Protein-peptide interactions play an important role in major cellular processes, and are associated with several human diseases. To understand and potentially regulate these cellular function and diseases it is important to know the molecular details...
Viruses are worldwide pathogens with a high impact on the human population. Despite the constant efforts to fight viral infections, there is a need to discover and design new drug candidates. Antiviral peptides are molecules with confirmed activity a...

Accurate force fields are crucial for molecular dynamics investigation of complex biological systems. Building accurate protein force fields from quantum mechanical (QM) calculations is challenging due to the complexity of proteins and high computati...
BACKGROUND: To further our understanding of immunopeptidomics, improved tools are needed to identify peptides presented by major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I). Many existing tools are limited by their reliance upon chemical affinity data...
Increasing reports of infectious diseases worldwide have become a global concern in recent times. Depleted antibiotic pipelines, rapid and complex cases of antimicrobial resistance, and emergence and re-emergence of infectious disease have necessitat...
We present DeepNovo-DIA, a de novo peptide-sequencing method for data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry data. We use neural networks to capture precursor and fragment ions across m/z, retention-time, and intensity dimensions. They are t...
In this work, a novel and sensitive photoelectrochemical (PEC) strategy was designed for protein kinase A (PKA) detection, comprising carbon microsphere (CMS) modified ITO electrode, TiO as the phosphate group recognition material and graphite-carbon...
The discovery of peptide substrates for enzymes with exclusive, selective activities is a central goal in chemical biology. In this paper, we develop a hybrid computational and biochemical method to rapidly optimize peptides for specific, orthogonal ...
The RAW264.7 cell model was employed to screen immunomodulatory selenium-containing peptides from selenium-enriched rice protein hydrolysates (SPHs). Moreover, the selenium-containing peptides of high-activity protein hydrolysates were purified by Se...
The accuracy of peptide retention time (RT) prediction model in liquid chromatography (LC) is still not sufficient for wider implementation in proteomics practice. Herein, we propose deep learning as an ideal tool to considerably improve this predict...
