motif conservation in IDRs through pairwise k-mer alignment

This work was supported by the National Institutes of Health under Award Number R35GM149227. The content is solely the responsibility of the authors and does not necessarily represent the official views of the National Institutes of Health.

Features

Quantify the relative conservation of a small sequence motif in intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of proteins, without the need for a multiple sequence alignment (MSA).

See the demo/tutorial jupyter notebook here: demo/pairk_tutorial.ipynb

Installation

pip install pairk

or for an editable install that you can modify:

git clone https://github.com/jacksonh1/pairk.git
cd pairk
pip install -e .

virtual environment installation:

We suggest using a virtual environment to install pairk, such as conda or venv. You can create a new environment and just install pairk as above, or you can use the provided environment.yml file to create a new environment with the necessary dependencies like so:

git clone https://github.com/jacksonh1/pairk.git
cd pairk
conda env create -f=environment.yml

Then activate the environment with:

conda activate pairk

and install pairk with either:

pip install .

or for an editable install that you can modify:

pip install -e .
