Domain Analyzer

created 2023 by gaenssle written in Python 3.8

Process

• The input is an ID, e.g. domain name (PFAM or UniProt ID)
• Various databases are accessed via Genome.jp, e.g. KEGG or UnitProt
• All available protein data associated with the input ID are downloaded
• The downloaded data is extracted, accumulated and counted
• Various output files are generated, including FASTA

---

Data

• Downloaded sequence data:
  • Assigned description
  • Organism and taxonomy
  • Sequence
  • Domain architecture
  • Available IDs from other databases
• Count:

• Taxonomy (Phylum and organism)
• Domain architecture

• Save data in the following files:
  • Gene IDs
  • Gene details (organism, architecture, sequence, etc)
  • Summary domain architecture
  • Summary of taxonomic distribution
  • Fasta files (containing entire sequence)
  • Fasta files (only containing the target domain sequence)

---

Dependencies

• The program used python 3.8 and the following modules:
  • pandas
  • argparse
  • multiprocessing (optional for Linux)

  -a ACTION, --action ACTION
                        add actions to be conducted: a=all, i=entry IDs,
                        d=protein data, m=KEGG motif, e=extract (default: a)
  -st SEARCHTYPE, --searchtype SEARCHTYPE
                        type of the searched id (default: pf)
  -c CUTOFF, --cutoff CUTOFF

  -sam SAMPLESIZE, --samplesize SAMPLESIZE
                        max number of downloaded entries (default: 0)
  -f FOLDER, --folder FOLDER
                        name of the parent folder (default: same as 'name')
  -cs CLUSTERSIZE, --clustersize CLUSTERSIZE
                        entries/frament files (default: 100)
  -ft FILETYPE, --filetype FILETYPE
                        type of the generated files (default: .csv)
  -sep SEPARATOR, --separator SEPARATOR
                        separator between columns in the output files
                        (default: ;)
