**Spymot** is a comprehensive protein analysis platform that combines motif detection with 3D structure validation using AlphaFold2 confidence scores. Designed for cancer biology research, drug discovery, and functional genomics, Spymot provides deep insights into protein function through systematic analysis of short linear motifs (SLiMs) and targeting signals.
|
61
|
+
|
62
|
+
## 📦 **Python Package**
|
63
|
+
|
64
|
+
Spymot is now available as a **Python package** that can be installed via pip! This provides unified access to both V1 and V2 functionality through a single, easy-to-use interface.
|
65

|
82
|
+
|
83
|
+
## 🚀 Innovation
|
84
|
+
|
85
|
+
Moves beyond sequence-based detection to incorporate 3D structural context, enabling identification of discontinuous motifs and providing mechanistic insights into protein function and dysfunction.

## 🔬 Scientific Background
|
532
|
+
|
533
|
+
### AlphaFold Integration
|
534
|
+
Spymot uses the [AlphaFold Protein Structure Database](https://alphafold.ebi.ac.uk/) to assess 3D structural context:
|
535
|
+
|
536
|
+
- **pLDDT Scores**: Per-residue confidence from AlphaFold models
|
537
|
+
- **Threshold**: ≥70 pLDDT indicates reliable 3D structure
|
538
|
+
- **Coverage**: 200M+ protein structures from model organisms
|
539
|
+
|
540
|
+
### Confidence Scoring Integration
|
541
|
+
Spymot uses AlphaFold2 pLDDT scores to validate motif predictions:
|
542
|
+
- **pLDDT > 90**: Very high confidence - motif likely structured and functional
|
543
|
+
- **pLDDT 70-90**: Confident - motif probably functional with good structure
|
544
|
+
- **pLDDT 50-70**: Low confidence - motif may be disordered but still functional
|
545
|
+
- **pLDDT < 50**: Very low confidence - motif prediction uncertain
|
546
|
+
|
547
|
+
### Short Linear Motifs (SLiMs) in Cancer Biology
|
548
|
+
Short Linear Motifs are 3-10 amino acid sequences that mediate crucial protein functions:
|
549
|
+
|
550
|
+
#### Functional Classes
|
551
|
+
1. **Degrons**: Target proteins for degradation (APC/C, SCF complexes)
|
552
|
+
2. **Kinase Sites**: Phosphorylation targets (CDK, ATM/ATR, PKA)
|
553
|
+
3. **Interaction Motifs**: Protein binding sites (SH2, SH3, PDZ, 14-3-3)
|
554
|
+
4. **Localization Signals**: Subcellular targeting (NLS, NES, organellar signals)
|
555
|
+
|
556
|
+
#### Cancer Relevance
|
557
|
+
- **Tumor Suppressors**: p53 contains 15+ regulatory motifs
|
558
|
+
- **Oncoproteins**: Myc, β-catenin rely on motifs for function/regulation
|
559
|
+
- **Drug Targets**: Kinase sites are primary targets for cancer therapy
|
560
|
+
- **Biomarkers**: Motif mutations predict treatment response

646
|
+
git clone https://github.com/erfanzohrabi/spymot.git
|
647
|
+
cd spymot
|
648
|
+
|
649
|
+
# Choose version for development
|
650
|
+
cd V2 # or V1
|
651
|
+
|
652
|
+
# Create development environment
|
653
|
+
python -m venv spymot-dev
|
654
|
+
source spymot-dev/bin/activate
|
655
|
+
|
656
|
+
# Install development dependencies
|
657
|
+
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
658
|
+
pip install -e .
|
659
|
+
|
660
|
+
# Run tests
|
661
|
+
python test_enhanced_system.py # V2
|
662
|
+
# or
|
663
|
+
python test_system.py # V1
|
664
|
+
```
|
665
|
+
|
666
|
+
### Running Tests
|
667
|
+
```bash
|
668
|
+
# V2 Enhanced tests
|
669
|
+
cd V2
|
670
|
+
python -m pytest tests/ -v
|
671
|
+
python test_enhanced_system.py
|
672
|
+
|
673
|
+
# V1 Basic tests
|
674
|
+
cd V1
|
675
|
+
python -m pytest tests/ -v
|
676
|
+
python test_system.py
|
677
|
+
```
|
678
|
+
|
679
|
+
### Adding New Motifs
|
680
|
+
Add new motifs to the database by creating entries in the CSV files or updating the hardcoded motif lists. Each new motif should include:
|
681
|
+
|
682
|
+
- **Pattern**: Regular expression or consensus sequence
|
683
|
+
- **Biological Function**: Clear description of the motif's role
|
684
|
+
- **Cancer Relevance**: Assessment of oncological significance
|
685
|
+
- **Literature Support**: Reference to experimental validation
|
686
|
+
- **Context Requirements**: Position constraints (N-terminal, C-terminal, etc.)
