The diversification of the characteristic sequences of anti-cancer peptides has imposed difficulties on research. To effectively predict new anti-cancer peptides, this paper proposes a more suitable feature grouping sequence and spatial dimension-int...
Discriminating between deleterious and neutral mutations among numerous non-synonymous single nucleotide variants (nsSNVs) that may be observed through whole exome sequencing (WES) is considered a great challenge. In this regard, many machine learnin...
Microtubules are receiving enormous interest in drug discovery due to the important roles they play in cellular functions. Targeting tubulin polymerization presents an excellent opportunity for the development of anti-tubulin drugs. Drug resistance a...
BACKGROUND: Protein protein interactions (PPIs) are essential to most of the biological processes. The prediction of PPIs is beneficial to the understanding of protein functions and thus is helpful to pathological analysis, disease diagnosis and drug...

Biophysical protein-protein interactions perform dominant roles in the initiation and progression of many cancer-related pathways. A protein-protein interaction might play different roles in diverse cancer types. Hence, prioritizing the PPIs in each ...
Machine learning has been increasingly used for protein engineering. However, because the general sequence contexts they capture are not specific to the protein being engineered, the accuracy of existing machine learning algorithms is rather limited....
Glycosyltransferases (GTs) play fundamental roles in nearly all cellular processes through the biosynthesis of complex carbohydrates and glycosylation of diverse protein and small molecule substrates. The extensive structural and functional diversifi...
