Protein & Interactomic Graph Library

This package provides functionality for producing geometric representations of protein and RNA structures, and biological interaction networks. We provide compatibility with standard PyData formats, as well as graph objects designed for ease of use with popular deep learning libraries.

Example usage

Graphein provides both a programmatic API and a command-line interface for constructing graphs.

CLI

Graphein configs can be specified as .yaml files to batch process graphs from the commandline.

Installation

Pip

The simplest install is via pip. N.B this does not install ML/DL libraries which are required for conversion to their data formats and for generating protein structure meshes with PyTorch 3D. Further details

pip install graphein # For base install
pip install graphein[extras] # For additional featurisation dependencies
pip install graphein[dev] # For dev dependencies
pip install graphein[all] # To get the lot

However, there are a number of (optional) utilities (DSSP, PyMol, GetContacts) that are not available via PyPI:

conda install -c salilab dssp # Required for computing secondary structural features
conda install -c schrodinger pymol # Required for PyMol visualisations & mesh generation

# GetContacts - used as an alternative way to compute intramolecular interactions
conda install -c conda-forge vmd-python
git clone https://github.com/getcontacts/getcontacts

# Add folder to PATH
echo "export PATH=\$PATH:`pwd`/getcontacts" >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
To test the installation, run:

cd getcontacts/example/5xnd
get_dynamic_contacts.py --topology 5xnd_topology.pdb \
                        --trajectory 5xnd_trajectory.dcd \
                        --itypes hb \
                        --output 5xnd_hbonds.tsv

Conda environment

The dev environment includes GPU Builds (CUDA 11.1) for each of the deep learning libraries integrated into graphein.

git clone https://www.github.com/a-r-j/graphein
cd graphein
conda env create -f environment-dev.yml
pip install -e .

A lighter install can be performed with:

git clone https://www.github.com/a-r-j/graphein
cd graphein
conda env create -f environment.yml
pip install -e .

Dockerfile

We provide two docker-compose files for CPU (docker-compose.cpu.yml) and GPU usage (docker-compose.yml) locally. For GPU usage please ensure that you have NVIDIA Container Toolkit installed. Ensure that you install the locally mounted volume after entering the container (pip install -e .). This will also setup the dev environment locally.

To build (GPU) run:

docker-compose up -d --build # start the container
docker-compose down # stop the container
