The Hotspots API is the Python package for the Fragment Hotspot Maps project,
a knowledge-based method for determining small molecule binding "hotspots".

For more information on this method:

[Radoux, C.J. et. al., Identifying the Interactions that Determine Fragment Binding at Protein Hotspots J. Med. Chem. 2016, 59 (9), 4314-4325](dx.doi.org/10.1021/acs.jmedchem.5b01980)

Getting Started
===============

Although the Hotspots API is publicly available, it is dependant on the CSD
Python API - a commercial package.

If you are an academic user, it's likely your institution will have a license.
If you are unsure if you have a license or would like to enquire about
purchasing one, please contact support@ccdc.cam.ac.uk.

Please note, this is an academic project and we would therefore welcome
feedback, contributions and collaborations. If you have any queries regarding
this package please contact us (pcurran@ccdc.cam.ac.uk)!


Installation
============


1 Install CSDS 2019
----------------------

The CSDS is available from [here](https://www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/support-and-resources/csdsdownloads/).

You will need a valid site number and confirmation code, this will have been
emailed to you when you bought your CSDS 2019 license.


2 Install GHECOM
-------------------

Ghecom is available from [here](http://strcomp.protein.osaka-u.ac.jp/ghecom/download_src.html).

"The source code of the GHECOM is written in C, and developed and executed on
the linux environment (actually on the Fedora Core).  For the installation,
you need the gcc compiler.  If you do not want to use it, please change the
"Makefile" in the "src" directory."

Download the file ``ghecom-src-[date].tar.gz`` file.

    tar zxvf ghecom-src-[date].tar.gz
    cd src
    make

NB: The executable will be located at the parent directory.


3 Create conda environment (recommended)
------------------------------------------------

    conda create -n hotspots python=2.7

4 Create Install RDKit and CSD Python API
------------------------------------------------		

Install RDKit:	

 	conda install -n hotspots -c rdkit rdkit

The latest standalone CSD-Python-API installer from is available [here](https://www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/forum/csd_python_api/General/06004d0d-0bec-e811-a889-005056977c87).

Install the Python CSD API:

     unzip csd-python-api-2.1.0-linux-64-py2.7-conda
     conda install -n hotspots -c <path to ccdc_conda_channel> csd-python-api

 5 Install Hotspots		
------------------------------------------------		

Install Hotspots v1.x.x:

a) Latest stable release (recommended for most users):

    conda activate hotspots

    pip install hotspots
    or 
    pip install https://github.com/prcurran/hotspots/archive/v1.x.x.zip

b) Very latest code

    mkdir ./hotspots_code
    git clone git@github.com:prcurran/hotspots.git
    conda activate hotspots
    cd hotspots_code
    pip install hotspots_code

 NB: dependencies should install automatically. If they do not, please see setup.py for the package requirements!


## Hotspots API Usage
---------------------

Start activating your Anaconda environment and setting some variables.

    conda activate hotspots
    export GHECOM_EXE=<path_to_GHECOM_executable>
    export CSDHOME=<path_to_CSDS_installation>/CSD_2019


## Running a Calculation
---------------------

### Protein Preparation

The first step is to make sure your protein is correctly prepared for the
calculation. The structures should be protonated with small molecules and
waters removed. Any waters or small molecules left in the structure will
be included in the calculation.

One way to do this is to use the CSD Python API:


    from ccdc.protein import Protein

    prot = Protein.from_file('protein.pdb')
    prot.remove_all_waters()
    prot.add_hydrogens()
    for l in prot.ligands:
        prot.remove_ligand(l.identifier)


For best results, manually check proteins before submitting them for calculation.


### Calculating Fragment Hotspot Maps
---------------------


Once the protein is prepared, the `hotspots.calculation.Runner` object can be
used to perform the calculation:


    from hotspots.calculation import Runner

    runner = Runner()
    # Only SuperStar jobs are parallelised (one job per processor). By default there are 3 jobs, when calculating charged interactions there are 5.
    results = runner.from_pdb(prot, nprocesses=3)


Alternatively, for a quick calculation, you can supply a PDB code and we will
prepare the protein as described above:

    runner = Runner()
    results = runner.from_pdb("1hcl", nprocesses=3)


## Reading and Writing Hotspots
----------------------------

### Writing

The  `hotspots.hs_io` module handles the reading and writing of both  `hotspots.calculation.results`
and  `hotspots.best_volume.Extractor` objects. The output `.grd` files can become quite large,
but are highly compressible, therefore the results are written to a `.zip` archive by default,
along with a PyMOL run script to visualise the output.


    from hotspots.hs_io import HotspotWriter

    out_dir = "results/pdb1"

    # Creates "results/pdb1/out.zip"
    with HotspotWriter(out_dir) as writer:
        writer.write(results)

### Reading


If you want to revisit the results of a previous calculation, you can load the
`out.zip` archive directly into a `hotspots.calculation.results` instance:


    from hotspots.hs_io import HotspotReader

    results = HotspotReader('results/pdb1/out.zip').read()



## Using the Output
---------------------

While Fragment Hotspot Maps provide a useful visual guide, the grid-based data
can be used in other SBDD analysis.

### Scoring
---------------------

One example is scoring atoms of either proteins or small molecules.

This can be done as follows: 

    from ccdc.protein import Protein
    from ccdc.io import MoleculeReader, MoleculeWriter
    from hotspots.calculation import Runner

	r = Runner()
	prot = Protein.from_file("1hcl.pdb")    # prepared protein
	hs = r.from_protein(prot)

	# score molecule
	mol = MoleculeReader("mol.mol2")
	scored_mol = hs.score(mol)
	with MoleculeWriter("score_mol.mol2") as w:
	    w.write(scored_mol)

	# score protein
	scored_prot = hs.score(hs.prot)
	with MoleculeWriter("scored_prot.mol2") as w:
	    w.write(scored_prot)


To learn about other ways you can use the Hotspots API please see the examples
directory and read our API documentation.
