Dataset Card for 2025-scaffold-structures

This dataset contains sequences from aedupuga/scaffold-dataset analysed to generate their MFE strucutre and energy and other strucutral features.

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

  • —Curated by: Anuhya Edupuganti
  • —Source: www.addgene.org

Dataset Creation

Source Data

This dataset was derived from publicly available plasmid GenBank files.

Data Collection and Processing
  • —Data Source: Plasmid GenBank files downloaded from addgene.org
  • —Selection Criteria: Plasmids were selected based on relevance to synthetic biology applications, including scaffolds, reporter plasmids, and commonly used cloning backbones
  • —Processing Steps:
  • —Downloaded .gbk files corresponding to specific plasmid IDs
  • —Extracted sequence information, plasmid length, and functional annotations
  • —Calculated GC and AT content
  • —Converted sequences to NUPACK-compatible sequences using IUPAC representative base mapping
  • —Predicted minimum free energy (MFE) secondary structures using NUPACK
  • —Extracted structural features: num_pairs, stem_len_mean, num_stems, num_hairpins, num_internal_loops
