Abstract
There are quintillions of data on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and protein in publicly accessible data banks, and that number is expanding at an exponential rate. Many scientific fields, such as bioinformatics and drug discovery, rely on such data; nevertheless, gathering and extracting data from these resources is a tough undertaking. This data should go through several processes, including mining, data processing, analysis, and classification. This study proposes software that extracts data from big data repositories automatically and with the particular ability to repeat data extraction phases as many times as needed without human intervention. This software simulates the extraction of data from web-based (point-and-click) resources or graphical user interfaces that cannot be accessed using command-line tools. The software was evaluated by creating a novel database of 34 parameters for 1360 physicochemical properties of antimicrobial peptides (AMP) sequences (46240 hits) from various MARVIN software panels, which can be later utilized to develop novel AMPs. Furthermore, for machine learning research, the program was validated by extracting 10,000 protein tertiary structures from the Protein Data Bank. As a result, data collection from the web will become faster and less expensive, with no need for manual data extraction. The software is critical as a first step to preparing large datasets for subsequent stages of analysis, such as those using machine and deep-learning applications.
