Dmppred: A tool for predicting, designing, and scanning Type 1 associated peptides
Project description
DMPPred Pip package
A computational approach to predict the Type 1 diabetes mellitus causing peptides using the sequence information.
Introduction
DMPPred is developed to predict, scan, and, design the Type 1 diabetes mellitus causing peptides using sequence information only. In the standalone version, extra-tree classifier based model is implemented alongwith the BLAST search, named it as hybrid approach. DMPPred is also available as web-server at https://webs.iiitd.edu.in/raghava/dmppred. Please read/cite the content about the DMPPred for complete information including algorithm behind the approach.
Standalone
The Standalone version of transfacpred is written in python3 and following libraries are necessary for the successful run:
- scikit-learn
- Pandas
- Numpy
- blastp
Minimum USAGE
To know about the available option for the stanadlone, type the following command:
pip install dmppred
To run the example, type the following command:
dmppred -i example_input.fa
This will predict if the submitted sequences can cause diabetes or not. It will use other parameters by default. It will save the output in "outfile.csv" in CSV (comma seperated variables).
Full Usage
usage: dmppred [-h]
[-i INPUT
[-o OUTPUT]
[-j {1,2,3}]
[-t THRESHOLD]
[-w {8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30}]
[-d {1,2}]
Please provide following arguments for successful run
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-i INPUT, --input INPUT
Input: protein or peptide sequence(s) in FASTA format
or single sequence per line in single letter code
-o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
Output: File for saving results by default outfile.csv
-j {1,2,3}, --job {1,2,3}
Job Type: 1:Predict, 2: Design, 3:Scan, by default 1
-t THRESHOLD, --threshold THRESHOLD
Threshold: Value between 0 to 1 by default 0.16
-w {8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30}, --winleng {8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30}
Window Length: 8 to 30 (scan mode only), by default 9
-d {1,2}, --display {1,2}
Display: 1:Diabetic peptides only, 2: All peptides, by default 1
Input File: It allow users to provide input in the FASTA format.
Output File: Program will save the results in the CSV format, in case user do not provide output file name, it will be stored in "outfile.csv".
Threshold: User should provide threshold between 0 and 1, by default its 0.58.
Job: User is allowed to choose between three different modules, such as, 1 for prediction, 2 for Designing and 3 for scanning, by default its 1.
Window length: User can choose any pattern length between 8 and 30 in long sequences. This option is available for only scanning module.
Display type: This option allow users to fetch either only diabetis causing peptides by choosing option 1 or prediction against all peptides by choosing option 2.
