autoBioSeqpy

autoBioSeqpy applies deep learning to classify biological sequences for tasks including prediction of Type III secreted proteins, protein subcellular localization, and CRISPR/Cas9 sgRNA activity.


Key Features:

  • Automated Workflow: Automates text reading, parameter initialization, sequence encoding, model loading, training, and evaluation.
  • Customizable Steps: Allows customization of modeling steps and workflows.
  • Model Templates: Includes ready-to-use and adaptable deep learning model templates.
  • Sequence Encoding: Implements sequence encoding methods for biological sequences.
  • Parameter Initialization: Provides parameter initialization for models.
  • Model Loading: Supports loading of pretrained or user-specified models.
  • Training: Supports training of deep learning architectures on sequence data.
  • Evaluation: Provides evaluation procedures for trained models.
  • Deep Learning Frameworks: Implements architectures using TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Keras.

Scientific Applications:

  • Prediction of Type III Secreted Proteins: Identifies proteins secreted via type III secretion systems.
  • Protein Subcellular Localization: Predicts the subcellular localization of proteins.
  • CRISPR/Cas9 sgRNA Activity Prediction: Predicts activity of single-guide RNAs (sgRNAs) in CRISPR/Cas9 systems.

Methodology:

Processes explicitly include text reading, parameter initialization, sequence encoding, model loading, training, and evaluation using deep learning architectures implemented with TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Keras.
