-compare allows to compare two fasta files and print the sequences that are in common, those which are only present in one of the files or those which are redundant.

Example:

cdhit-compare data/input1.faa data/input2.faa  --id 0.99

will produce:

input1  BJJOHBJ_00007
input2  BJJOHBJ_00007
input2  BJJOHBJ_00002
both    BJJOHBJ_00003:BJJOHBJ_00003
both    BJJOHBJ_00005:BJJOHBJ_00005
both    BJJOHBJ_00004:BJJOHBJ_00004
multi   input1#IBJJOHBJ_00006,input1#BBJJOHBJ_000B6,input1#CBJJOHBJ_000C6,input2#IBJJOHBJ_00006,input2#BBJJOHBJ_000B6,input2#CBJJOHBJ_000C6
dupl_input1     BJJOHBJ_00001:BJJOHBJ_000F

where records starting with file1 or file2 are only present in one of the files, records starting with both are present in both files (one per file), records starting with dupl are duplicates (two in one of the files), and records starting with multi are present multiple times in at least one of the datasets.
