Characterizing geometric and topological properties of protein structures encompassing surface pockets, interior cavities, and cross channels is important for understanding their functions. Our knowledge of protein structures has been greatly advance...
MOTIVATION: Identifying the binding sites of antibodies is essential for developing vaccines and synthetic antibodies. In this article, we investigate the optimal representation for predicting the binding sites in the two molecules and emphasize the ...

Knotted proteins, although scarce, are crucial structural components of certain protein families, and their roles continue to be a topic of intense research. Capitalizing on the vast collection of protein structure predictions offered by AlphaFold (A...
Methods from artificial intelligence (AI) trained on large datasets of sequences and structures can now "write" proteins with new shapes and molecular functions de novo, without starting from proteins found in nature. In this Perspective, I will disc...

Deep learning methods for protein sequence design focus on modeling and sampling the many- dimensional distribution of amino acid sequences conditioned on the backbone structure. To produce physically foldable sequences, inter-residue couplings need ...
Understanding the interactions between a ligand and its molecular target is crucial in guiding the optimization of molecules for any drug design workflow. Multiple experimental and computational methods have been developed to better understand these...
