Computationally designed proteins mimic antibody immune evasion in viral evolution.

Immunity
Recurrent waves of viral infection necessitate vaccines and therapeutics that remain effective against emerging viruses. Our ability to evaluate interventions is currently limited to assessments against past or circulating variants, which likely diff...

Using Machine Learning to Analyze Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Biomolecules.

The journal of physical chemistry. B
Machine learning (ML) techniques have become powerful tools in both industrial and academic settings. Their ability to facilitate analysis of complex data and generation of predictive insights is transforming how scientific problems are approached ac...

Using minor variant genomes and machine learning to study the genome biology of SARS-CoV-2 over time.

Nucleic acids research
In infected individuals, viruses are present as a population consisting of dominant and minor variant genomes. Most databases contain information on the dominant genome sequence. Since the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 in late 2019, variants have been sele...

Forecasting dominance of SARS-CoV-2 lineages by anomaly detection using deep AutoEncoders.

Briefings in bioinformatics
The COVID-19 pandemic is marked by the successive emergence of new SARS-CoV-2 variants, lineages, and sublineages that outcompete earlier strains, largely due to factors like increased transmissibility and immune escape. We propose DeepAutoCoV, an un...

Protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid binding site prediction via interpretable hierarchical geometric deep learning.

GigaScience
Identification of protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid binding sites provides insights into biological processes related to protein functions and technical guidance for disease diagnosis and drug design. However, accurate predictions by computati...

Unraveling viral drug targets: a deep learning-based approach for the identification of potential binding sites.

Briefings in bioinformatics
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has spurred a wide range of approaches to control and combat the disease. However, selecting an effective antiviral drug target remains a time-consuming challenge. Computational methods offer a promisi...

HLAncPred: a method for predicting promiscuous non-classical HLA binding sites.

Briefings in bioinformatics
Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) regulate various innate and adaptive immune responses and play a crucial immunomodulatory role. Recent studies revealed that non-classical HLA-(HLA-E & HLA-G) based immunotherapies have many advantages over traditional ...

Deep learning based on biologically interpretable genome representation predicts two types of human adaptation of SARS-CoV-2 variants.

Briefings in bioinformatics
Explosively emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants challenge current nomenclature schemes based on genetic diversity and biological significance. Genomic composition-based machine learning methods have recently performed well in identifying phenotype-genotype ...

Computational prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on the binding affinity between SARS-CoV-2 spike RBD and human ACE2.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
The association of the receptor binding domain (RBD) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein with human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) represents the first required step for cellular entry. SARS-CoV-2 ha...

Vaxign2: the second generation of the first Web-based vaccine design program using reverse vaccinology and machine learning.

Nucleic acids research
Vaccination is one of the most significant inventions in medicine. Reverse vaccinology (RV) is a state-of-the-art technique to predict vaccine candidates from pathogen's genome(s). To promote vaccine development, we updated Vaxign2, the first web-bas...
