Extracting features from protein sequences to improve deep extreme learning machine for protein fold recognition.

Journal of theoretical biology
Protein fold recognition is an important problem in bioinformatics to predict three-dimensional structure of a protein. One of the most challenging tasks in protein fold recognition problem is the extraction of efficient features from the amino-acid ...

Improving the accuracy of high-throughput protein-protein affinity prediction may require better training data.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: One goal of structural biology is to understand how a protein's 3-dimensional conformation determines its capacity to interact with potential ligands. In the case of small chemical ligands, deconstructing a static protein-ligand complex i...

Princeton_TIGRESS 2.0: High refinement consistency and net gains through support vector machines and molecular dynamics in double-blind predictions during the CASP11 experiment.

Proteins
Protein structure refinement is the challenging problem of operating on any protein structure prediction to improve its accuracy with respect to the native structure in a blind fashion. Although many approaches have been developed and tested during t...

FFLUX: Transferability of polarizable machine-learned electrostatics in peptide chains.

Journal of computational chemistry
The fully polarizable, multipolar, and atomistic force field protein FFLUX is being built from machine learning (i.e., kriging) models, each of which predicts an atomic property. Each atom of a given protein geometry needs to be assigned such a krigi...

A Hybrid Knowledge-Based and Empirical Scoring Function for Protein-Ligand Interaction: SMoG2016.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
We present the third generation of our scoring function for the prediction of protein-ligand binding free energy. This function is now a hybrid between a knowledge-based potential and an empirical function. We constructed a diversified set of ∼1000 c...

Classifying kinase conformations using a machine learning approach.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Signaling proteins such as protein kinases adopt a diverse array of conformations to respond to regulatory signals in signaling pathways. Perhaps the most fundamental conformational change of a kinase is the transition between active and ...

Rapid Design of Knowledge-Based Scoring Potentials for Enrichment of Near-Native Geometries in Protein-Protein Docking.

PloS one
Protein-protein docking protocols aim to predict the structures of protein-protein complexes based on the structure of individual partners. Docking protocols usually include several steps of sampling, clustering, refinement and re-scoring. The scorin...

Machine learning and docking models for Mycobacterium tuberculosis topoisomerase I.

Tuberculosis (Edinburgh, Scotland)
There is a shortage of compounds that are directed towards new targets apart from those targeted by the FDA approved drugs used against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Topoisomerase I (Mttopo I) is an essential mycobacterial enzyme and a promising target...

A machine learning approach for ranking clusters of docked protein-protein complexes by pairwise cluster comparison.

Proteins
Reliable identification of near-native poses of docked protein-protein complexes is still an unsolved problem. The intrinsic heterogeneity of protein-protein interactions is challenging for traditional biophysical or knowledge based potentials and th...

Accurate De Novo Prediction of Protein Contact Map by Ultra-Deep Learning Model.

PLoS computational biology
MOTIVATION: Protein contacts contain key information for the understanding of protein structure and function and thus, contact prediction from sequence is an important problem. Recently exciting progress has been made on this problem, but the predict...
