mutationhotspots

Algorithms to detect mutational hotspots. Currently, MutationHotspotsDetection only supports detection of intra-chain hotspots in 3D protein structures.

Binary JAR file is available in releases.

Usage

java -jar MutationHotspotsDetection-1.2.1.jar <input.maf> <output.results.txt>

Here is an example input MAF file

Either ENSP or SWISSPROT should have data for each mutation. CODE is not required. All other columns are required.

IMPORTANT: The mutations in the input MAF should be pre-sorted by ENSP or SWISSPROT column.
