Generating coevolution matrix

dyno_coevolution.py calls the hhblits, hhfilter, egrep to generate the sequence alignment (.aln file) from the Uniref database and ccmpred to generate the coevolution matrix (.mat file) from the alignment.

Options:

-I <standard fasta file. for sample file, check DyNoPy/test/001/1btl.fasta>

-n <number of threads to use. For CCMpred GPU is best. Code will check if GPU hardware is available and will decide to use either CPU or GPU for CCMpred

-d <Uniprot/Swiss prot protein sequence database label

Sample usage:

dyno_coevolution.py -i 1btl.fasta -n 12
