Peptide toxicity prediction is a critical task in biomedical research, influencing drug safety and therapeutic development. Traditional methods, relying on sequence similarity or handcrafted features, struggle to capture the complex relationship betw...
Rapid and reliable peptide identification techniques are essential for proteomics. High-resolution tandem mass spectrometry acquires a large amount of data through data-dependent acquisition (DDA) and data-independent acquisition (DIA), but tradition...
Allosteric regulation in proteins is a critical aspect of cellular function, influencing various biological processes through conformational or dynamic changes induced by effector molecules. Allosteric drugs possess significant therapeutic value due ...
The prevalence of Leukaemia, a malignant blood cancer that originates from hematopoietic progenitor cells, is increasing in Southeast Asia, with a worrisome fatality rate of 54%. Predicting outcomes in the early stages is vital for improving the chan...
In Arabidopsis, exposure to microbial volatile compounds promotes thiol reduction of the Cys95 residue of the photosynthetic enzyme fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (cFBP1). Although highly conserved in plants, the Cys95 function still remains unknown. We...
