TwinCons: Conservation score for uncovering deep sequence similarity and divergence.

PLoS computational biology
We have developed the program TwinCons, to detect noisy signals of deep ancestry of proteins or nucleic acids. As input, the program uses a composite alignment containing pre-defined groups, and mathematically determines a 'cost' of transforming one ...

PIC-Me: paralogs and isoforms classifier based on machine-learning approaches.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Paralogs formed through gene duplication and isoforms formed through alternative splicing have been important processes for increasing protein diversity and maintaining cellular homeostasis. Despite their recognized importance and the adv...

Mapping the glycosyltransferase fold landscape using interpretable deep learning.

Nature communications
Glycosyltransferases (GTs) play fundamental roles in nearly all cellular processes through the biosynthesis of complex carbohydrates and glycosylation of diverse protein and small molecule substrates. The extensive structural and functional diversifi...

Development and validation of multiple machine learning algorithms for the classification of G-protein-coupled receptors using molecular evolution model-based feature extraction strategy.

Amino acids
Machine learning is one of the most potential ways to realize the function prediction of the incremental large-scale G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR). Prior research reveals that the key to determining the overall classification accuracy of GPCR is...

Protein inter-residue contact and distance prediction by coupling complementary coevolution features with deep residual networks in CASP14.

Proteins
This article reports and analyzes the results of protein contact and distance prediction by our methods in the 14th Critical Assessment of techniques for protein Structure Prediction (CASP14). A new deep learning-based contact/distance predictor was ...

Protein structure prediction using deep learning distance and hydrogen-bonding restraints in CASP14.

Proteins
In this article, we report 3D structure prediction results by two of our best server groups ("Zhang-Server" and "QUARK") in CASP14. These two servers were built based on the D-I-TASSER and D-QUARK algorithms, which integrated four newly developed com...

Improving protein tertiary structure prediction by deep learning and distance prediction in CASP14.

Proteins
Substantial progresses in protein structure prediction have been made by utilizing deep-learning and residue-residue distance prediction since CASP13. Inspired by the advances, we improve our CASP14 MULTICOM protein structure prediction system by inc...

Highly accurate protein structure prediction with AlphaFold.

Nature
Proteins are essential to life, and understanding their structure can facilitate a mechanistic understanding of their function. Through an enormous experimental effort, the structures of around 100,000 unique proteins have been determined, but this r...

MULTICOM2 open-source protein structure prediction system powered by deep learning and distance prediction.

Scientific reports
Protein structure prediction is an important problem in bioinformatics and has been studied for decades. However, there are still few open-source comprehensive protein structure prediction packages publicly available in the field. In this paper, we p...
