AmberMDrun

Easy to use, easy to expand, high-performance Amber simulation package

Update

v0.0.5 Added support for multiple ligands.

Install

This software only supports Linux because some Linux system functions are called.Mac OS X and Windows are not supported.

Necessary

Ambertools, python3, and python3-dev are required. Amber acceleration package is optional, but we strongly recommend installing high-performance pmemd module. Amber

You can refer to the Amber installation tutorial to install Amber.

Then, you can choose several installation methods.

1. Anaconda(recommend)

conda install ambermdrun -c zjack

2. PYPI PYPI installation requires a c++compiler that supports the c++17 standard. GCC-8 does not fully support the file system in the c++17 standard, so GCC-9 or higher is required. Therefore, different systems have different processing methods, and we recommend using conda for installation.

Ubuntu >= 20

apt install g++ libpython3-dev
pip install AmberMDrun

centos7 We recommend Red Hat Developer Toolset for higher version of gcc.

yum update
yum install epel-release
yum install centos-release-scl-rh
yum install devtoolset-9
source /opt/rh/devtoolset-9/enable # enable gcc-9
yum install python3-devel
pip install AmberMDrun

3. You can also choose to build from source code.

git clone https://github.com/9527567/AmberMD --recursive
python setup.py install --user

Optional

If you want to use AmberMDrun to calculate MMPB (GB) SA, then additional programs are necessary.

• ACPYPE
• gmx_MMPBSA

Typically, the complex structure after molecular docking is used to perform MMPBSA calculations.Therefore, we have provided a short code to handle the pdb format of the complex. Therefore, when your complex structure is docked and the ligand is in the desired initial position, you can directly provide the pdb format file of the complex.The following is an example.It should be noted that we will not actively assist you in handling the hydrogen atom of the ligand. We need you to ensure that the hydrogen of the ligand is correct.

mmpbsa -p complex.pdb

V0.0.5 added support for multiple ligands

Just follow the files of multiple ligands after -m, and add an option -g to guess the static charge of small molecules, or manually specify the static charge, for example:

mmpbsa -p pro.pdb -m lig1.mol2 lig2.mol2 -g -n 100

How to extend code through inheritance classes

Will be described in the near future

abstract = {Taste peptides with umami/bitterness play a role in food attributes. However, the taste mechanisms of peptides are not fully understood, and the identification of these peptides is time-consuming. Here, we created a taste peptide database by collecting the reported taste peptide information. Eight key molecular descriptors from di/tri-peptides were selected and obtained by modeling screening. A gradient boosting decision tree model named Umami_YYDS (89.6\% accuracy) was established by data enhancement, comparison algorithm and model optimization. Our model showed a great prediction performance compared to other models, and its outstanding ability was verified by sensory experiments. To provide a convenient approach, we deployed a prediction website based on Umami_YYDS and uploaded the Auto_Taste_ML machine learning package. In summary, we established the system TastePeptides-Meta, containing a taste peptide database TastePeptidesDB an umami/bitter taste prediction model Umami_YYDS and an open-source machine learning package Auto_Taste_ML, which were helpful for rapid screening of umami peptides.}
