The pdb-tools are a collection of Python scripts for working with molecular structure data in the PDB format. They allow users to edit, convert, and validate PDB files, from the command-line, in a simple but efficient manner. The pdb-tools are implemented in Python, without any external dependencies, and are freely…

Computational Pathology (CPath) has seen rapid growth in recent years, driven by advanced deep learning (DL) algorithms. These algorithms typically share the same sequence of steps. However, due to the sheer size and complexity of handling large multi-gigapixel whole-slide images, there is no open-source software…

We previously developed the CellPhe toolkit^1^, an open-source R package for automated cell phenotyping from ptychography time-lapse videos. To align with the growing adoption of python-based image analysis tools and to enhance interoperability with widely used software for cell segmentation and tracking, we developed…

Virtual screening using molecular docking is now routinely used for the rapid evaluation of very large ligand libraries. As such, it has become an increasingly common approach in early-stage drug discovery. These screenings generate large amounts of data proportional to the size of the compound library used, which must…

In this article, we present Tellurium, a powerful Python-based integrated environment designed for model building, analysis, simulation and reproducibility in systems and synthetic biology. Tellurium is a modular, cross-platform, and open-source integrated development environment (IDE) composed of multiple libraries…

Raman spectroscopy is a non-destructive and label-free chemical analysis technique, which plays a key role in the analysis and discovery cycle of various branches of science. Nonetheless, progress in Raman spectroscopic analysis is still impeded by the lack of software, methodological and data standardisation, and the…

With the rapid growth of chemical data and information, there is an increasing need for chemistry undergraduates to master Python tools for analyzing large chemical datasets and extracting key or feature information. Currently, more than 100,000 types of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), as the material recently awarded…

Python is a popular and widespread programming language for scientific computing, in large part due to the powerful array programming library NumPy, which makes it easy to write clean, vectorized and efficient code for handling large datasets. A challenge with using array programming for biological data is that the…

In chemistry, analyzing spectra through peak fitting is a crucial task that helps scientists extract useful quantitative information about a sample's chemical composition or electronic structure. To make this process more efficient, we have developed a new open-source software tool called SpectraFit. This tool allows…

Biological Pathway Exchange (BioPAX) is a standard language, represented in OWL, that aims to enable the integration, exchange, visualization and analysis of biological pathway data. While public databanks increasingly provide datasets in BioPAX format, their use remains below potential. Users may encounter challenges…

The rapid development of high-throughput sequencing (HTS) techniques has led biology into the big-data era. Data analyses using various bioinformatics tools rely on programming and command-line environments, which are challenging and time-consuming for most wet-lab biologists. Here, we present TBtools (a Toolkit for…

Motivation: Experimental structural data can allow detailed insight into protein structure and protein-ligand interactions, which is crucial for many areas of bioscience, including drug design and enzyme engineering. Typically, however, little more than a static picture of protein-ligand interactions is obtained…

X-ray crystallography allows detailed insight into protein structure and protein-ligand interactions, which is crucial for many areas of bioscience, including drug design and enzyme engineering. However, crystal structures provide little more than a static picture of proteinligand interactions, whereas dynamical…

SEEKR2 (Simulation enabled estimation of kinetic rates v. 2) is a powerful and versatile software tool designed to computationally estimate the kinetics and thermodynamics of complex molecular processes, particularly emphasizing the process of receptor-ligand binding and unbinding. We present a suite of tutorials for…
