PINDER: The Protein INteraction Dataset and Evaluation Resource


PyPI license GitHub Repo stars test codecov

๐Ÿ“š About

pinder, short for protein interaction dataset and evaluation resource, is a dataset and resource for training and evaluation of protein-protein docking algorithms. It is ~500x larger than previous state of the art datasets and is the first dataset to include paired predicted and apo structures to train flexible docking methods.

The dataset is large (~700Gb) and hosted on Google Cloud Storage (available at the gs://pinder bucket).

๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ’ป Getting Started

Prerequisites

fastpdb support

pinder uses fastpdb to accelerate PDB I/O operations. fastpdb is a dependency of pinder-core, and pip will attempt to install it for you during the installation of pinder. Pre-built wheels of fastpdb are available on PyPI for the following platforms:

  1. Linux with glibc>=2.34 (e.g., Debian 12, Ubuntu 22.04, RHEL 9, etc.)
  2. MacOS Sierra (10.12) or newer
  3. Windows

If your platform doesn't match these conditions, you will not get a wheel and pip will attempt to build fastpdb from source. In order to build fastpdb from source, you will need the rust toolchain, which you can install by running:

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

before installing pinder.

Install pinder

Initialize a virtual environment or conda environment

We recommend installing pinder into a clean virtual environment or conda environment. This can be done using mamba or conda (you can swap mamba for conda for the same functionality):

mamba create --name pinder python=3.11
mamba activate pinder

or via venv from the Python standard library:

# clone the repo and cd into it, unless you plan to install from PyPI, then
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

Install optional dependencies

pytorch-cluster

pytorch-cluster is an optional dependency for pinder. If you wish to make use of its features, you will need to install it separately.

To install from a wheel, run

pip install torch-cluster -f https://data.pyg.org/whl/torch-${TORCH}+${CUDA}.html

where ${TORCH} should be replaced by the version of PyTorch installed and ${CUDA} should be replaced by either cpu, cu118, or cu121 depending on your PyTorch installation.

To install from source, first make sure you have pytorch installed in the current environment (pip install torch), then run

pip install torch-cluster

Note that on Apple Silicon MacOS machines, installation from source is the only option.

PRODIGY-cryst

PRODIGY-cryst is used in the data ingestion pipeline to predict the probability that an interface is a biological interaction. While it is not needed to use pinder.core, it is an optional dependency of pinder.data and can be installed as a git-based installation. To install, run

pip install git+https://github.com/yusuf1759/prodigy-cryst.git

Install pinder packages from PyPI

To install with the minimal dependencies needed to use pinder.core

pip install pinder

Install optional extras, for instance to use the pinder.eval package

pip install pinder[eval]

Or, install all extras

pip install pinder[all]

โฌ‡๏ธ Getting the dataset

We strongly recommend to interact via the provided python API in pinder-core, as follows, which will automatically download and load the data into either $PINDER_BASE_DIR or $XDG_DATA_HOME (usually ~/.local/share/pinder on Mac and Linux) if no explicit download path is provided (recommended)

NOTE: the default location for the dataset is ~/.local/share/pinder/<release version>

If you want to use a different location, you can do so by setting the PINDER_BASE_DIR environment variable.

The base dir refers to a fully qualified path name up until the <release version> (not inclusive).

For instance, you could:

export PINDER_BASE_DIR=~/my-custom-location-for-pinder/pinder

You can always check the current location of the dataset like so:

from pinder.core import get_pinder_location
get_pinder_location()

The current release version of pinder is 2024-02.

You can find the list of available dataset releases and the associated changes in the data changelog.

