Elucidating the druggability of the human proteome with eFindSite.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Identifying the viability of protein targets is one of the preliminary steps of drug discovery. Determining the ability of a protein to bind drugs in order to modulate its function, termed the druggability, requires a non-trivial amount of time and r...

Improved Method of Structure-Based Virtual Screening via Interaction-Energy-Based Learning.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Virtual screening is a promising method for obtaining novel hit compounds in drug discovery. It aims to enrich potentially active compounds from a large chemical library for further biological experiments. However, the accuracy of current virtual scr...

Prediction of aptamer-protein interacting pairs based on sparse autoencoder feature extraction and an ensemble classifier.

Mathematical biosciences
Aptamer-protein interacting pairs play important roles in physiological functions and structural characterization. Identifying aptamer-protein interacting pairs is challenging and limited, despite of the tremendous applications of aptamers. Therefore...

Predicting protein residue-residue contacts using random forests and deep networks.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: The ability to predict which pairs of amino acid residues in a protein are in contact with each other offers many advantages for various areas of research that focus on proteins. For example, contact prediction can be used to reduce the c...

Predicting protein-peptide interaction sites using distant protein complexes as structural templates.

Scientific reports
Protein-peptide interactions play an important role in major cellular processes, and are associated with several human diseases. To understand and potentially regulate these cellular function and diseases it is important to know the molecular details...

Electrochemical protein recognition based on macromolecular self-assembly of molecularly imprinted polymer: a new strategy to mimic antibody for label-free biosensing.

Journal of materials chemistry. B
A versatile strategy, based on the use of an amphiphilic copolymer as a macromonomer, was developed for the preparation of a fully synthetic MIP (molecularly imprinted polymer) sensor for protein recognition. A UV-crosslinkable copolymer poly(DMA-co-...

DESTINI: A deep-learning approach to contact-driven protein structure prediction.

Scientific reports
The amino acid sequence of a protein encodes the blueprint of its native structure. To predict the corresponding structural fold from the protein's sequence is one of most challenging problems in computational biology. In this work, we introduce DEST...

Predicting protein-ligand binding residues with deep convolutional neural networks.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Ligand-binding proteins play key roles in many biological processes. Identification of protein-ligand binding residues is important in understanding the biological functions of proteins. Existing computational methods can be roughly categ...

DeepDDG: Predicting the Stability Change of Protein Point Mutations Using Neural Networks.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Accurately predicting changes in protein stability due to mutations is important for protein engineering and for understanding the functional consequences of missense mutations in proteins. We have developed DeepDDG, a neural network-based method, fo...

PPI-Detect: A support vector machine model for sequence-based prediction of protein-protein interactions.

Journal of computational chemistry
The prediction of peptide-protein or protein-protein interactions (PPI) is a challenging task, especially if amino acid sequences are the only information available. Machine learning methods allow us to exploit the information content in PPI datasets...
