It includes monomer structures, ground-truth dimer complexes, predicted structures, and apo conformations\u2014the first dataset to pair predicted and apo structures for training flexible docking methods. The dataset is approximately 500 times larger than previous state-of-the-art datasets.\n\nThe Python API handles automatic downloading and caching of dataset files to a local directory (defaulting to ~/.local/share/pinder), with command-line tools for managing downloads and updates. It depends on 19 runtime packages including torch, torch-geometric, biotite, and pandas, making it suitable for machine learning workflows. The dataset requires approximately 700 GB of disk space when fully unpacked.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are actively developing or benchmarking protein docking algorithms and have approximately 700 GB of disk space available. The dataset is substantially larger than prior resources and uniquely includes paired predicted and apo structures. However, maintenance is dormant, so verify compatibility with your current PyTorch and torch-geometric versions before committing to a production workflow. For exploratory work or small-scale evaluation, the download overhead may not justify the install."},"id":"pinder","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pinder","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pinder.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pinder/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-11-15","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pinder","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"PINDER: The Protein INteraction Dataset and Evaluation Resource"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":105620,"position":12688,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.5.0"}