To download the complete dataset run the following

pinder_download --help

usage: Download latest pinder dataset to disk [-h] [--pinder_base_dir PINDER_BASE_DIR] [--pinder_release PINDER_RELEASE] [--skip_inflation]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --pinder_base_dir PINDER_BASE_DIR
                        specify a non-default pinder base directory
  --pinder_release PINDER_RELEASE
                        specify a pinder dataset version
  --skip_inflation      if passed, will only download the compressed archives without unpacking

The full dataset should look like this:

get_pinder_location()/
    pdbs/
    test_set_pdbs/
    mappings/
    index.parquet
    metadata.parquet

It is also possible to download it manually, via

export PINDER_RELEASE=2024-02
export PINDER_ROOT=pinder/$PINDER_RELEASE
mkdir -p $XDG_DATA_HOME/$PINDER_ROOT/
gsutil -m cp gs://$PINDER_ROOT/pdbs.zip $XDG_DATA_HOME/$PINDER_ROOT/
gsutil -m cp gs://$PINDER_ROOT/test_set_pdbs.zip $XDG_DATA_HOME/$PINDER_ROOT/
gsutil -m cp gs://$PINDER_ROOT/mappings.zip $XDG_DATA_HOME/$PINDER_ROOT/
gsutil -m cp gs://$PINDER_ROOT/index.parquet $XDG_DATA_HOME/$PINDER_ROOT/
gsutil -m cp gs://$PINDER_ROOT/metadata.parquet $XDG_DATA_HOME/$PINDER_ROOT/
cd $XDG_DATA_HOME/$PINDER_ROOT
unzip pdbs.zip && rm pdbs.zip
unzip test_set_pdbs.zip && rm test_set_pdbs.zip
unzip mappings.zip && rm mappings.zip

however, this is discouraged and requires installing gsutil.

Note: to download the full dataset, you will need ~700Gb of free disk space.

# compressed
144G    pdbs.zip
149M    test_set_pdbs.zip
6.8G    mappings.zip

# unpacked
672G    pdbs
705M    test_set_pdbs
25G     mappings

Updating the dataset

In the event that there are patch (non-breaking) changes to the index or metadata, you can sync your local copy of the index using a similar command-line interface:

pinder_update_index --help

usage: Download latest pinder index to disk [-h] [--pinder_base_dir PINDER_BASE_DIR] [--pinder_release PINDER_RELEASE] [--skip_inflation]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --pinder_base_dir PINDER_BASE_DIR
                        specify a non-default pinder base directory
  --pinder_release PINDER_RELEASE
                        specify a pinder dataset version

If any structure files have been changed (will be announced in data changelog), but a major release (PINDER_RELEASE) has not yet been published, to sync your local dataset:

pinder_sync_data --help
usage: Sync missing pinder structural data files to disk [-h] [--pinder_base_dir PINDER_BASE_DIR] [--pinder_release PINDER_RELEASE] [--skip_inflation]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --pinder_base_dir PINDER_BASE_DIR
                        specify a non-default pinder base directory
  --pinder_release PINDER_RELEASE
                        specify a pinder dataset version

3. โš–๏ธ Evaluation harness

A complete evaluation harness with a set of highly efficient pure-python or rust implementations of standard metrics for evaluation, such as DockQ is provided.

We use the community-standard CAPRI metrics for assessing docking methods. Further detail can be found here

The evaluation harness can be used either through methods in pinder.eval or as a CLI script:

pinder_eval --help

usage: pinder_eval [-h] --eval_dir eval_dir [--serial] [--method_name method_name] [--allow_missing] [--custom_index CUSTOM_INDEX] [--max_workers MAX_WORKERS]

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --eval_dir eval_dir, -f eval_dir
                        Path to eval
  --serial, -s          Whether to disable parallel eval over systems
  --method_name method_name, -m method_name, -n method_name
                        Optional name for output csv
  --allow_missing, -a   Whether to allow missing systems for a given pinder-set + monomer
  --custom_index CUSTOM_INDEX, -c CUSTOM_INDEX
                        Optional local filepath or GCS uri to a custom index with non-pinder splits. Note: must still follow the pinder index schema and define test holdout sets, but does not need to share the same
                        split members.
  --max_workers MAX_WORKERS, -w MAX_WORKERS
                        Optional maximum number of processes to spawn in multiprocessing. Default is None (all available cores).

