vCAPS: (verbose) Coevolution Analysis using Protein Sequences
CAPS is aimed at measuring the coevolution between amino acid sites
belonging to the same protein (intra-molecular coevolution) or to two
functionally or physically interacting proteins (inter-molecular
coevolution). The Software implements an improved method to detect
intra-molecular coevolution as published in Genetics (Fares and Travers,
2006) and also inter-protein coevolution analysis. The improved scoring
of amino acid sites is obtained by maximum likelihood ancestral state
reconstruction along with simulations to assess significance.
In addition, a test which assesses whether two proteins are interacting
is implemented.
NOTE:
This applies an _unofficial_ patch to enable more verbose output of the
program, including CAPS generated phylogenetic trees and p-values of the
pairwise results. The produced executable is called "vCAPS" and can be
installed along "caps" from CAPS_coevolution. Building CAPS from source
requires the Bio++ 1.9 suite, also available at SBo, which can be safely
installed along the current version. Fore details of the patch see pre-
print at bioRxiv by Petrov et al.:
