Using Steady-State Kinetics to Quantitate Substrate Selectivity and Specificity: A Case Study with Two Human Transaminases.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
We examined the ability of two human cytosolic transaminases, aspartate aminotransferase (GOT1) and alanine aminotransferase (GPT), to transform their preferred substrates whilst discriminating against similar metabolites. This offers an opportunity ...

A backbone-centred energy function of neural networks for protein design.

Nature
A protein backbone structure is designable if a substantial number of amino acid sequences exist that autonomously fold into it. It has been suggested that the designability of backbones is governed mainly by side chain-independent or side chain type...

Deep learning methods for 3D structural proteome and interactome modeling.

Current opinion in structural biology
Bolstered by recent methodological and hardware advances, deep learning has increasingly been applied to biological problems and structural proteomics. Such approaches have achieved remarkable improvements over traditional machine learning methods in...

Has DeepMind's AlphaFold solved the protein folding problem?

BioTechniques
DeepMind released AlphaFold 2.0 in 2020, an artificial intelligence model to predict the structure of proteins, which could mean that proteins can be characterized without the need for tedious and costly lab analysis.

ProALIGN: Directly Learning Alignments for Protein Structure Prediction via Exploiting Context-Specific Alignment Motifs.

Journal of computational biology : a journal of computational molecular cell biology
Template-based modeling (TBM), including homology modeling and protein threading, is one of the most reliable techniques for protein structure prediction. It predicts protein structure by building an alignment between the query sequence under predict...

Novel Big Data-Driven Machine Learning Models for Drug Discovery Application.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
Most contemporary drug discovery projects start with a 'hit discovery' phase where small chemicals are identified that have the capacity to interact, in a chemical sense, with a protein target involved in a given disease. To assist and accelerate thi...

Ensemble learning from ensemble docking: revisiting the optimum ensemble size problem.

Scientific reports
Despite considerable advances obtained by applying machine learning approaches in protein-ligand affinity predictions, the incorporation of receptor flexibility has remained an important bottleneck. While ensemble docking has been used widely as a so...

Computational identification of 4-carboxyglutamate sites to supplement physiological studies using deep learning.

Scientific reports
In biological systems, Glutamic acid is a crucial amino acid which is used in protein biosynthesis. Carboxylation of glutamic acid is a significant post-translational modification which plays important role in blood coagulation by activating prothrom...

Protein structures for all.

Science (New York, N.Y.)
AI-powered predictions reveal the shapes of proteins by the thousands.

Protein embeddings and deep learning predict binding residues for various ligand classes.

Scientific reports
One important aspect of protein function is the binding of proteins to ligands, including small molecules, metal ions, and macromolecules such as DNA or RNA. Despite decades of experimental progress many binding sites remain obscure. Here, we propose...
