Build Status Documentation Status

A flexible gene expression simulator with codon-specific translation rates.

Requirements

Pinetree requires Python, CMake, and a modern C++ compiler. Python 3 is recommended.

Installation

To install the latest stable version of pinetree from PyPI, run the following:

pip3 install cmake  # CMake must be installed before installing pinetree
pip3 install pinetree 

The latest development build may be installed from GitHub as follows:

pip3 install cmake   
git clone https://github.com/benjaminjack/pinetree.git
cd pinetree
pip3 install .

Documentation

Full documentation is available here.

You may also build the documentation from the source code. Building the documentation requires sphinx.

Reproducing plots from manuscript

This repository contains scripts to reproduce the simulations and plots from the manuscript that describes Pinetree. R and the R packages cowplot, readr, dplyr, and stringr are required to generate plots. Run the following to reproduce the plots from the manuscript:

python3 ./examples/three_genes.py
python3 ./examples/three_genes_recoded.py
Rscript plots.R

To simulate a bacteriophage T7 infection, run the following script.

# WARNING: This simulation takes approximately 2-3 hours to complete
python3 ./examples/phage_model.py
