Deep-Channel uses deep neural networks to detect single-molecule events from patch-clamp data.

Communications biology
Single-molecule research techniques such as patch-clamp electrophysiology deliver unique biological insight by capturing the movement of individual proteins in real time, unobscured by whole-cell ensemble averaging. The critical first step in analysi...

DeepIon: Deep learning approach for classifying ion transporters and ion channels from membrane proteins.

Journal of computational chemistry
The movement of ions across the cell membrane is an essential for many biological processes. This study is focused on ion channels and ion transporters (pumps) as types of border guards control the incessant traffic of ions across cell membranes. Ion...

Predicting drug-target interactions using Lasso with random forest based on evolutionary information and chemical structure.

Genomics
The identification of drug-target interactions has great significance for pharmaceutical scientific research. Since traditional experimental methods identifying drug-target interactions is costly and time-consuming, the use of machine learning method...

Thermodynamic integration network approach to ion transport through protein channels: Perspectives and limits.

Journal of computational chemistry
We present a molecular dynamics simulation study of alkali metal cation transport through the double-helical and the head-to-head conformers of the gramicidin ion channel. Our approach is based on a thermodynamic integration network, which consists o...

Resonance with subthreshold oscillatory drive organizes activity and optimizes learning in neural networks.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Network oscillations across and within brain areas are critical for learning and performance of memory tasks. While a large amount of work has focused on the generation of neural oscillations, their effect on neuronal populations' spiking activity an...

Synthetic Ion Channels and DNA Logic Gates as Components of Molecular Robots.

Chemphyschem : a European journal of chemical physics and physical chemistry
A molecular robot is a next-generation biochemical machine that imitates the actions of microorganisms. It is made of biomaterials such as DNA, proteins, and lipids. Three prerequisites have been proposed for the construction of such a robot: sensors...

Machine learning to design integral membrane channelrhodopsins for efficient eukaryotic expression and plasma membrane localization.

PLoS computational biology
There is growing interest in studying and engineering integral membrane proteins (MPs) that play key roles in sensing and regulating cellular response to diverse external signals. A MP must be expressed, correctly inserted and folded in a lipid bilay...

Analytical solution of the steady membrane voltage fluctuation caused by a single ion channel.

Physical review. E
An analytical steady-state solution of the stochastic model describing the integrated dynamics of the membrane voltage and the gating of a single channel is presented. The voltage density function experiences bifurcation in the parameter space, and t...

Predicting the Types of Ion Channel-Targeted Conotoxins Based on AVC-SVM Model.

BioMed research international
The conotoxin proteins are disulfide-rich small peptides. Predicting the types of ion channel-targeted conotoxins has great value in the treatment of chronic diseases, epilepsy, and cardiovascular diseases. To solve the problem of information redunda...

Optogenetics in Silicon: A Neural Processor for Predicting Optically Active Neural Networks.

IEEE transactions on biomedical circuits and systems
We present a reconfigurable neural processor for real-time simulation and prediction of opto-neural behaviour. We combined a detailed Hodgkin-Huxley CA3 neuron integrated with a four-state Channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) model into reconfigurable silicon h...
