Quantifying complexity in DNA structures with high resolution Atomic Force Microscopy.

Nature communications
DNA topology is essential for regulating cellular processes and maintaining genome stability, yet it is challenging to quantify due to the size and complexity of topologically constrained DNA molecules. By combining high-resolution Atomic Force Micro...

Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy and machine learning for identification of beta-lactam antibiotics resistance gene fragment in bacterial plasmid.

Analytica chimica acta
BACKGROUND: Antibiotic resistance stands as a critical medical concern, notably evident in commonly prescribed beta-lactam antibiotics. The imperative need for expeditious and precise early detection methods underscores their role in facilitating tim...

Identification of key drivers of antimicrobial resistance in using machine learning.

Canadian journal of microbiology
With antimicrobial resistance (AMR) rapidly evolving in pathogens, quick and accurate identification of genetic determinants of phenotypic resistance is essential for improving surveillance, stewardship, and clinical mitigation. Machine learning (ML)...

Synergistic Polymer Blending Informs Efficient Terpolymer Design and Machine Learning Discerns Performance Trends for pDNA Delivery.

Bioconjugate chemistry
Cationic polymers offer an alternative to viral vectors in nucleic acid delivery. However, the development of polymer vehicles capable of high transfection efficiency and minimal toxicity has remained elusive, and continued exploration of the vast de...

Data-driven learning of structure augments quantitative prediction of biological responses.

PLoS computational biology
Multi-factor screenings are commonly used in diverse applications in medicine and bioengineering, including optimizing combination drug treatments and microbiome engineering. Despite the advances in high-throughput technologies, large-scale experimen...

Neural-Like P Systems With Plasmids and Multiple Channels.

IEEE transactions on nanobioscience
Neural-like P systems with plasmids (NP P systems, in short) are a kind of distributed and parallel computing systems inspired by the activity that bacteria process DNA such as plasmids. An important biological fact is that one or more pili have exis...

Aglow: A Fluorescence Assay and Machine Learning Model to Identify Inhibitors of Intracellular Infection.

ACS infectious diseases
is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria that has for centuries caused large-scale morbidity and mortality. In recent years, the resurgence of rickettsial diseases as a major cause of pyrexias of unknown origin, bioterrorism concerns, vector movement, a...

Computing within bacteria: Programming of bacterial behavior by means of a plasmid encoding a perceptron neural network.

Bio Systems
In nature, bacteria exhibit a limited repertoire of behaviors in response to environmental changes. Synthetic biology has now opened up the possibility of programming cells or unicellular organisms in order to enable them to perform certain tasks, wh...

Enhancement of protein thermostability by three consecutive mutations using loop-walking method and machine learning.

Scientific reports
We developed a method to improve protein thermostability, "loop-walking method". Three consecutive positions in 12 loops of Burkholderia cepacia lipase were subjected to random mutagenesis to make 12 libraries. Screening allowed us to identify L7 as ...

Enhancing CRISPR-Cas9 gRNA efficiency prediction by data integration and deep learning.

Nature communications
The design of CRISPR gRNAs requires accurate on-target efficiency predictions, which demand high-quality gRNA activity data and efficient modeling. To advance, we here report on the generation of on-target gRNA activity data for 10,592 SpCas9 gRNAs. ...
