Catalytic constant (Kcat) is to describe the efficiency of catalyzing reactions. The Kcat value of an enzyme-substrate pair indicates the rate an enzyme converts saturated substrates into product during the catalytic process. However, it is challengi...
Engineering enzyme-substrate binding pockets is the most efficient approach for modifying catalytic activity, but is limited if the substrate binding sites are indistinct. Here, we developed a 3D convolutional neural network for predicting protein-li...
Proteases contribute to a broad spectrum of cellular functions. Given a relatively limited amount of experimental data, developing accurate sequence-based predictors of substrate cleavage sites facilitates a better understanding of protease functions...

Most proteins undergo some form of modification after translation, and phosphorylation is one of the most relevant and ubiquitous post-translational modifications. The succession of protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation catalyzed by protein k...
MOTIVATION: Proteases are enzymes that cleave target substrate proteins by catalyzing the hydrolysis of peptide bonds between specific amino acids. While the functional proteolysis regulated by proteases plays a central role in the 'life and death' c...
BACKGROUND: Determination or prediction of the Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion (ADME) properties of drug candidates and drug-induced toxicity plays crucial roles in drug discovery and development. Metabolism is one of the most com...

EGFR (ErbB-1/HER1) kinase plays an important role in cancer therapy. Two classification models were established to predict whether a compound is an inhibitor or a decoy of human EGFR (ErbR-1) by using Kohonen's self-organizing map (SOM) and support v...

Identifying adenylation domains (A-domains) and their substrate specificity can aid the detection of nonribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS) at genome/proteome level and allow inferring the structure of oligopeptides with relevant biological activiti...
