BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that RNA secondary structure, a planar structure formed by paired bases, plays diverse vital roles in fundamental life activities and complex diseases. RNA secondary structure profile can record whether each base is pai...
BACKGROUND: Most transcription factors (TFs) compete with nucleosomes to gain access to their cognate binding sites. Recent studies have identified several TF-nucleosome interaction modes including end binding (EB), oriented binding, periodic binding...
Accurate prediction of peptide binding affinity to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins has the potential to design better therapeutic vaccines. Previous work has shown that pan-specific prediction algorithms can achieve better predict...
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) is highly participated in regulating diabetes mellitus (DM), and inhibitors of DPP4 may act as potential DM drugs. Therefore, we performed a novel artificial intelligence (AI) protocol to screen and validate the potentia...
Interactions with RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are integral to RNA function and cellular regulation, and dynamically reflect specific cellular conditions. However, presently available tools for predicting RBP-RNA interactions employ RNA sequence and/o...
N6-methyladenine (6mA) is an important DNA modification form associated with a wide range of biological processes. Identifying accurately 6mA sites on a genomic scale is crucial for under-standing of 6mA's biological functions. However, the existing ...
Deep learning has emerged as a revolutionary technology for protein residue-residue contact prediction since the 2012 CASP10 competition. Considerable advancements in the predictive power of the deep learning-based contact predictions have been achie...
Cysteinyl leukotrienes 1 (CysLT1) receptor is a promising drug target for rhinitis or other allergic diseases. In our study, we built classification models to predict bioactivities of CysLT1 receptor antagonists. We built a dataset with 503 CysLT1 re...
