Data-independent acquisition (DIA) is an emerging technology for quantitative proteomic analysis of large cohorts of samples. However, sample-specific spectral libraries built by data-dependent acquisition (DDA) experiments are required prior to DIA ...
Designing protein sequences that fold to a given three-dimensional (3D) structure has long been a challenging problem in computational structural biology with significant theoretical and practical implications. In this study, we first formulated this...
Accurate prediction of protein stability changes resulting from amino acid substitutions is of utmost importance in medicine to better understand which mutations are deleterious, leading to diseases, and which are neutral. Since conducting wet lab ex...
BACKGROUND: Identification of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) is crucial for understanding biological processes and investigating the cellular functions of genes. Self-interacting proteins (SIPs) are those in which more than two identical protein...
Nuclear localization signals (NLSs) are peptides that target proteins to the nucleus by binding to carrier proteins in the cytoplasm that transport their cargo across the nuclear membrane. Accurate identification of NLSs can help elucidate the functi...
BACKGROUND: Predicting protein function and structure from sequence is one important challenge for computational biology. For 26 years, most state-of-the-art approaches combined machine learning and evolutionary information. However, for some applica...

Protein associations are at the core of biological activity, and the drug-based disruption of dysfunctional associations poses a major challenge to targeted therapy. The problem becomes daunting when the structure and regulated modulation of the comp...
BACKGROUND: Protein-protein interactions(PPIs) engage in dynamic pathological and biological procedures constantly in our life. Thus, it is crucial to comprehend the PPIs thoroughly such that we are able to illuminate the disease occurrence, achieve ...
In this paper, using Word2vec, a widely-used natural language processing method, we demonstrate that protein domains may have a learnable implicit semantic "meaning" in the context of their functional contributions to the multi-domain proteins in whi...
