vCAPS: (verbose) Coevolution Analysis using Protein Sequences
|
|
|
|
CAPS is aimed at measuring the coevolution between amino acid sites
|
|
belonging to the same protein (intra-molecular coevolution) or to two
|
|
functionally or physically interacting proteins (inter-molecular
|
|
coevolution). The Software implements an improved method to detect
|
|
intra-molecular coevolution as published in Genetics (Fares and Travers,
|
|
2006) and also inter-protein coevolution analysis. The improved scoring
|
|
of amino acid sites is obtained by maximum likelihood ancestral state
|
|
reconstruction along with simulations to assess significance.
|
|
|
|
In addition, a test which assesses whether two proteins are interacting
|
|
is implemented.
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
This applies an _unofficial_ patch to enable more verbose output of the
|
|
program, including CAPS generated phylogenetic trees and p-values of the
|
|
pairwise results. The produced executable is called "vCAPS" and can be
|
|
installed along "caps" from CAPS_coevolution. Building CAPS from source
|
|
requires the Bio++ 1.9 suite, also available at SBo, which can be safely
|
|
installed along the current version. Fore details of the patch see pre-
|
|
print at bioRxiv by Petrov et al.:
