Abstract
Peptihub (https://bioinformaticscollege.ir/peptihub/) is a meticulously curated repository of cancer-related peptides (CRPs) that have been documented in scientific literature. A diverse collection of CRPs is included in the PeptiHub, showcasing a spectrum of effects and activities. While some peptides demonstrated significant anticancer efficacy, others exhibited no discernible impact, and some even possessed alternative non-drug functionalities, including drug carrier or carcinogenic attributes. Presently, Peptihub houses 874 CRPs, subjected to evaluation across 10 distinct organism categories, 26 organs, and 438 cell lines. Each entry in the database is accompanied by easily accessible 3D conformations, obtained either experimentally or through predictive methodology. Users are provided with three search frameworks offering basic, advanced, and BLAST sequence search options. Furthermore, precise annotations of peptides enable users to explore CRPs based on their specific activities (anticancer, no effect, insignificant effect, carcinogen, and others) and their effectiveness (rate and IC50) under cancer conditions, specifically within individual organs. This unique property facilitates the construction of robust training and testing datasets. Additionally, PeptiHub offers 1141 features with the convenience of selecting the most pertinent features to address their specific research questions. Features include aaindex1 (in six main subcategories: alpha propensities, beta propensity, composition indices, hydrophobicity, physicochemical properties, and other properties), amino acid composition (Amino acid Composition and Dipeptide Composition), and Grouped Amino Acid Composition (Grouped amino acid composition, Grouped dipeptide composition, and Conjoint triad) categories. These utilities not only speed up machine learning-based peptide design but also facilitate peptide classification. Database URL: https://bioinformaticscollege.ir/peptihub/.
