Execution

Each script can be run from the command line or from within R using the source command.

The very first script is "TPC_fitting_pipeline.R". It has to be run from the command line as follows:

./TPC_fitting_pipeline.R traits # models fitted to trait datasets

or

./TPC_fitting_pipeline.R enzymes # models fitted to enzyme datasets

For this script to run, the data need to be placed under a "Data/" directory, outside "Code/". The "Results/model_fits/" and "Results/enzyme_model_fits/" directories should also exist.
