Designing antimicrobial peptides using deep learning and molecular dynamic simulations.

Briefings in bioinformatics
With the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) offer promising options for replacing traditional antibiotics to treat bacterial infections, but discovering and designing AMPs using traditional methods is a time-cons...

Deep-ABPpred: identifying antibacterial peptides in protein sequences using bidirectional LSTM with word2vec.

Briefings in bioinformatics
The overuse of antibiotics has led to emergence of antimicrobial resistance, and as a result, antibacterial peptides (ABPs) are receiving significant attention as an alternative. Identification of effective ABPs in lab from natural sources is a cost-...

DeeplyEssential: a deep neural network for predicting essential genes in microbes.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Essential genes are those genes that are critical for the survival of an organism. The prediction of essential genes in bacteria can provide targets for the design of novel antibiotic compounds or antimicrobial strategies.

Fast Pathogen Identification Using Single-Cell Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Aerosol Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry Data and Deep Learning Methods.

Analytical chemistry
In diagnostics of infectious diseases, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) can be applied for the identification of pathogenic microorganisms. However, to achieve a trustworthy identification fr...

Predicting Gram-Positive Bacterial Protein Subcellular Location by Using Combined Features.

BioMed research international
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....

Distribution of main Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in United States and European hospitals during the SENTRY Antimicrobial Surveillance Program (2010-2016): concomitant analysis of oritavancin in vitro activity.

Journal of chemotherapy (Florence, Italy)
This study updates the distribution and trends of Gram-positive organisms causing bloodstream infections (BSIs) in the United States (US) and Europe during 2010-2016. In vitro activities of oritavancin and comparators were also evaluated. Staphylococ...

EvoStruct-Sub: An accurate Gram-positive protein subcellular localization predictor using evolutionary and structural features.

Journal of theoretical biology
Determining subcellular localization of proteins is considered as an important step towards understanding their functions. Previous studies have mainly focused solely on Gene Ontology (GO) as the main feature to tackle this problem. However, it was s...

Improving Recognition of Antimicrobial Peptides and Target Selectivity through Machine Learning and Genetic Programming.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Growing bacterial resistance to antibiotics is spurring research on utilizing naturally-occurring antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) as templates for novel drug design. While experimentalists mainly focus on systematic point mutations to measure the effec...

Predict Gram-Positive and Gram-Negative Subcellular Localization via Incorporating Evolutionary Information and Physicochemical Features Into Chou's General PseAAC.

IEEE transactions on nanobioscience
In this study, we used structural and evolutionary based features to represent the sequences of gram-positive and gram-negative subcellular localizations. To do this, we proposed a normalization method to construct a normalize Position Specific Scori...
