Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI) is an essential tool in neuro-science, providing non-invasive insights into brain microstructure. However, obtaining accurate maps demands long acquisitions, due to oversampling of the parameter sp...
Functional RNAs perform diverse catalytic roles, yet natural sequences represent only a narrow subset of what is possible. Rediscovering such activities requires exploring functional sequence diversity beyond natural RNAs. We introduce a hybrid gener...
Behavioral biologists, from neuroscientists to ethologists, rely on observation and scoring of behavior. In the past decade, numerous methods have emerged to automate this scoring through machine learning approaches. Yet, these methods are typically ...
Eukaryotes detect biomolecules through surface-localized receptors, key signaling components. A subset of receptors survey for pathogens, induce immunity, and restrict pathogen growth. Comparative genomics of both hosts and pathogens has unveiled vas...
Casanovo is a state-of-the-art deep learning model for de novo peptide sequencing from mass spectrometry proteomics data. Here we report on a series of enhancements to Casanovo, aimed at improving the interpretability of the scores assigned to predic...
Bridging the gap between sensory input and behavioral output remains a central challenge in neuroscience. In Drosophila, the seemingly simple behavior of heat avoidance reflects a surprisingly intricate interplay between sensory processing and rapid ...
Intrinsically disordered proteins or regions (IDPs/IDRs) adopt diverse binding modes with different partners, from coupled-folding-and-binding, to fuzzy binding, to fully-disordered binding. Characterizing IDR interfaces is challenging experimentally...
Complex gene regulatory networks (GRNs) underlie most disease processes, and understanding disease-specific network structures and dynamics is crucial for developing effective treatments. Yet, literature-based analyses of GRNs often treat gene regula...
We introduce a flexible framework for antibody sequence design that combines an infilling language model with reinforcement learning to optimize functional properties. Our approach leverages a pretrained infilling language model to generate specific ...
Most in-silico protein characterisation tools focus on only one aspect of protein function, forcing researchers to use multiple models or to bypass computational checks. Here we introduce AstraROLE2 and AstraSUIT2, two transformer-based, multi-task a...
