Insights into the Kinetic Partitioning Folding Dynamics of the Human Telomeric G-Quadruplex from Molecular Simulations and Machine Learning.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
The human telomeric DNA G-quadruplex follows a kinetic partitioning folding mechanism. The underlying folding landscape potentially has many minima separated by high free-energy barriers. However, using current theoretical models to characterize this...

CD-NuSS: A Web Server for the Automated Secondary Structural Characterization of the Nucleic Acids from Circular Dichroism Spectra Using Extreme Gradient Boosting Decision-Tree, Neural Network and Kohonen Algorithms.

Journal of molecular biology
Nucleic acids exhibit a repertoire of conformational preference depending on the sequence and environment. Circular dichroism (CD) is an essential and valuable tool for monitoring such secondary structural conformations of nucleic acids. Nonetheless,...

Synthesis Success Calculator: Predicting the Rapid Synthesis of DNA Fragments with Machine Learning.

ACS synthetic biology
The synthesis and assembly of long DNA fragments has greatly accelerated synthetic biology and biotechnology research. However, long turnaround times or synthesis failures create unpredictable bottlenecks in the design-build-test-learn cycle. We deve...

Predicting RNA SHAPE scores with deep learning.

RNA biology
Secondary structure prediction approaches rely typically on models of equilibrium free energies that are themselves based on in vitro physical chemistry. Recent transcriptome-wide experiments of in vivo RNA structure based on SHAPE-MaP experiments pr...

ProNA2020 predicts protein-DNA, protein-RNA, and protein-protein binding proteins and residues from sequence.

Journal of molecular biology
The intricate details of how proteins bind to proteins, DNA, and RNA are crucial for the understanding of almost all biological processes. Disease-causing sequence variants often affect binding residues. Here, we described a new, comprehensive system...

A generative model for constructing nucleic acid sequences binding to a protein.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: Interactions between protein and nucleic acid molecules are essential to a variety of cellular processes. A large amount of interaction data generated by high-throughput technologies have triggered the development of several computational...

Predicting RNA secondary structure via adaptive deep recurrent neural networks with energy-based filter.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: RNA secondary structure prediction is an important issue in structural bioinformatics, and RNA pseudoknotted secondary structure prediction represents an NP-hard problem. Recently, many different machine-learning methods, Markov models, a...

Ranking of non-coding pathogenic variants and putative essential regions of the human genome.

Nature communications
A gene is considered essential if loss of function results in loss of viability, fitness or in disease. This concept is well established for coding genes; however, non-coding regions are thought less likely to be determinants of critical functions. H...

EternaBrain: Automated RNA design through move sets and strategies from an Internet-scale RNA videogame.

PLoS computational biology
Emerging RNA-based approaches to disease detection and gene therapy require RNA sequences that fold into specific base-pairing patterns, but computational algorithms generally remain inadequate for these secondary structure design tasks. The Eterna p...

DNAPred: Accurate Identification of DNA-Binding Sites from Protein Sequence by Ensembled Hyperplane-Distance-Based Support Vector Machines.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Accurate identification of protein-DNA binding sites is significant for both understanding protein function and drug design. Machine-learning-based methods have been extensively used for the prediction of protein-DNA binding sites. However, the data ...
