Host-pathogen protein interactions (HPPIs) play vital roles in many biological processes and are directly involved in infectious diseases. With the outbreak of more frequent pandemics in the last couple of decades, such as the recent outburst of Covi...
Abnormal protein-membrane attachment is involved in deregulated cellular pathways and in disease. Therefore, the possibility to modulate protein-membrane interactions represents a new promising therapeutic strategy for peripheral membrane proteins th...

BACKGROUND: Lipocalin belongs to the calcyin family, and its sequence length is generally between 165 and 200 residues. They are mainly stable and multifunctional extracellular proteins. Lipocalin plays an important role in several stress responses a...
MOTIVATION: Identifying drug-target interactions (DTIs) is a crucial step in drug repurposing and drug discovery. Accurately identifying DTIs in silico can significantly shorten development time and reduce costs. Recently, many sequence-based methods...

Antibiotic resistance constitutes a global threat and could lead to a future pandemic. One strategy is to develop a new generation of antimicrobials. Naturally occurring antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are recognized templates and some are already in c...
In this paper, for accurate prediction of protein-protein interaction (PPI), a novel hybrid classifier is developed by combining the functional-link Siamese neural network (FSNN) with the light gradient boosting machine (LGBM) classifier. The hybrid ...
Multi-label proteins can participate in carrier transportation, enzyme catalysis, hormone regulation and other life activities. Meanwhile, they play a key role in the fields of biopharmaceuticals, gene and cell therapy. This article proposes a predic...
