Insight into the Relationships Between Chemical, Protein and Functional Variables in the PBP/GOBP Family in Moths Based on Machine Learning.

International journal of molecular sciences
During their lives, insects must cope with a plethora of chemicals, of which a few will have an impact at the behavioral level. To detect these chemicals, insects use several protein families located in their main olfactory organs, the antennae. Insi...

Neural-symbolic hybrid model for myosin complex in cardiac ventriculum decodes structural bases for inheritable heart disease from its genetic encoding.

Archives of biochemistry and biophysics
BACKGROUND: Human ventriculum myosin (βmys) powers contraction sometimes in complex with myosin binding protein C (MYBPC3). The latter regulates βmys activity and impacts cardiac function. Single residue variants (SRVs) change protein sequence in βmy...

PRAF2 as a novel biomarker for breast cancer with machine learning and experimentation validation.

BMC cancer
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer (BC) is the most prevalent malignancy in women. Potential therapeutic targets for BC are of great significance. In our previous study, we found that prenylated rab acceptor 1 domain family member 2 (PRAF2) is an oncogene in ...

Evaluation of the effect of cell freshness on pyrogen detection using a serum-free monocyte-activation test.

PloS one
Pyrogens cause shock symptoms when released into the bloodstream. They are classified into two main categories: endotoxins (lipopolysaccharides [LPS]) and non-endotoxin pyrogens. The monocyte activation test (MAT) is an in vitro assay to detect pyrog...

SPOT: A machine learning model that predicts specific substrates for transport proteins.

PLoS biology
Transport proteins play a crucial role in cellular metabolism and are central to many aspects of molecular biology and medicine. Determining the function of transport proteins experimentally is challenging, as they become unstable when isolated from ...

iHBPs-VWDC: variable-length window-based dynamic connectivity approach for identifying hormone-binding proteins.

Journal of biomolecular structure & dynamics
Hormone-binding proteins (HBPs) are soluble carrier proteins that play a vital role in the growth and development of living organisms. Identifying HBPs accurately is crucial for understanding their functions. However, traditional wet lab experimental...

Serum myosin-binding protein c levels: a new marker for exclusion of preterm birth?

Turkish journal of medical sciences
BACKGROUND/AIM: To evaluate whether there is a relationship between serum myosin-binding protein C (MyBP-C) levels measured in the first trimester and the timing of delivery, and, if a relationship is detected, the potential of this relationship in d...

Discovery of a Novel DCAF1 Ligand Using a Drug-Target Interaction Prediction Model: Generalizing Machine Learning to New Drug Targets.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
DCAF1 functions as a substrate recruitment subunit for the RING-type CRL4 and the HECT family EDVP E3 ubiquitin ligases. The WDR domain of DCAF1 serves as a binding platform for substrate proteins and is also targeted by HIV and SIV lentiviral adapto...

Prediction of transport proteins from sequence information with the deep learning approach.

Computers in biology and medicine
Transport proteins (TPs) are vital to the growth and life of all living things, especially in fields of microbial pathogenesis and drug resistance of tumor cells. Accurately identifying potential TPs remains an important challenge for the advancement...