The expected format for the contents of eval_dir are shown below:

            โ”œโ”€โ”€ model_1.pdb
            โ””โ”€โ”€ model_2.pdb

The eval directory should contain one or more methods to evaluate as sub-directories.

Each method sub-directory should contains sub-directories that are named by pinder system ID.

Inside of each pinder system sub-directory, you should have three subdirectories:

You can have any number of decoys in each directory; however, the decoys should be named in a way that the prediction rank can be extracted. In the above example, the decoys are named using a model_<rank>.pdb convention. Other names for decoy models are accepted, so long as they can match the regex pattern used in pinder.eval.dockq.MethodMetrics: r"\d+(?=\D*$)"

Each model decoy should have exactly two chains: {R, L} for {Receptor, Ligand}, respectively.

โš ๏ธ Note: in order to make a fair comparison of methods across complete test sets, if a method is missing predictions for a system, the following metrics are used as a penalty


{
    "iRMS": 100.0,
    "LRMS": 100.0,
    "Fnat": 0.0,
    "DockQ": 0.0,
    "CAPRI": "Incorrect",
}

For more details on the implementations of the eval metrics, see the eval tutorial, API docs and eval FAQ.

For more details on leaderboard generation, see the MethodMetrics implementation.

4. ๐Ÿงช Training set

We provide a ready-to-use, large training set, PINDER-Train with 2,456,152 pairs, consisting of 1,560,682 bound structures, 274,194 structures with at least one paired apo structure and 621,276 pairs with at least one paired AFDB structures. These can be combined to yield up to 25,130,994 unique training examples. They are clustered by interface similarity via FoldSeek and deleaked by structure and interface similarity against the PINDER-XL (and thus against all others) and validation set, PINDER-Val.

PINDER-Val is included as a redundancy removed validation set of 1,958 holo structures from 1,958 clusters, prepared in identical fashion and distribution to the test set, including 342 apo paired structures and 1,789 AFDB structures, filtered with the same quality criteria as the test set to allow for representative monitoring of training performance.

See Dataset Generation for details on how the dataset was generated.

5. ๐Ÿ“ฆ Dataloader

We provide two flavors of dataloaders based on the Dataset and DataLoader APIs from torch and torch-geometric as example implementations (and are happy to provide more if there are feature requests) for easy loading of datasets.

All dataloaders are based on iterators over PinderSystem, a core abstraction which provides the collection of structural data associated with an entry in the pinder database.

The PinderSystem exposes the following structures:

Note: all monomers follow the chain naming convention of R, L for receptor and ligand, respectively. However, if you are using the PDB files directly without PinderSystem, note that the apo and predicted monomers are both stored with chain ID A. This was done to reduce file/disk burden by not duplicating apo/predicted monomers that map to both receptor and/or ligand across multiple systems.

Each structure is defined by the Structure abstraction. See the example notebook for more details.

We provide the following features:

