Identifying druggable binding sites on proteins is an important and challenging problem, particularly for cryptic, allosteric binding sites that may not be obvious from X-ray, cryo-EM, or predicted structures. The Site-Identification by Ligand Compet...
Allosteric drugs offer a new avenue for modern drug design. However, the identification of cryptic allosteric sites presents a formidable challenge. Following the allostery nature of residue-driven conformation transition, we propose a state-of-the-a...
Scarcity of structural and evolutionary information on protein complexes poses a challenge to deep learning-based structure modelling. We integrate experimental distance restraints obtained by crosslinking mass spectrometry (MS) into AlphaFold-Multim...

Protein dynamics play a crucial role in biological function, encompassing motions ranging from atomic vibrations to large-scale conformational changes. Recent advancements in experimental techniques, computational methods, and artificial intelligence...
We here introduce Ensemble Optimizer (EnOpt), a machine-learning tool to improve the accuracy and interpretability of ensemble virtual screening (VS). Ensemble VS is an established method for predicting protein/small-molecule (ligand) binding. Unlike...
BACKGROUND: Recently, the process of evolution information and the deep learning network has promoted the improvement of protein contact prediction methods. Nevertheless, still remain some bottleneck: (1) One of the bottlenecks is the prediction of o...
Owing to recent advancements in cryo-electron microscopy, voltage-gated ion channels have gained a greater comprehension of their structural characteristics. However, a significant enigma remains unsolved for a large majority of these channels: their...
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play a crucial role in cell function by transducing signals from the extracellular environment to the inside of the cell. They mediate the effects of various stimuli, including hormones, neurotransmitters, ions, ph...
