MOTIVATION: Peptides and their derivatives hold potential as therapeutic agents. The rising interest in developing peptide drugs is evidenced by increasing approval rates by the FDA of USA. To identify the most potential peptides, study on peptide-pr...
Blood-brain barrier peptides (BBBP) could significantly improve the delivery of drugs to the brain, paving the way for new treatments for central nervous system (CNS) disorders. The primary challenge in treating CNS disorders lies in the difficulty p...
The identification of neoantigens is crucial for advancing vaccines, diagnostics, and immunotherapies. Despite this importance, a fundamental question remains: how to model the presentation of neoantigens by major histocompatibility complex class I m...
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a severe psychiatric disorder that currently lacks any objective diagnostic markers. Here, we develop a deep learning approach to discover the mass spectrometric features that can discriminate MDD patients from heal...

This study leverages the DCTPep database, a comprehensive repository of cancer therapy peptides, to explore the application of machine learning in accelerating cancer research. We applied Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and K-means clustering to c...
Inflammatory responses may lead to tissue or organ damage, and proinflammatory peptides (PIPs) are signaling peptides that can induce such responses. Many diseases have been redefined as inflammatory diseases. To identify PIPs more efficiently, we ex...
MOTIVATION: Automated machine learning (AutoML) solutions can bridge the gap between new computational advances and their real-world applications by enabling experimental scientists to build their own custom models. We examine different steps in the ...
MOTIVATION: Neoantigens, derived from somatic mutations in cancer cells, can elicit anti-tumor immune responses when presented to autologous T cells by human leukocyte antigen. Identifying immunogenic neoantigens is crucial for cancer immunotherapy d...
MOTIVATION: Accurate quantitative information about protein abundance is crucial for understanding a biological system and its dynamics. Protein abundance is commonly estimated using label-free, bottom-up mass spectrometry (MS) protocols. Here, prote...
