This is a fork of the original lollipops diagram generator to be found at Jeremy Jay's world of magic! My version uses a Python executable to translate the HGNC Symbols into Uniprot numbers for Pfam domain accession instead of using the UniProt REST API (which works fine, and Jeremy uses) or the Biomart API (which had plenty of issues in the past). Additionally, I allow for height modulation by rarity of a variant, and contributed the color changing of variants by nature of variant (stop lost, stop gained, missense, silent, etc.) to his original repo. I plan on updating the program with further insertions to possibly allow for CATH domains to be transcribed, and to add more examples of how my version is used, and how it differs. If you would rather use the original, simply check out the link above!
This is a simple 'lollipop' mutation diagram generator that tries to make things as automated as possible. It uses the Pfam API to retrieve domains and colors, and mygene (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mygene) to translate HGNC Gene Symbols into Uniprot/SwissProt Accession numbers. If variant changes are provided, it will also annotate them to the diagram using the "lollipops" markers that give the tool its name.
./lollipops TP53 E343Q R342Q F338 R335C R283H R283C R282W R248Q G245S C242 N235S P223H P222 P222L V216 R213 L206 L194 D186E S185 S185N R158 R156H Y107H
Results in the following SVG image:
Usage: lollipops [options] GENE_SYMBOL [PROTEIN CHANGES ...]
Where GENE_SYMBOL is the official HGNC symbol and PROTEIN CHANGES
is a list of amino acid changes of the format "(amino-code)(position)..."
Amino-code can be either the 1- or 3-character code for the amino acid.
Only the first position in each change is used for plotting even if the
change contains a range. All characters after the position are ignored.
-o=out.svg SVG output filename (default GENE_SYMBOL.svg)
-labels draw labels for each mutation
-hide-axis do not draw the aa position axis
-hide-disordered do not draw disordered regions
-hide-motifs do not draw motifs
-w=700 SVG output width (default=automatic)
If you are working with non-human data, or know the Uniprot Accession
already, You can specify it with -U UNIPROTID instead of GENE_SYMBOL,
for example the following mouse query works for gene Mobp:
./lollipops -U Q9D2P8
