DNA curvature analysis

======================



Dnacurve is a Python library, console script, and web application to calculate

the global 3D structure of a B-DNA molecule from its nucleotide sequence

according to the dinucleotide wedge model. Local bending angles and macroscopic

curvature are calculated at each nucleotide.

Quickstart

----------



Install the dnacurve package and all dependencies from the

`Python Package Index `_::



    python -m pip install -U "dnacurve[all]"



Print the console script usage::



    python -m dnacurve --help



Run the web application::



    python -m dnacurve --web



See `Examples`_ for using the programming interface.



Source code and support are available on

`GitHub `_.

Notes

-----



The algorithms, plots, and PDB format are not meant to be used with very

long sequences. By default, sequences are truncated to 510 nucleotides,

which can be overridden by the user.



The generated PDB files can be visualized interactively using

`UCSF Chimera `_.



Dnacurve.py was derived from DNACG.PAS (c) 1993, and DNACURVE.CPP (c) 1995.
