Pairwise distances DNA sequences (K80 model of DNA evolution) [Python]

Hi everyone,

I need to build phylogenetic tree based on aligned DNA sequences. I used first from Bio.Phylo the following functions:

distM = DistanceCalculator('ident').get_distance(my_aligned_sequences)
tree = DistanceTreeConstructor().nj(distM)

However, I would like to compare the sequences using the Kimura 2-parameters ("K80") model of DNA evolution.

I know that in R the dist.dna {ape} function allows to do this, but does anyone know a function in Python that do this ?

Thank you in advance
