bio-plasmoap¶ ↑

PlasmoAP is a program for predicting apicoplast targetting sequences in Plasmodium falciparum (the most fatal causative agent of malaria). This biogem implements the PlasmoAP algorithm, designed from the PlasmoAP journal article:

Dissecting apicoplast targeting in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum.
Foth BJ, Ralph SA, Tonkin CJ, Struck NS, Fraunholz M, Roos DS, Cowman AF, McFadden GI.
Science. 2003 Jan 31;299(5607):705-8.
PMID: 12560551

PlasmoAP requires the bio-signalp BioRuby plugin to be installed and therefore SignalP itself. See github.com/wwood/bioruby-signalp for more details.

Specifically, it requires version 3 of SignalP.

Installation and usage¶ ↑

To install:

gem install bio-plasmoap

To use:

plasmoap.rb /path/to/proteins.fasta
