Multi-Omics Analysis of the virulence factors and designing of next-generation multi-epitopes Vaccines against Rickettsia prowazekii: a computer-aided vaccine designing approach.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Rickettsia is a genus of bacteria that are obligate intracellular parasites and are responsible for the febrile diseases known collectively as Rickettsioses. The emergence of antibiotic resistance is an escalating concern and thus developing a vaccin...

Contrastive-learning of language embedding and biological features for cross modality encoding and effector prediction.

Nature communications
Identifying and characterizing virulence proteins secreted by Gram-negative bacteria are fundamental for deciphering microbial pathogenicity as well as aiding the development of therapeutic strategies. Effector predictors utilizing pre-trained protei...

Protein interactions in human pathogens revealed through deep learning.

Nature microbiology
Identification of bacterial protein-protein interactions and predicting the structures of these complexes could aid in the understanding of pathogenicity mechanisms and developing treatments for infectious diseases. Here we developed RoseTTAFold2-Lit...

DTVF: A User-Friendly Tool for Virulence Factor Prediction Based on ProtT5 and Deep Transfer Learning Models.

Genes
Virulencefactors (VFs) are key molecules that enable pathogens to evade the immune systems of the host. These factors are crucial for revealing the pathogenic processes of microbes and drug discovery. Identification of virulence factors in microbes b...

Protein function annotation and virulence factor identification of Klebsiella pneumoniae genome by multiple machine learning models.

Microbial pathogenesis
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a type of Gram-negative bacterium which can cause a range of infections in human. In recent years, an increasing number of strains of K. pneumoniae resistant to multiple antibiotics have emerged, posing a significant threat t...

Comprehensive Review on the Virulence Factors and Therapeutic Strategies with the Aid of Artificial Intelligence against Mucormycosis.

ACS infectious diseases
Mucormycosis, a rare but deadly fungal infection, was an epidemic during the COVID-19 pandemic. The rise in cases (COVID-19-associated mucormycosis, CAM) is attributed to excessive steroid and antibiotic use, poor hospital hygiene, and crowded settin...

inhibition of biofilm and virulence factor production in azole-resistant strains of isolated from diabetic foot by stabilized tin (IV) oxide nanoparticles.

Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology
The advent of nanotechnology has been instrumental in the development of new drugs with novel targets. Recently, metallic nanoparticles have emerged as potential candidates to combat the threat of drug-resistant infections. Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs...

Phenotype-Based Threat Assessment.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Bacterial pathogen identification, which is critical for human health, has historically relied on culturing organisms from clinical specimens. More recently, the application of machine learning (ML) to whole-genome sequences (WGSs) has facilitated pa...

Identification of antibiotic resistance and virulence-encoding factors in Klebsiella pneumoniae by Raman spectroscopy and deep learning.

Microbial biotechnology
Klebsiella pneumoniae has become the number one bacterial pathogen that causes high mortality in clinical settings worldwide. Clinical K. pneumoniae strains with carbapenem resistance and/or hypervirulent phenotypes cause higher mortality comparing w...

Dual-Organ Transcriptomic Analysis of Rainbow Trout Infected With Through Co-Expression and Machine Learning.

Frontiers in immunology
is a major pathogen that causes a high mortality rate in trout farms. However, systemic responses to the pathogen and its interactions with multiple organs during the course of infection have not been well described. In this study, dual-organ transc...
