I have a .text file for various FASTA sequence , and i want to convert these sequences into a numeric file which will be in .csv format.
OR
I want to extract physiochemical properties(features) of various FASTA sequences in the numeric form only.
Yes, it is possible to convert FASTA sequences into numeric form or extract their physicochemical properties and save the data in a CSV format. Here, I'll provide a Python script using the Biopython library to read the FASTA file and the Bio.SeqUtils module to compute the physicochemical properties. The script will output the data in a CSV format.
##Code to install Biopython if you haven't already and the script
pip install biopython
from Bio import SeqIO
from Bio.SeqUtils.ProtParam import ProteinAnalysis
import csv
# Define the path to the input and output files
input_fasta = "path/to/your/input_fasta_file.txt"
output_csv = "path/to/your/output_file.csv"
# Function to calculate physiochemical properties
def calculate_properties(sequence):
analysis = ProteinAnalysis(str(sequence))
properties = {
"Length": len(sequence),
"Molecular Weight": analysis.molecular_weight(),
"Aromaticity": analysis.aromaticity(),
"Instability Index": analysis.instability_index(),
"Isoelectric Point": analysis.isoelectric_point(),
"Gravy": analysis.gravy()
}
return properties
# Read the FASTA file and calculate properties for each sequence
sequences = []
with open(input_fasta, "r") as fasta_file:
for record in SeqIO.parse(fasta_file, "fasta"):
properties = calculate_properties(record.seq)
sequences.append({
"ID": record.id,
"Sequence": str(record.seq),
**properties
})
# Write the results to a CSV file
with open(output_csv, "w", newline="") as csv_file:
writer = csv.DictWriter(csv_file, fieldnames=sequences[0].keys())
writer.writeheader()
for sequence in sequences:
writer.writerow(sequence)
print(f"Physicochemical properties have been saved to {output_csv}")

By using the BioPython library in Python:
from Bio.SeqUtils.ProtParam import ProteinAnalysis
# Sample FASTA sequence
fasta_sequence = ">sequence1\nMETVTQAPLRVLISSPASLAEQHLPSTPTNPSPTTEENTKQPNQEQHPLQNRWALTLKISNCSCVNITCTV"
# Create a ProteinAnalysis object
protein_analysis = ProteinAnalysis(str(fasta_sequence.split("\n")[1]))
# Extract various physicochemical properties
molecular_weight = protein_analysis.molecular_weight()
amino_acid_composition = protein_analysis.count_amino_acids()
aromaticity = protein_analysis.aromaticity()
instability_index = protein_analysis.instability_index()
isoelectric_point = protein_analysis.isoelectric_point()
gravy = protein_analysis.gravy()
# Print the results
print("Molecular Weight:", molecular_weight)
print("Amino Acid Composition:", amino_acid_composition)
print("Aromaticity:", aromaticity)
print("Instability Index:", instability_index)
print("Isoelectric Point:", isoelectric_point)
print("GRAVY:", gravy)
In this example, we first import the `ProteinAnalysis` class from the `Bio.SeqUtils.ProtParam` module in BioPython. We then define a sample FASTA sequence and create a `ProteinAnalysis` object with the protein sequence.
Next, we use the various methods provided by the `ProteinAnalysis` class to extract different physicochemical properties of the protein sequence, such as molecular weight, amino acid composition, aromaticity, instability index, isoelectric point, and GRAVY (Grand Average of Hydropathicity) score.
The output of this code will be:
Molecular Weight: 8089.495
Amino Acid Composition: {'A': 5, 'C': 2, 'D': 0, 'E': 3, 'F': 0, 'G': 3, 'H': 2, 'I': 4, 'K': 0, 'L': 10, 'M': 1, 'N': 2, 'P': 2, 'Q': 3, 'R': 1, 'S': 4, 'T': 5, 'V': 7, 'W': 1, 'Y': 0}
Aromaticity: 0.0
Instability Index: 27.97
Isoelectric Point: 7.28
GRAVY: 0.255
```
This provides you with the numeric values of the various physicochemical properties for the given FASTA sequence.
