The 2.5-MDa 26S proteasome maintains proteostasis and regulates myriad cellular processes. How polyubiquitylated substrate interactions regulate proteasome activity is not understood. Here we introduce a deep manifold learning framework, named AlphaCryo4D, which enables atomic-level cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) reconstructions of nonequilibrium conformational continuum and reconstitutes hidden dynamics of proteasome autoregulation in the act of substrate degradation. AlphaCryo4D integrates 3D deep residual learning with manifold embedding of free-energy landscapes, which directs 3D clustering via an energy-based particle-voting algorithm. In blind assessments using simulated heterogeneous cryo-EM datasets, AlphaCryo4D achieved 3D classification accuracy three times that of conventional method and reconstructed continuous conformational changes of a 130-kDa protein at sub-3-angstrom resolution. By using AlphaCryo4D to analyze a single experimental cryo-EM dataset, we identified 64 conformers of the substrate-bound human 26S proteasome, revealing conformational entanglement of two regulatory particles in the doubly capped holoenzymes and their energetic differences with singly capped ones. Novel ubiquitin-binding sites are discovered on the RPN2, RPN10 and Alpha5 subunits to remodel polyubiquitin chains for deubiquitylation and recycle. Importantly, AlphaCryo4D choreographs single-nucleotide-exchange dynamics of proteasomal AAA-ATPase motor during translocation initiation, which upregulates proteolytic activity by allosterically promoting nucleophilic attack. Our systemic analysis illuminates a grand hierarchical allostery for proteasome autoregulation.

The conformational kinetics of enzymes can be reliably revealed when they are governed by Markovian dynamics. Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are appropriate especially in the case of conformational states that are hardly distinguishable. However, the evolution of the conformational states of proteins mostly shows non-Markovian behavior, recognizable by non-monoexponential state dwell time histograms. The application of a Hidden Markov Model technique to a cyclic system demonstrating semi-Markovian dynamics is presented in this paper and the required extension of the model design is discussed. As standard ranking criteria of models cannot deal with these systems properly, a new approach is proposed considering the shape of the dwell time histograms. We observed the rotational kinetics of a single F1-ATPase alpha3beta3gamma sub-complex over six orders of magnitude of different ATP to ADP and Pi concentration ratios, and established a general model describing the kinetics for the entire range of concentrations. The HMM extension described here is applicable in general to the accurate analysis of protein dynamics.
Forecasting the evolution of contagion dynamics is still an open problem to which mechanistic models only offer a partial answer. To remain mathematically or computationally tractable, these models must rely on simplifying assumptions, thereby limiting the quantitative accuracy of their predictions and the complexity of the dynamics they can model. Here, we propose a complementary approach based on deep learning where the effective local mechanisms governing a dynamic on a network are learned from time series data. Our graph neural network architecture makes very few assumptions about the dynamics, and we demonstrate its accuracy using different contagion dynamics of increasing complexity. By allowing simulations on arbitrary network structures, our approach makes it possible to explore the properties of the learned dynamics beyond the training data. Finally, we illustrate the applicability of our approach using real data of the COVID-19 outbreak in Spain. Our results demonstrate how deep learning offers a new and complementary perspective to build effective models of contagion dynamics on networks.
Multi-modal brain functional connectivity (FC) data have shown great potential for providing insights into individual variations in behavioral and cognitive traits. The joint learning of multi-modal imaging data can utilize the intrinsic association, and thus can boost the learning performance. Although several multi-task based learning models have already been proposed by viewing the feature learning on each modality as one task, most of them ignore the geometric structure information inherent in the modalities, which may play an important role in extracting discriminative features. In this paper, we propose a new manifold regularized multi-task learning model by simultaneously considering between-subject and between-modality relationships. Besides employing a group-sparsity regularizer to jointly select a few common features across multiple tasks (modalities), we design a novel manifold regularizer to preserve the structure information both within and between modalities in our model. This will make our model more adaptive for realistic data analysis. Our model is then validated on the Philadelphia Neurodevelopmental Cohort dataset, where we regard our modalities as functional MRI (fMRI) data collected under two paradigms. Specifically, we conduct experimental studies on fMRI based FC network data in two task conditions for intelligence quotient (IQ) prediction. The results demonstrate that our proposed model can not only achieve improved prediction performance, but also yield a set of IQ-relevant biomarkers.
The efficacy of a drug depends on its binding affinity to the therapeutic target and pharmacokinetics. Deep learning (DL) has demonstrated remarkable progress in predicting drug efficacy. We develop MolDesigner, a human-in-the-loop web user-interface (UI), to assist drug developers leverage DL predictions to design more effective drugs. A developer can draw a drug molecule in the interface. In the backend, more than 17 state-of-the-art DL models generate predictions on important indices that are crucial for a drugs efficacy. Based on these predictions, drug developers can edit the drug molecule and reiterate until satisfaction. MolDesigner can make predictions in real-time with a latency of less than a second.
Intratumor heterogeneity is often manifested by vascular compartments with distinct pharmacokinetics that cannot be resolved directly by in vivo dynamic imaging. We developed tissue-specific compartment modeling (TSCM), an unsupervised computational method of deconvolving dynamic imaging series from heterogeneous tumors that can improve vascular phenotyping in many biological contexts. Applying TSCM to dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI of breast cancers revealed characteristic intratumor vascular heterogeneity and therapeutic responses that were otherwise undetectable.
