Predicting improved protein conformations with a temporal deep recurrent neural network.

PloS one
Accurate protein structure prediction from amino acid sequence is still an unsolved problem. The most reliable methods centre on template based modelling. However, the accuracy of these models entirely depends on the availability of experimentally re...

Sequentially distant but structurally similar proteins exhibit fold specific patterns based on their biophysical properties.

Computational biology and chemistry
The Three-dimensional structure of a protein depends on the interaction between their amino acid residues. These interactions are in turn influenced by various biophysical properties of the amino acids. There are several examples of proteins that sha...

Linking of single-molecule experiments with molecular dynamics simulations by machine learning.

eLife
Single-molecule experiments and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are indispensable tools for investigating protein conformational dynamics. The former provide data, such as donor-acceptor distances, whereas the latter give atomistic information, ...

SPIN2: Predicting sequence profiles from protein structures using deep neural networks.

Proteins
Designing protein sequences that can fold into a given structure is a well-known inverse protein-folding problem. One important characteristic to attain for a protein design program is the ability to recover wild-type sequences given their native bac...

Automated Planning Enables Complex Protocols on Liquid-Handling Robots.

ACS synthetic biology
Robotic automation in synthetic biology is especially relevant for liquid handling to facilitate complex experiments. However, research tasks that are not highly standardized are still rarely automated in practice. Two main reasons for this are the s...

VAMPnets for deep learning of molecular kinetics.

Nature communications
There is an increasing demand for computing the relevant structures, equilibria, and long-timescale kinetics of biomolecular processes, such as protein-drug binding, from high-throughput molecular dynamics simulations. Current methods employ transfor...

Enhancing Evolutionary Couplings with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks.

Cell systems
While genes are defined by sequence, in biological systems a protein's function is largely determined by its three-dimensional structure. Evolutionary information embedded within multiple sequence alignments provides a rich source of data for inferri...

Protein structure modeling and refinement by global optimization in CASP12.

Proteins
For protein structure modeling in the CASP12 experiment, we have developed a new protocol based on our previous CASP11 approach. The global optimization method of conformational space annealing (CSA) was applied to 3 stages of modeling: multiple sequ...

Assessment of the model refinement category in CASP12.

Proteins
We here report on the assessment of the model refinement predictions submitted to the 12th Experiment on the Critical Assessment of Protein Structure Prediction (CASP12). This is the fifth refinement experiment since CASP8 (2008) and, as with the pre...

Template-based and free modeling of I-TASSER and QUARK pipelines using predicted contact maps in CASP12.

Proteins
We develop two complementary pipelines, "Zhang-Server" and "QUARK", based on I-TASSER and QUARK pipelines for template-based modeling (TBM) and free modeling (FM), and test them in the CASP12 experiment. The combination of I-TASSER and QUARK successf...
