MMTF-Spark is a Java open source project that provides APIs and sample applications for the scalable mining of 3D biomacromolecular structures, such as the Protein Data Bank (PDB) archive. MMTF-Spark uses Big Data technologies to enable high-performance parallel processing of macromolecular structures. MMTF-Spark use the following technology stack:

  • Apache Spark a fast and general engine for large-scale distributed data processing.
  • MMTF the Macromolecular Transmission Format for compact data storage, transmission and high-performance parsing
  • Hadoop Sequence File a Big Data file format for parallel I/O
  • Apache Parquet a columnar data format to store dataframes
  • BioJava a framework for processing biological data

Tutorials

The companion project mmtf-workshop-2017 offers an introduction to Apache Spark and in-depth tutorials and sample code how to use MMTF-Spark.

In addition, a Python version MMTF-PySpark is under development. MMTF-PySpark offers demos as Jupyter notebooks as well as an experimental zero-install Binder 2.0 deployment of MMTF-PySpark.

Installation

MacOS and LINUX

Windows

PDB archive as MMTF-Hadoop Sequence Files

For high-performance, parallel processing, mmtf-spark can read the PDB archive in the MMTF file format from Hadoop Sequence Files. See mmtf.rcsb.org for more details. The installation instructions cover the download of MMTF-Hadoop Sequence files.

Running a Demo Application using spark-submit

Example of running a simple structural query (see PolyPeptideChainStatistics.java).

spark-submit --class edu.sdsc.mmtf.spark.mappers.demos.PolyPeptideChainStatistics  INSTALL_DIRECTORY/mmtf-spark/target/mmtf-spark-0.3.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Example of running a structural alignment (see DemoQueryVsAll.java).

spark-submit --class edu.sdsc.mmtf.spark.alignments.demos.DemoQueryVsAll  INSTALL_DIRECTORY/mmtf-spark/target/mmtf-spark-0.3.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Example of retrieving PDB metadata (see PdbMetadataDemo.java).

spark-submit --class edu.sdsc.mmtf.spark.datasets.demos.PdbMetadataDemo  INSTALL_DIRECTORY/mmtf-spark/target/mmtf-spark-0.3.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Example of retrieving PDB annotations from the SIFTS project (see SiftsDataDemo.java).

spark-submit --class edu.sdsc.mmtf.spark.datasets.demos.SiftsDataDemo INSTALL_DIRECTORY/mmtf-spark/target/mmtf-spark-0.3.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

Example with command line arguments. This example reads the PDB files in an input directory (recursively) and creates an MMTF-Hadoop Sequence file directory (see PdbToMmtfFull.java).

spark-submit --class edu.sdsc.mmtf.spark.io.demos.PdbToMmtfFull  INSTALL_DIRECTORY/mmtf-spark/target/mmtf-spark-0.2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar PDB_FILE_DIRECTORY MMTF_HADOOP_FILE_DIRECTORY
