Accurate variant effect prediction has broad impacts on protein engineering. Recent machine learning approaches toward this end are based on representation learning, by which feature vectors are learned and generated from unlabeled sequences. However...
The superior performance of machine-learning scoring functions for docking has caused a series of debates on whether it is due to learning knowledge from training data that are similar in some sense to the test data. With a systematically revised met...
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) possesses important research value in the treatment of complex human diseases. A plethora of computational tools has been developed to predict MHC class I binders. Here, we comprehensively reviewed 27 up-to-date...
Cancerlectins, lectins linked to tumor progression, have become the focus of cancer therapy research for their carbohydrate-binding specificity. However, the specific characterization for cancerlectins involved in tumor progression is still unclear. ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have already been gradually applied to the entire drug design process, from target discovery, lead discovery, lead optimization and preclinical development to the final three phases of clinical trials. Currentl...
BACKGROUND: One of the main challenges in the early stages of drug discovery is the computational assessment of protein-ligand binding affinity. Machine learning techniques can contribute to predicting this type of interaction. We may apply these tec...

Estimating the binding affinity between proteins and drugs is very important in the application of structure-based drug design. Currently, applying machine learning to build the protein-ligand binding affinity prediction model, which is helpful to im...
MOTIVATION: Identifying the proteins that interact with drugs can reduce the cost and time of drug development. Existing computerized methods focus on integrating drug-related and protein-related data from multiple sources to predict candidate drug-t...
Molecular descriptors are essential to not only quantitative structure activity/property relationship (QSAR/QSPR) models, but also machine learning based chemical and biological data analysis. In this paper, we propose persistent spectral hypergraph ...
Knowledge of the specificity of DNA-protein binding is crucial for understanding the mechanisms of gene expression, regulation and gene therapy. In recent years, deep-learning-based methods for predicting DNA-protein binding from sequence data have a...