Feature Abstraction Example
Get collection of monomers associated with a pinder entry using PinderSystem PinderSystem pinder-system.ipynb
Classify system difficulty based on degree of conformational shift in unbound and bound using PinderSystem PinderSystem pinder-system.ipynb
Get various structural features like coordinates, residues, atoms and sequence and structural utilities using the Structure abstraction. All of the monomers in the PinderSystem object are themselves Structure objects Structure pinder-system.ipynb
Filter pinder systems to construct data mixes using PinderFilterBase PinderFilterBase pinder-loader.ipynb
Filter pinder systems to construct data mixes with specific monomers or monomers that satisfy specific filter criteria using PinderFilterSubBase PinderFilterSubBase pinder-loader.ipynb
Filter individual Structure objects in a system to construct data mixes with specific monomer properties using StructureFilter StructureFilter pinder-loader.ipynb
Construct iterator for getting specific data mixes and applying collection of filters through PinderLoader PinderLoader pinder-loader.ipynb
Load systems as a pytorch dataset using PinderDataset PinderDataset pinder-loader.ipynb
Load datasets as pytorch geometric graph datasets using PPIDataset PPIDataset pinder-loader.ipynb
Create standard pytorch dataloaders using get_torch_loader with PinderDataset as input get_torch_loader pinder-loader.ipynb
Create standard torch-geometric dataloaders using get_geo_loader with PPIDataset as input get_geo_loader pinder-loader.ipynb
Transform structures in a system before use in downstream tasks using TransformBase TransformBase examples
Transform individual Structure objects before use in downstream tasks using StructureTransform StructureTransform examples

...

We are open to feature requests to add further functionality.

Torch dataloader

A standardized pytorch dataloader to load subsets of the dataset for training and validation is provided.

Pinder provides a torch.utils.data.Dataset sub-class, PinderDataset, which is used to create a tensor dataset.

The dataset class provides an interface for processing the PinderSystem object into a dictionary object containing the feature/sample complex and the target (ground-truth) complex represented as a dictionary of structural properties encoded as Tensor objects.

It can be used as follows:

from pinder.core import get_pinder_location, get_torch_loader, PinderDataset
from pinder.core.loader import filters, transforms

train_dataset = PinderDataset(
    split="train",
    # We can leverage holo, apo, pred, random and random_mixed monomer sampling strategies
    monomer_priority="random_mixed",
    base_filters: list[filters.PinderFilterBase] = [],
    sub_filters: list[filters.PinderFilterSubBase] = [],
    structure_filters: list[filters.StructureFilter] = [],
    structure_transforms_target: list[transforms.StructureTransform] = [],
    structure_transforms_feature: list[transforms.StructureTransform] = [],
)

train_loader = get_torch_loader(train_dataset, batch_size=2, shuffle=True)
# Get a batch from the dataloader
batch = next(iter(train_dataloader))

Note: this is only one example of a featurizer that illustrates how to construct dict batch structure containing dicts of structure properties as tensors from PinderSystem objects.

Pytorch-geometric dataloader

A standardized pytorch-geometric dataloader to load subsets of the dataset for training and validation is provided.

Pinder provides a torch_geometric.data.Dataset sub-class, PPIDataset, which is used to create a graph dataset.

The dataset class provides an interface for processing the PinderSystem object into HeteroData objects that are written to disk.

It can be used as follows:

from pinder.core import get_pinder_location, get_geo_loader, PPIDataset
from pinder.core.loader import filters
from pinder.core.loader.geodata import NodeRepresentation

nodes = {
  NodeRepresentation("atom"), NodeRepresentation("residue")
}

train_dataset = PPIDataset(
    node_types=nodes,
    split="train",
    monomer1="holo_receptor",
    monomer2="holo_ligand",
    base_filters: list[filters.PinderFilterBase] = [],
    sub_filters: list[filters.PinderFilterSubBase] = [],
    root: Path = get_pinder_location(),
    transform: Callable[[PinderSystem], PinderSystem] | None = None,
    pre_transform: Callable[[PinderSystem], PinderSystem] | None = None,
    pre_filter: Callable[[PinderSystem], PinderSystem | bool] | None = None,
    limit_by: int | None = None,
    force_reload: bool = False,
    filenames_dir: Path | str | None = None,
    repeat: int = 1,
    use_cache: bool = False,
    ids: list[str] | None = None,
    add_edges: bool = True,
    k: int = 10,
)

loader = get_geo_loader(train_dataset)

Note: this is only one example of a featurizer that illustrates how to construct a hetero graph from a PinderSystem object.

