Bumps biopython from 1.78 to 1.86.

Changelog

Sourced from biopython's changelog.

28 October 2025: Biopython 1.86

This release of Biopython supports Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 and 3.14. It has also been tested on PyPy3.10 v7.3.19.

Bio.SearchIO now supports parsing the tabular and plain text output of Infernal <http://eddylab.org/infernal/> (v1.0.0+) RNA search tool. The format names are infernal-tab and infernal-text.

The default value of the gap score of a PairwiseAligner object was changed in this release. Previously, for consistency with Bio.pairwise2, the default value for gap score was 0. However, this means that a mismatch, an insertion followed by a deletion, and a deletion followed by an insertion all get assigned a score of 0. The aligner then finds a large number of alignments that are logically the same, but have trivial differences between them. For example, aligning AAACAAA to AAAGAAA previously yielded the following three alignments, all with score 6::

 AAACAAA        AAAC-AAA        AAA-CAAA
 AAAGAAA        AAA-GAAA        AAAG-AAA

With the new default parameter for the gap score, only the first alignment is returned.

Bio.PDB.PDBIO now ensures that b-factor values are always at most 6 characters to ensure that we do not violate the wwPDB specification. This should not have an impact on the majority of uses, as b-factor values are generally small (less than 100). When 1000 <= b-factor < 10_000, the value is rounded to a single decimal place. When, 10_000 <= b-factor < 999_999, the value is rounded to zero decimal places. Values above 999_999 are now clamped. The justification for this is the rise in the b-factor field being used for additional metadata, typically from computational tools.

Bio.Align now provides a method Alignment.from_alignments_with_same_reference to construct a multiple sequence alignment from a collection of alignments that share the same reference sequence.

Bio.PDB.PDBIO will now raise module specific warnings: Bio.PDB.PDBExceptions.PDBIOWarning.

Bio.PDB.SCADIO now supports object selection by color in the OpenSCAD output file. This enables generation of separate STL files for each color for printing protein structures on multi-material 3D printers.

The iplotx library is mentioned in the Tutorial as an option to visualise trees using complex style options.

Many thanks to the Biopython developers and community for making this release possible, especially the following contributors:
