Tatapov is a Python library making accessible and easy to explore the DNA overhang misannealing data from Potapov et al. (2018, bioRxiv <https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/05/15/322297>) and Pryor et al. (2020, PLoS ONE <https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0238592>):

Optimization of Golden Gate assembly through application of ligation sequence-dependent fidelity and bias profiling. Vladimir Potapov, Jennifer L. Ong, Rebecca B. Kucera, Bradley W. Langhorst, Katharina Bilotti, John M. Pryor, Eric J. Cantor, Barry Canton, Thomas F. Knight, Thomas C. Evans Jr., Gregory Lohman. bioRxiv (2018) https://doi.org/10.1101/322297

Enabling one-pot Golden Gate assemblies of unprecedented complexity using data-optimized assembly design. John M. Pryor, Vladimir Potapov, Rebecca B. Kucera, Katharina Bilotti, Eric J. Cantor, Gregory J. S. Lohman. PLoS ONE (2020) 15(9): e0238592. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0238592

The Supplementary Material of these papers provide tables of inter-overhang annealing data in various conditions (01h or 18h incubations at 25C or 37C). Tatapov provides these tables (it will download them automatically upon first use) as pandas dataframes, so that they are easy to manipulate.

It also provides simple methods to build and plot subsets of the data (plotting requires Matplotlib installed).

Usage example

Plotting

.. code:: python

import tatapov

Get a subset of the data at 25C (1h incubation)

data = tatapov.annealing_data["25C"]["01h"] # a pandas dataframe overhangs = ["ACGA", "AAAT", "AGAG"] subset = tatapov.data_subset(data, overhangs, add_reverse=True)

Plot the data subset

ax, _ = tatapov.plot_data(subset, figwidth=5, plot_color="Blues") ax.figure.tight_layout() ax.figure.savefig("example.png")

In the plot above, if you see anything else than the square pairs around the diagonal, it means there is cross-talking between your overhangs (so risk of misannealing). If one of these diagonal square pairs appears lighter than the others, it means that the corresponding overhang has weak self-annealing (risk of having no assembly). A color square in the diagonal means that the overhang can anneal with itself (palindromic). The Matplotlib colormap is specified with the plot_color parameter.

The following datasets are available (see the publications for more details):

.. code:: python

Potapov 2018:

tatapov.annealing_data[temperature][time]

where temperature is '25C' or '37C', and time is '01h' or '18h'

Pryor 2020 (all 01h):

tatapov.annealing_data['37C'][enzyme]

where enzyme is one of:

'2020_01h_BsaI', '2020_01h_BsmBI', '2020_01h_Esp3I' or '2020_01h_BbsI'

Identifying weak self-annealing overhangs

.. code:: python

import tatapov

annealing_data = tatapov.annealing_data['37C']['01h']

# Compute a dictionary {overhang: self-annealing score in 0-1}
relative_self_annealing = tatapov.relative_self_annealings(annealing_data)

weak_self_annealing_overhangs = [
    overhang
    for overhang, self_annealing in relative_self_annealing.items()
    if self_annealing < 0.4
]

Identifying overhang pairs with significant cross-talking

.. code:: python

import tatapov

annealing_data = tatapov.annealing_data['37C']['01h']

# Compute a dictionary {overhang_pair: cross-talking score in 0-1}
cross_annealings = tatapov.cross_annealings(annealing_data)

high_cross_annealing_pairs = [
    overhang_pair
    for overhang_pair, cross_annealing in cross_annealings.items()
    if cross_annealing > 0.08
]
