Structural disorder is widespread in eukaryotic proteins and is vital for their function in diverse biological processes. It is therefore highly desirable to be able to predict the degree of order and disorder from amino acid sequence. It is, however...
Conotoxins are small peptide toxins which are rich in disulfide and have the unique diversity of sequences. It is significant to correctly identify the types of ion channel-targeted conotoxins because that they are considered as the optimal pharmacol...
Protein fold recognition plays a crucial role in discovering three-dimensional structure of proteins and protein functions. Several approaches have been employed for the prediction of protein folds. Some of these approaches are based on extracting fe...
Current sequencing methods allow for detailed samples of T cell receptors (TCR) repertoires. To determine from a repertoire whether its host had been exposed to a target, computational tools that predict TCR-epitope binding are required. Currents too...

The secondary and tertiary structure of a protein has a primary role in determining its function. Even though many folding prediction algorithms have been developed in the past decades - mainly based on the assumption that folding instructions are en...
Human Leukocyte Antigen class II (HLA-II) molecules present peptides to T lymphocytes and play an important role in adaptive immune responses. Characterizing the binding specificity of single HLA-II molecules has profound impacts for understanding ce...
There are a lot of bacteria in the environment, and Gram-positive bacteria are the most common ones. Some Gram-positive bacteria are very harmful to the human body, so it is significant to predict Gram-positive bacterial protein subcellular location....
Short (15-30 residue) chains of amino acids at the amino termini of expressed proteins known as signal peptides (SPs) specify secretion in living cells. We trained an attention-based neural network, the Transformer model, on data from all available o...
The knowledge of DNA-binding proteins would help to understand the functions of proteins better in cellular biological processes. Research on the prediction of DNA-binding proteins can promote the research of drug proteins and computer acidified drug...
