BACKGROUND: Association and cooperation among structural domains play an important role in protein function and drug design. Despite remarkable advancements in highly accurate single-domain protein structure prediction through the collaborative effor...

Dual-Site Targeting by Peptide Inhibitors of the N-Terminal Domain of Hsp90: Mechanism and Design.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a pivotal molecular chaperone crucial in the maturation of client proteins, positioning it as a significant target for cancer therapy. However, the design of effective Hsp90 inhibitors presents substantial challenges ...

Simpler Protein Domain Identification Using Spectral Clustering.

Proteins
The decomposition of a biomolecular complex into domains is an important step to investigate biological functions and ease structure determination. A successful approach to do so is the SPECTRUS algorithm, which provides a segmentation based on spect...

Lessons from Deep Learning Structural Prediction of Multistate Multidomain Proteins-The Case Study of Coiled-Coil NOD-like Receptors.

International journal of molecular sciences
We test here the prediction capabilities of the new generation of deep learning predictors in the more challenging situation of multistate multidomain proteins by using as a case study a coiled-coil family of Nucleotide-binding Oligomerization Domain...

DPFunc: accurately predicting protein function via deep learning with domain-guided structure information.

Nature communications
Computational methods for predicting protein function are of great significance in understanding biological mechanisms and treating complex diseases. However, existing computational approaches of protein function prediction lack interpretability, mak...

Rational design of potent phosphopeptide binders to endocrine Snk PBD domain by integrating machine learning optimization, molecular dynamics simulation, binding energetics rescoring, and in vitro affinity assay.

European biophysics journal : EBJ
Human Snk is an evolutionarily conserved serine/threonine kinase essential for the maintenance of endocrine stability. The protein consists of a N-terminal catalytic domain and a C-terminal polo-box domain (PBD) that determines subcellular localizati...

Deciphering Cas9 specificity: Role of domain dynamics and RNA:DNA hybrid interactions revealed through machine learning and accelerated molecular simulations.

International journal of biological macromolecules
CRISPR/Cas9 technology is widely used for gene editing, but off-targeting still remains a major concern in therapeutic applications. Although Cas9 variants with better mismatch discrimination have been developed, they have significantly lower rates o...

Exploring structural diversity across the protein universe with The Encyclopedia of Domains.

Science (New York, N.Y.)
The AlphaFold Protein Structure Database (AFDB) contains more than 214 million predicted protein structures composed of domains, which are independently folding units found in multiple structural and functional contexts. Identifying domains can enabl...

Deep learning for discriminating non-trivial conformational changes in molecular dynamics simulations of SARS-CoV-2 spike-ACE2.

Scientific reports
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations produce a substantial volume of high-dimensional data, and traditional methods for analyzing these data pose significant computational demands. Advances in MD simulation analysis combined with deep learning-based a...

A Machine Learning Approach to Identify C Type Lectin Domain (CTLD) Containing Proteins.

The protein journal
Lectins are sugar interacting proteins which bind specific glycans reversibly and have ubiquitous presence in all forms of life. They have diverse biological functions such as cell signaling, molecular recognition, etc. C-type lectins (CTL) are a gro...
