python scripts/ClusterMSA.py EX -i initial_msa.a3m -o msas
Outputs a directory named msas
that contains
- msas/EX_000.a3m
- msas/EX_001.a3m
...
- msas/EX_REF.a3m
- msas/EX_U10-000.a3m
- msas/EX_U10-001.a3m
...
- msas/EX_U100-000.a3m
- msas/EX_U100-001.a3m
...
- msas/EX_REF.a3m
- msas/EX_clustering_assignments.tsv
-msas/EX_cluster_metadata.tsv
EX_000.a3m
, EX_001.a3m
... are the clusters identified by DBSCAN.
EX_U10-000.a3m, ... EX_U10-009.a3m
are uniformly sampled control MSAs of size 10 (Default is to generate 10).
EX_U100-000.a3m, ... EX_U100-009.a3m
are uniformly sampled control MSAs of size 100 (Default is to generate 10).
EX_REF.a3m
is a copy of the original MSA.
EX_clustering_assignments.tsv
contains a list of original sequences and the cluster index they were assigned to (-1 means they were not assigned).
EX_cluster_metadata.tsv
contains metadata corresponding to clusters.
To also perform PCA and/or tSNE embedding at the same time and save it in EX_clustering_assignments.tsv
for later analysis:
python scripts/ClusterMSA.py -i <my_alignment.a3m> -o <outdir> --run_PCA
or
python scripts/ClusterMSA.py -i <my_alignment.a3m> -o <outdir> --run_tSNE
