Despite considerable advances obtained by applying machine learning approaches in protein-ligand affinity predictions, the incorporation of receptor flexibility has remained an important bottleneck. While ensemble docking has been used widely as a so...
Highly accurate protein structure predictions by deep neural networks such as AlphaFold2 and RoseTTAFold have tremendous impact on structural biology and beyond. Here, we show that, although these deep learning approaches have originally been develop...
The interaction between proteins and RNA is closely related to various human diseases. Computer-aided drug design can be facilitated by detecting the RNA sites that bind proteins. However, due to the aggregation of binding sites in RNA sequences, hig...
One important aspect of protein function is the binding of proteins to ligands, including small molecules, metal ions, and macromolecules such as DNA or RNA. Despite decades of experimental progress many binding sites remain obscure. Here, we propose...

Ranging from bacterial cell adhesion over viral cell entry to human innate immunity, glycan-binding proteins or lectins are abound in nature. Widely used as staining and characterization reagents in cell biology and crucial for understanding the inte...
Identifying potential associations between proteins and compounds is significant and challenging in the drug discovery process. Existing deep-learning-based methods tend to treat compounds and proteins as sequences or graphs. Inspired by the rapid de...
Molecular latent representations, derived from autoencoders (AEs), have been widely used for drug or material discovery over the past couple of years. In particular, a variety of machine learning methods based on latent representations have shown exc...
BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of protein-ligand binding affinity is important for lowering the overall cost of drug discovery in structure-based drug design. For accurate predictions, many classical scoring functions and machine learning-based meth...
