# ProLIF
Protein-Ligand Interaction Fingerprints

:warning: This project is under development, do not use it in the current state :warning:

## :small_blue_diamond: Description

ProLIF is a tool designed to generate Interaction FingerPrints (IFP) and compute similarity scores for protein-ligand interactions, given a reference ligand and a list of binding-site residues.

## :small_blue_diamond: Installation

ProLIF is written in Python 3, and uses the following non-standard libraries:
* [rdkit](http://www.rdkit.org/docs/Install.html)

To install rdkit with Anaconda, use the following command:
```
conda install -c rdkit rdkit
```

## :small_blue_diamond: Usage

```
INPUT arguments:
-r fileName, --reference fileName
Path to your reference ligand.
-l fileName [fileName ...], --ligand fileName [fileName ...]
Path to your ligand(s).
-p fileName, --protein fileName
Path to your protein.
--residues RESIDUES [RESIDUES ...]
Residues chosen for the interactions. Default: automatically detect residues within --cutoff of the reference ligand
--cutoff float Cutoff for automatic residue detection. Default: 5.0 angströms
--json fileName Path to a custom parameters file. Default: prolif.json

OUTPUT arguments:
-o filename, --output filename
Path to the output CSV file
-v, --verbose Increase terminal output verbosity

Other arguments:
--interactions bit [bit ...]
List of interactions used to build the fingerprint.
-) hydrogen bond: HBdonor, HBacceptor
-) halogen bond: XBdonor
-) ionic: cation, anion
-) pi-stacking: FaceToFace, FaceToEdge
-) hydrophobic
-) pi-cation
-) metal
Default: HBdonor HBacceptor cation anion FaceToFace FaceToEdge pi-cation hydrophobic
--score {tanimoto,dice,tversky}
Similarity score between molecule A and B :
Let 'a' and 'b' be the number of bits activated in molecules A and B, and 'c' the number of activated bits in common.
-) tanimoto : c/(a+b-c). Used by default
-) dice : 2c/(a+b)
-) tversky : c/(alpha*(a-c)+beta*(b-c)+c)
--alpha int Alpha parameter for Tversky. Default: 0.7
--beta int Beta parameter for Tversky. Default: 0.3

Mandatory arguments: --reference --ligand --protein
MOL2 files only.
