Growing evidence illustrates the shortcomings on the current understanding of the full complexity of the proteome. Previously overlooked small open reading frames (sORFs) and their encoded microproteins have filled important gaps, exerting their func...
Significant progress has been made in the past few years on the computational identification of biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) that encode ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs). This is done by identifying both...
Nervous system function requires intracellular transport of channels, receptors, mRNAs, and other cargo throughout complex neuronal morphologies. Local signals such as synaptic input can regulate cargo trafficking, motivating the leading conceptual m...
Machine learning (ML) tools have revolutionized protein structure prediction, engineering, and design, but the best ML tool is only as good as the training data it learns from. To obtain high-quality structural or functional data, protein purificatio...
Protein synthesis in natural cells involves intricate interactions between chemical environments, protein-protein interactions, and protein machinery. Replicating such interactions in artificial and cell-free environments can control the precision of...
Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, is a fundamental biological process with implications for both physiological functions and pathological conditions. While the transcriptional regulation of angiogenesis, mediated by factors such as HI...
Accurate annotation of coding regions in RNAs is essential for understanding gene translation. We developed a deep neural network to directly predict and analyze translation initiation and termination sites from RNA sequences. Trained with human tran...

Proteins are the basic building blocks of life. Studying the protein expression mechanism is essential for understanding the cellular organization principles and the development of biotechnology. Protein expression, involving transcription, translati...
Species-specific differences in protein translation can affect the design of protein-based drugs. Consequently, efficient expression of recombinant proteins often requires codon optimization. Publicly available optimization tools do not always result...
Ribosome profiling (Ribo-seq) provides transcriptome-wide insights into protein synthesis dynamics, yet its analysis poses challenges, particularly for nonbioinformatics researchers. Large language model-based chatbots offer promising solutions by le...
