- Update to version 1.77
* **We have dropped support for Python 2 now.**
* ``pairwise2`` now allows the input of parameters with keywords and returns the
alignments as a list of ``namedtuples``.
* The codon tables have been updated to NCBI genetic code table version 4.5,
which adds Cephalodiscidae mitochondrial as table 33.
* Updated ``Bio.Restriction`` to the January 2020 release of REBASE.
* A major contribution by Rob Miller to ``Bio.PDB`` provides new methods to
handle protein structure transformations using dihedral angles (internal
coordinates). The new framework supports lossless interconversion between
internal and cartesian coordinates, which, among other uses, simplifies the
analysis and manipulation of coordinates of proteins structures.
* ``PDBParser`` and ``PDBIO`` now support PQR format file parsing and input/
output.
* In addition to the mainstream ``x86_64`` aka ``AMD64`` CPU architecture, we
now also test every contribution on the ``ARM64``, ``ppc64le``, and ``s390x``
CPUs under Linux thanks to Travis CI. Further post-release testing done by
Debian and other packagers and distributors of Biopython also covers these
CPUs.
* ``Bio.motifs.PositionSpecificScoringMatrix.search()`` method has been
re-written: it now applies ``.calculate()`` to chunks of the sequence
to maintain a low memory footprint for long sequences.
* Additionally, a number of small bugs and typos have been fixed with further
additions to the test suite. There has been further work to follow the Python
PEP8, PEP257 and best practice standard coding style, and more of the code
style has been reformatted with the ``black`` tool.
