IDPEnsembleTools: An Open-Source Library for Analysis of Conformational Ensembles of Disordered Proteins

IDPEnsembleTools is a Python package designed to facilitate the loading, analysis, and comparison of multiple conformational ensembles of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs).

It supports various input formats such as .pdb, .xtc, and .dcd, and enables users to extract both global and local structural features, perform dimensionality reduction, and compute similarity scores between ensembles.

Pipeline Example


Documentation

Features

With IDPEnsembleTools, you can:

  • Extract global features of structural ensembles:

    • Radius of gyration (Rg)
    • Asphericity
    • Prolateness
    • End-to-end distance
  • Extract local features:

    • Interatomic distances
    • Phi–psi angles
    • Alpha-helix content
  • Perform dimensionality reduction on ensemble features:

    • PCA
    • UMAP
    • t-SNE
  • Compare structural ensembles using:

    • Jensen-Shannon (JS) divergence
    • Visualize similarity matrices

Example Notebooks

The notebooks/ directory contains a collection of Jupyter notebooks that demonstrate how to use the EnsembleTools package. These examples cover key functionalities such as ensemble comparison, dimensionality reduction (PCA, t-SNE, UMAP), feature extraction, and visualization customization. They serve both as tutorials and reproducible workflows for analyzing disordered protein ensembles.

Installation

It is recommended to install idpet in a clean virtual environment to avoid conflicts with existing packages.

🔹 Option 1: Using conda (if you use Anaconda/Miniconda)

```bash

Create and activate a new conda environment

conda create -n idpet-env python=3.9 conda activate idpet-env

Install the package from PyPI

pip install idpet ```

🔹 Option 2: Using venv (standard Python)

```bash

Create a new virtual environment (Python 3.7+)

python -m venv idpet-env

Activate the environment

On Linux/macOS:

source idpet-env/bin/activate

On Windows:

idpet-env\Scripts\activate

Upgrade pip and install the package

pip install --upgrade pip pip install idpet ```

Developer Installation (from source)

bash git clone https://github.com/BioComputingUP/EnsembleTools.git cd idpet pip install -e .
