pyProtein

pyProtein does basic calculations on polypeptides/ proteins/enzymes, e.g. the isoelectric point similar to e.g. the "ExPASy Compute pI/Mw tool". Methods are contained in class protein. Is intended to be included into scripts for automated calculations.

Currently only calculations for compounds with amino acid residues (proteins/ enzymes/polypeptides) are supported:

• Input as amino acid abundance or amino acid sequence.
• Currently contains pK_a tables from three sources for IEP and charge calculation.
• Calculates charge states of proteins depending on pH values.

For imformation on how to use it:

• See docstrings.
• Or look at how the tests are done in the tests folder.

Requirements

Requirements are listed in the requirements.txt file. Please also click on the Travis CI badge to find further details on tested conditions.

Installation

pyProtein is part of PyPI, so install with:
