Python Interface for Residue-Residue Contact Predictions

A Python Interface to Contact Predictions

This project is a result of the continuous struggle using residue-residue contact prediction pipelines, visualisation tools and related software. The aim was to reduce this complexity and provide one unified interface as a basic platform. The resulting interface is the Contact Prediction ToolKit, or ConKit.

Key Features

• Parsers for Multiple Sequence Alignment and contact prediction files

• Analysis functions for Multiple Sequence Alignment and contact prediction data

• Visualisation of Multiple Sequence Alignment and contact prediction data

• Easy-to-use Python wrappers for the contact prediction related software

Note

ConKit was presented at the CCP4 Study Weekend 2017. A recording of the presentation is available on YouTube.

Installation & Usage

Please refer to ConKit’s documentation.
