Abstract
Peptide detectability measures the relationship between the protein composition and abundance in the sample and the peptides identified during the analytical procedure. This relationship has significant implications for the fundamental tasks of proteomics. Existing methods primarily rely on a single type of feature representation, which limits their ability to capture the intricate and diverse characteristics of peptides. In response to this limitation, we introduce DeepPD, an innovative deep learning framework incorporating multi-feature representation and the information bottleneck principle (IBP) to predict peptide detectability. DeepPD extracts semantic information from peptides using evolutionary scale modeling 2 (ESM-2) and integrates sequence and evolutionary information to construct the feature space collaboratively. The IBP effectively guides the feature learning process, minimizing redundancy in the feature space. Experimental results across various datasets demonstrate that DeepPD outperforms state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, we demonstrate that DeepPD exhibits competitive generalization and transfer learning capabilities across diverse datasets and species. In conclusion, DeepPD emerges as the most effective method for predicting peptide detectability, showcasing its potential applicability to other protein sequence prediction tasks.
