About

This package provides plotting functions for protein structures, multiple sequence alignments, and some other related plots like protein structure contact maps. It also provides more complicated examples that show off additional functionality and interfaces. The main plotting functions are plotstruc and plotmsa, along with their mutating versions, plotstruc! and plotmsa!.

Implemented packages:

Significant or full coverage:

  • BioStructures.jl
  • MIToS.jl
  • FastaIO.jl
  • FASTX.jl

Some coverage:

  • MolecularGraph.jl
  • ProtoSyn.jl

Implemented visualizations:

  • Structures
    • Ball and stick, spacefilling, covalent representations
    • Selections
    • Alpha shapes
  • Multiple sequence alignments
    • Grid display
    • Selections
    • Frequency plot
  • Data acquisition and GPT-3.5-turbo API
  • Mutating structural residues with ProtoSyn

To Do:

  • Non-standard and modified amino acids
  • Connect MSA and structure plot
  • Protein dynamics
  • Better support for ligands and multiple chains
  • Database web API interfaces
  • WGLMakie support
  • More examples

You should add a link to the package and docs :wink:

Seriously, amazing work!

I forget the most obvious things sometimes, thanks!
