PyRod is a python software developed to generate dynamic molecular interaction fields (dMIFs) and pharmacophore features based on analyzing the protein environment of water molecules in molecular dynamcis simulations. Check the PyRod wiki for more information on installation and usage. The employed algorithms are described in the PyRod publication in JCIM.

PyRod is written in python 3.8 and uses MDAnalysis (>= 0.19.0, is shipped with NumPy and SciPy), NumPy and SciPy which can be easily installed using pip:

pip3 install --upgrade MDAnalysis

or

python3 -m pip install --upgrade MDAnalysis

You can also use conda to install all dependencies:

conda create -n pyrod -c conda-forge mdanalysis python=3.8

echo 'alias pyrod="python3 ~/pyrod/pyrod.py"' >> ~/.bashrc

source activate pyrod

pyrod /path/to/pyrod_config_file.cfg

An example Jupyter Notebook for visualization of dMIFs using NGLView is provided in the example directory.
