propy.PseudoAAC

Instead of using the conventional 20-D amino acid composition to represent the sample of a protein, Prof. Kuo-Chen Chou proposed the pseudo amino acid (PseAA) composition in order for inluding the sequence-order information. Based on the concept of Chou’s pseudo amino acid composition, the server PseAA was designed in a flexible way, allowing users to generate various kinds of pseudo amino acid composition for a given protein sequence by selecting different parameters and their combinations. This module aims at computing two types of PseAA descriptors: Type I and Type II.

propy.PseudoAAC.GetAAComposition(ProteinSequence: str) → Dict[Any, Any][source]

Calculate the composition of Amino acids for a given protein sequence.

Parameters:ProteinSequence (str) – a pure protein sequence
Returns:
Return type:result is a dict form containing the composition of 20 amino acids.

Examples

>>> from propy.GetProteinFromUniprot import GetProteinSequence
>>> protein = GetProteinSequence(ProteinID="Q9NQ39")
>>> result = GetAAComposition(protein)
propy.PseudoAAC.GetAPseudoAAC(ProteinSequence, lamda: int = 30, weight: float = 0.5)[source]

Computing all of type II pseudo-amino acid compostion descriptors based on the given properties. Note that the number of PAAC strongly depends on the lamda value. if lamda = 20, we can obtain 20+20=40 PAAC descriptors. The size of these values depends on the choice of lamda and weight simultaneously.

Parameters:
  • ProteinSequence (str) – a pure protein sequence
  • lamda (int) – reflects the rank of correlation and is a non-Negative integer, such as 15. Note that (1)lamda should NOT be larger than the length of input protein sequence; (2) lamda must be non-Negative integer, such as 0, 1, 2, …; (3) when lamda =0, the output of PseAA server is the 20-D amino acid composition.
  • weight (float) – is designed for the users to put weight on the additional PseAA components with respect to the conventional AA components. The user can select any value within the region from 0.05 to 0.7 for the weight factor.
Returns:

result – contains calculated 20+lamda PAAC descriptors

Return type:

Dict[Any, Any]

>>> from propy.GetProteinFromUniprot import GetProteinSequence
>>> protein = GetProteinSequence(ProteinID="Q9NQ39")