We welcome and encourage contributions of additional featurizers. To implement additional featurizers, please see the PairedPDB implementation. New featurizers should implement a way to convert Structure instances belonging to PinderSystem's into the respective pytorch or pytorch-geometric data objects.

For more detailed usage examples, including how to use the underlying loader without torch-geometric, see the example notebook.

6. โ„น๏ธ Filters & Annonations

A core philosophy behind pinder is to provide a large, unfiltered training dataset to derive data mixes for evaluating the impact of different data selection strategies. To that end, we provide extensive tooling for leveraging annotations in filters.

A large set of quality control annotations including interface cluster, resolution, interfacial gaps, planarity, elongation, and more can be accessed via the PinderSystem object or directly in data frames.

We also provide the effective MSA Depth ($N_{eff}$) calculated for each of the test members in PINDER-XL/S/AF2 to allow accurate performance assessment by evolutionary information.

Each PinderSystem object has an .entry and .metadata property, which expose all the primary annotations in the index and detailed metadata, respectively.

These annotations can be used during loading either by filtering the data frames or by implementing filters and transforms. For example, to filter on some metadata fields, you can construct a series of FilterMetadataFields filters:


from pinder.core import PinderLoader
from pinder.core.loader import filters

base_filters = [
    filters.FilterByMissingHolo(),
    filters.FilterSubByContacts(min_contacts=5, radius=10.0, calpha_only=True),
    filters.FilterByHoloElongation(max_var_contribution=0.92),
    filters.FilterDetachedHolo(radius=12, max_components=2),

    filters.FilterMetadataFields(contains_antibody=('', False)),
    # You can also combine multiple fields in the FilterMetadataFields:
    filters.FilterMetadataFields(
      contains_enzyme=('is not', True),
      resolution=('<=', 2.75),
      method=('!=', 'X-RAY DIFFRACTION'),
    ),
]

# These operate on individual monomers
sub_filters = [
    filters.FilterSubByAtomTypes(min_atom_types=4),
    filters.FilterByHoloOverlap(min_overlap=5),
    filters.FilterByHoloSeqIdentity(min_sequence_identity=0.8),
    filters.FilterSubLengths(min_length=0, max_length=1000),
    filters.FilterSubRmsds(rmsd_cutoff=7.5),
    filters.FilterByElongation(max_var_contribution=0.92),
    filters.FilterDetachedSub(radius=12, max_components=2),
]
loader = PinderLoader(
    split="test",
    subset="pinder_af2",
    base_filters = base_filters,
    sub_filters = sub_filters
)
for item in loader:
    # do something
    pass

These are documented in greater detail in the examples section.

7. ๐Ÿ“ก Future work

While pinder makes significant strides, several limitations highlight areas for future improvement. Most evidently, pinder is currently focusing on biological dimers. As more methods expand beyond dimers, such as via co-folding approaches, pinder will be generalized to higher-order oligomers. Additionally, there are a few smaller methodological limitations - for instance, the reliance on single reference conformations and the inherent bias towards homodimers in the dataset can impact the accuracy and generalizability of the models.

Further, improvements in apo pairing and the integration of more advanced tools, such as iAlign, into the alignment methodology could enhance the dataset's precision. Addressing these limitations could lead to even larger datasets, better performance and evaluation in future iterations of pinder. We provide a more detailed discussion of the limitations of the pinder dataset and methodology in limitations. Below we summarize some key areas of future work:

๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ’ป Code organization

This code is split into 4 subpackages

๐Ÿ’ฝ Dataset Generation

The above datasets was generated using the following steps:

๐Ÿšช Input

The RCSB NextGen database (as of 01.29.2024) was used as the starting point. All mmCIF files were obtained and representative biological assemblies were generated.

