Abstract

Physicochemical n-Grams Tool (PnGT) is an open-source standalone software for calculating physicochemical descriptors of protein. PnGT was developed using the Python scripting language and developed the user interface using Tkinter. The software currently calculates 33 physicochemical descriptors along with the sequence length for the given protein primary sequence. The descriptor generated by this tool can be directly utilized as the feature vector for the development of proteomics statistical or machine learning predictive model.
