BACKGROUND: The recent AI breakthrough of AlphaFold2 has revolutionized 3D protein structural modeling, proving crucial for protein design and variant effects prediction. However, intrinsically disordered regions-known for their lack of well-defined ...
Machine learning models are revolutionizing our approaches to discovering and designing bioactive peptides. These models often need protein structure awareness, as they heavily rely on sequential data. The models excel at identifying sequences of a p...
Highly accurate protein structure predictions by deep neural networks such as AlphaFold2 and RoseTTAFold have tremendous impact on structural biology and beyond. Here, we show that, although these deep learning approaches have originally been develop...
Finding optimal parameters for force fields used in molecular simulation is a challenging and time-consuming task, partly due to the difficulty of tuning multiple parameters at once. Automatic differentiation presents a general solution: run a simula...
In the process of drug discovery, identifying the interaction between the protein and the novel compound plays an important role. With the development of technology, deep learning methods have shown excellent performance in various situations. Howeve...
Antimicrobial resistance is an increasing issue in healthcare as the overuse of antibacterial agents rises during the COVID-19 pandemic. The need for new antibiotics is high, while the arsenal of available agents is decreasing, especially for the tre...
Microbial rhodopsins are photoreceptive membrane proteins, which are used as molecular tools in optogenetics. Here, a machine learning (ML)-based experimental design method is introduced for screening rhodopsins that are likely to be red-shifted from...
Protein structure prediction is a long-standing unsolved problem in molecular biology that has seen renewed interest with the recent success of deep learning with AlphaFold at CASP13. While developing and evaluating protein structure prediction metho...
Accurate prediction of protein secondary structure (alpha-helix, beta-strand and coil) is a crucial step for protein inter-residue contact prediction and ab initio tertiary structure prediction. In a previous study, we developed a deep belief network...
