BetaDL: A protein beta-sheet predictor utilizing a deep learning model and independent set solution.

Computers in biology and medicine
The sequence-based prediction of beta-residue contacts and beta-sheet structures contain key information for protein structure prediction. However, the determination of beta-sheet structures poses numerous challenges due to long-range beta-residue in...

Staged heterogeneity learning to identify conformational B-cell epitopes from antigen sequences.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: The broad heterogeneity of antigen-antibody interactions brings tremendous challenges to the design of a widely applicable learning algorithm to identify conformational B-cell epitopes. Besides the intrinsic heterogeneity introduced by di...

OMPcontact: An Outer Membrane Protein Inter-Barrel Residue Contact Prediction Method.

Journal of computational biology : a journal of computational molecular cell biology
In the two transmembrane protein types, outer membrane proteins (OMPs) perform diverse important biochemical functions, including substrate transport and passive nutrient uptake and intake. Hence their 3D structures are expected to reveal these funct...

Unambiguous assignment of kinked-β sheets leads to insights into molecular grammar of reversibility in biomolecular condensates.

Protein science : a publication of the Protein Society
Kinked- sheets are short peptide motifs that appear as distortions in strands and often mediate formation of reversible amyloid fibrils in prion-like proteins. Standard methods for assigning secondary structures cannot distinguish these esoteric mo...

Discovery of unconventional and nonintuitive self-assembling peptide materials using experiment-driven machine learning.

Science advances
Prediction of peptide secondary structure is challenging because of complex molecular interactions, sequence-specific behavior, and environmental factors. Traditional design strategies, based on hydrophobicity and structural propensity, can be biased...

Accurate prediction of inter-protein residue-residue contacts for homo-oligomeric protein complexes.

Briefings in bioinformatics
Protein-protein interactions play a fundamental role in all cellular processes. Therefore, determining the structure of protein-protein complexes is crucial to understand their molecular mechanisms and develop drugs targeting the protein-protein inte...

Computational Ion Channel Research: from the Application of Artificial Intelligence to Molecular Dynamics Simulations.

Cellular physiology and biochemistry : international journal of experimental cellular physiology, biochemistry, and pharmacology
Although ion channels are crucial in many physiological processes and constitute an important class of drug targets, much is still unclear about their function and possible malfunctions that lead to diseases. In recent years, computational methods ha...

Structures of the β-barrel assembly machine recognizing outer membrane protein substrates.

FASEB journal : official publication of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology
β-barrel outer membrane proteins (β-OMPs) play critical roles in nutrition acquisition, protein import/export, and other fundamental biological processes. The assembly of β-OMPs in Gram-negative bacteria is mediated by the β-barrel assembly machinery...
