RF2NA

GitHub repo for RoseTTAFold2 with nucleic acids

New: April 13, 2023 v0.2

Updated weights (https://files.ipd.uw.edu/dimaio/RF2NA_apr23.tgz) for better prediction of homodimer:DNA interactions and better DNA-specific sequence recognition
Bugfixes in MSA generation pipeline
Support for paired protein/RNA MSAs

Installation

Clone the package

git clone https://github.com/uw-ipd/RoseTTAFold2NA.git
cd RoseTTAFold2NA

Create conda environment All external dependencies are contained in RF2na-linux.yml

# create conda environment for RoseTTAFold2NA
conda env create -f RF2na-linux.yml

You also need to install NVIDIA's SE(3)-Transformer (please use SE3Transformer in this repo to install).

conda activate RF2NA
cd SE3Transformer
pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt
python setup.py install
cd ..

Download pre-trained weights under network directory

cd network
wget https://files.ipd.uw.edu/dimaio/RF2NA_apr23.tgz
tar xvfz RF2NA_apr23.tgz
ls weights/ # it should contain a 1.1GB weights file
cd ..

Usage

conda activate RF2NA
cd example
# run Protein/RNA prediction
../run_RF2NA.sh rna_pred rna_binding_protein.fa R:RNA.fa
# run Protein/DNA prediction
../run_RF2NA.sh dna_pred dna_binding_protein.fa D:DNA.fa

Inputs

The first argument to the script is the output folder
The remaining arguments are fasta files for individual chains in the structure. Use the tags P:xxx.fa R:xxx.fa D:xxx.fa S:xxx.fa to specify protein, RNA, double-stranded DNA, and single-stranded DNA, respectively. Use the tag PR:xxx.fa to specify paired protein/RNA. Each chain is a separate file; 'D' will automatically generate a complementary DNA strand to the input strand.

Expected outputs

Outputs are written to the folder provided as the first argument (dna_pred and rna_pred).
Model outputs are placed in a subfolder, models (e.g., dna_pred.models)
You will get a predicted structre with estimated per-residue LDDT in the B-factor column (models/model_00.pdb)
You will get a numpy .npz file (models/model_00.npz). This can be read with numpy.load and contains three tables (L=complex length):
- dist (L x L x 37) - the predicted distogram
- lddt (L) - the per-residue predicted lddt
- pae (L x L) - the per-residue pair predicted error
