PBxplore is a suite of tools dedicated to Protein Block (PB) analysis. Protein Blocks are structural prototypes defined by de Brevern et al. The 3-dimensional local structure of a protein backbone can be modelized as an 1-dimensional sequence of PBs. In principle, any conformation of any amino acid could be represented by one of the sixteen available Protein Blocks (see Figure 1).

PBxplore provides both a Python library and command-line tools. Basically, PBxplore can:
assign PBs from a single PDB, many PDBs or a molecular dynamics simulation trajectory.
use analysis tools to perform statistical analysis on PBs.
use analysis tools to study protein flexibility and deformability.
Requirements
PBxplore requires:
Python 3.x (>= 3.6)
Python modules: NumPy, Matplotlib, MDAnalysis (version >= 0.11).
Optionally, PBxplore can use:
WebLogo 3 to create logo from PB sequences.
Installation
Once dependencies installed, the most straightforward way is to use pip:
$ pip install pbxplorePBxplore can also be installed for the current user only:
$ pip install --user pbxploreDocumentation