โ„น๏ธ Annotation

Annotations were obtained from the RCSB NextGen database. The following annotations are included:

  1. Oligomeric state of the protein complex (homodimer, heterodimer, oligomer or higher-order complexes)
  2. Structure determination method (X-Ray, CryoEM, NMR)
  3. Resolution
  4. Interfacial gaps, defined as structurally-unresolved segments on PPI interfaces
  5. Number of distinct atom types. Many earlier Cryo-EM structures contain only a few atom-types such as only Cฮฑ or backbone atoms
  6. Whether the interface is likely to be a physiological or crystal contact, annotated using Prodigy
  7. Structural elongation, defined as the maximum variance of coordinates projected onto the largest principal component. This allows detection of long end-to-end stacked complexes, likely to be repetitive with small interfaces
  8. Planarity, defined as deviation of interfacial Cฮฑ atoms from the fitted plane. This interface characteristic quantifies interfacial shape complementarity. Transient complexes have smaller and more planar interfaces than permanent and structural scaffold complexes
  9. Number of components, defined as the number of connected components of a 10ร… Cฮฑ radius graph. This allows detection of structurally discontinuous domains
  10. Intermolecular contacts (labeled as polar or apolar)

๐Ÿ‘ฅ Clustering

The clustering works as follows

๐Ÿงญ Test filters

Sampling for the test and validation sets was performed based on the following criteria:

All clusters where any one member passed the above criteria were kept. These filters resulted in 32,775 PPIs (we call these proto-test) in 5,047 clusters (used for val/PINDER-XL).

PPIs which passed the criteria in these sampled clusters were deleaked by an additional transitive neighbor search, where any system that had a transitive hit within a depth of 2 in the foldseek graph, but a different cluster ID, was removed. Leaky systems were kept, but assigned a split label of invalid. Eligible systems were ranked by heterodimer vs. homodimer (heterodimer preferred), whether they pass the PINDER-AF2 criteria, and availability of apo and AFDB paired structures. 1 PPI was sampled from each cluster based on the member ranked by the criteria.

๐Ÿ”ช Split

The dataset was split as follows:

From the PDB monomer alignments, we obtained a total of 44,330 unique apo structures, corresponding to 41,630 receptor and 36,910 ligand monomers. This corresponds to 274,194 pinder dimers in train, 441 in val and 436 in PINDER-XL with at least one matched apo structure.

From the AFDB monomer alignments, we obtained a total of 42,827 unique AFDB structures, corresponding to 37,095 receptor and 38,801 ligand monomers. This corresponds to 621,276 pinder dimers in train, 1,817 in val and 1,775 in PINDER-XL with at least one matched AFDB monomer structure.

These were assigned to the respective chain pairs to yield the numbers from above tables.

PINDER-S is a subset of PINDER-XL, consisting of 250 clusters (188 heterodimer and 62 homodimers) sampled for diverse Uniprot and PFAM annotations, 93 of which have apo paired structures (143 have at least one apo monomer) and all of which have paired AFDB structures, to evaluate methods for which sampling from the full set is too slow.

๐Ÿ—ž๏ธ AF2mm

Clusters which contain only members released after 10.01.2021 (the AlphaFold-2MM cutoff date) were separated into 675 clusters. From these 675 members, we further de-leaked against any similar interfaces found to any other entry released before the cutoff date as determined by iAlign. The members which have low or no similarity to AlphaFold2-Multimer training set (180) were assgined to the PINDER-AF2 set. Those members in the PINDER-AF2 set are guaranteed to be structurally distinct from AF2-MM 2.3 training data, while the remaining members are only guaranteed to come from entries released after the cutoff date (time-split).

๐Ÿ“ฐ Updates & Versioning

Dataset and code are versioned independently.

The dataset is expected to be updated with at at maximum monthly release cycles frequency via year-month as subfolders in pinder. The current version is 2024-02

There are 2 "types" of updates:

Major changes may happen with at maximum annual frequency, and will be clearly announced. Methods can choose not to update and continue using previous versions of the dataset

The code is versioned using semantic versioning and updated regularly and contains integration test to avoid invalidating any results
