PMGen (Peptide MHC Generator) is a comprehensive pipeline for predicting peptide-MHC (pMHC) complex structures and designing optimized peptide sequences.

## Key Features

- **Fast & accurate structure prediction** using AlphaFold with template engineering or initial guess mode
- **Peptide sequence design** with structure-aware optimization
- **MHC pseudo-sequence design** for customized allele engineering
- **Iterative peptide optimization** with binding prediction
- **Mutation screening** for systematic variant analysis
- **Batch processing** for multiple pMHC complexes

## Reproduce paper results
Please download the data and the notebook to reproduce paper results at https://wwwuser.gwdguser.de/~compbiol/pmgen/.
## Installation

### Requirements

- Python 3.8+
- Conda or Mamba
- Git

Optional
- Modeller (requires a license key - [get it here](https://salilab.org/modeller/registration.html))
- CUDA-enabled GPU (Required for faster Alphafold predictions)

### Setup

```bash
git clone https://github.com/soedinglab/PMGen.git
cd PMGen
bash -l install.sh
#or, for CPU only support run: bash -l install.sh --cpu
conda activate PMGen
```

You will be prompted to enter your Modeller license key. The script automatically:
- Creates the PMGen Conda environment
- Installs all dependencies
- Downloads AlphaFold parameters
- Clones PANDORA and ProteinMPNN

### Optional: Configure NetMHCpan (Recommended)

Install [NetMHCpan](https://services.healthtech.dtu.dk/services/NetMHCpan-4.1/) and [NetMHCIIpan](https://services.healthtech.dtu.dk/services/NetMHCIIpan-4.3/), then edit `user_setting.py`:

```python
netmhcipan_path = '/path/to/netMHCpan'
netmhciipan_path = '/path/to/netMHCIIpan'
```

## Quick Start

### Prepare Input File

Create a tab-separated file (`input.tsv`) with your pMHC data:

```tsv
peptide	mhc_seq	mhc_type	anchors	id
GILGFVFTL	GSHSMRYFFTSVSRPGRGEPRFIAVGYVDDTQFVRFDSDAASQRMEPRAPWIEQEGPEYWDGETRKVKAHSQTHRVDLGTLRGYYNQSEAGSHTVQRMYGCDVGSDWRFLRGYHQYAYDGKDYIALKEDLRSWTAADMAAQTTKHKWEAAHVAEQLRAYLEGTCVEWLRRYLENGKETLQRTDAPKTHMTHHAVSDHEATLRCWALSFYPAEITLTWQRDGEDQTQDTELVETRPAGDGTFQKWAAVVVPSGQEQRYTCHVQHEGLPKPLTLRWE	1		sample1

```

**Columns:**
- `peptide`: Peptide sequence
- `mhc_seq`: MHC sequence (for MHC-II: Alpha/Beta separated by `/`)
- `mhc_type`: 1 for MHC-I, 2 for MHC-II
- `anchors`: Anchor positions (leave empty for prediction)
- `id`: Unique identifier

### Basic Structure Prediction (Recommended)

**Single-threaded mode with initial guess (fastest & most accurate):**

```bash
python run_PMGen.py \
  --mode wrapper \
  --run single \
  --df input.tsv \
  --output_dir output/ \
  --initial_guess
```

This is the **preferred mode** for most users. It uses:
- `--mode wrapper`: Works for one or more than one prediction per run.
- `--run single`: Sequential processing (unparallel)
- `--initial_guess`: Fast and more accurate AlphaFold mode without homology modeling (recommended)

## Common Use Cases

### 1. Structure Prediction with Multiple Models

```bash
python run_PMGen.py \
  --mode wrapper \
  --run single \
  --df input.tsv \
  --output_dir output/ \
  --initial_guess \
  --models model_1_ptm model_2_ptm model_3_ptm
```

### 2. Peptide Sequence Design

Generate optimized peptide variants:

```bash
python run_PMGen.py \
  --mode wrapper \
  --run single \
  --df input.tsv \
  --output_dir output/ \
  --initial_guess \
  --peptide_design \
  --num_sequences_peptide 50 \
  --binder_pred
```

### 3. MHC Pseudo-Sequence Design

Customize MHC binding groove residues:

```bash
python run_PMGen.py \
  --mode wrapper \
  --run single \
  --df input.tsv \
  --output_dir output/ \
  --initial_guess \
  --only_pseudo_sequence_design \
  --num_sequences_mhc 20
```

### 4. Iterative Peptide Optimization

Optimize peptides over multiple rounds:

```bash
python run_PMGen.py \
  --mode wrapper \
  --run single \
  --df input.tsv \
  --output_dir output/ \
  --initial_guess \
  --peptide_design \
  --binder_pred \
  --iterative_peptide_gen 3 \
  --fix_anchors
```

### 5. Mutation Screening

Systematically test point mutations:

```bash
python run_PMGen.py \
  --mode wrapper \
  --run single \
  --df input.tsv \
  --output_dir output/ \
  --initial_guess \
  --mutation_screen \
  --n_mutations 1
```

## Key Options

| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--mode wrapper` | Batch processing mode (recommended) |
| `--run single` | Sequential processing (recommended) |
| `--initial_guess` | Fast AF mode without templates (recommended) |
| `--peptide_design` | Enable peptide sequence generation |
| `--only_pseudo_sequence_design` | Design MHC binding groove only |
| `--binder_pred` | Predict binding affinity (requires NetMHCpan) |
| `--fix_anchors` | Keep anchor positions fixed during design |
| `--iterative_peptide_gen N` | Run N rounds of optimization |
| `--mutation_screen` | Systematic mutation analysis |
| `--num_templates` | Number of structural templates (default: 4) |
| `--num_recycles` | AlphaFold recycles (default: 3) |
