How to run a Paratyping Analysis

Overview of the steps required to launch the Paratyping job and where to retrieve the results.

How to run a Paratyping job

  • Step 1. On the LensAI™ Home Page, click "Run Analysis"
    LensAI Run Analysis

  • Step 2. Locate the Paratyping analysis and click "Run Analysis"

  • Step 3. Inside the run configuration, select an input file from datasets. 

    Two input file types are supported: CSV and FASTA.

Caution: A single file must be chosen from a dataset, not the dataset itself.

Either a CSV file or a FASTA file should be selected.

Input CSV file: The preferred CSV format includes the following columns:

    • protein_name
    • chain_name (VH indicating heavy chain or VL indicating light chain)
    • chain_sequence (the sequence string)

Each row represents a single chain of a protein. Sequences that share protein_name are taken together as a single (multimeric) protein.

Example of a valid input CSV file:

protein_name,chain_sequence,chain_name

Input FASTA file: The FASTA file should include each chain as a separate record:

    • Headers must end with _VH for heavy chains and _VL for light chains.
    • Both chains of the same antibody must share the same base name (e.g., Ab1_VH and Ab1_VL).

Example of a valid FASTA file:

  • Step 4. Define options
    • Select “VHH” if the input sequences are nanobodies. Otherwise select “IgG Fv”.
    • Define “Target name” to be used in the report.
  • Step 5. Define the output dataset logical name
