Accurate protein structure prediction from amino-acid sequences is critical to better understanding the protein function. Recent advances in this area largely benefit from more precise inter-residue distance and orientation predictions, powered by deep neural networks. However, the structure optimization procedure is still dominated by traditional tools, e.g. Rosetta, where the structure is solved via minimizing a pre-defined statistical energy function (with optional prediction-based restraints). Such energy function may not be optimal in formulating the whole conformation space of proteins. In this paper, we propose a fully-differentiable approach for protein structure optimization, guided by a data-driven generative network. This network is trained in a denoising manner, attempting to predict the correction signal from corrupted distance matrices between Ca atoms. Once the network is well trained, Langevin dynamics based sampling is adopted to gradually optimize structures from random initialization. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our EBM-Fold approach can efficiently produce high-quality decoys, compared against traditional Rosetta-based structure optimization routines.

Contact-assisted protein folding has made very good progress, but two challenges remain. One is accurate contact prediction for proteins lack of many sequence homologs and the other is that time-consuming folding simulation is often needed to predict
good 3D models from predicted contacts. We show that protein distance matrix can be predicted well by deep learning and then directly used to construct 3D models without folding simulation at all. Using distance geometry to construct 3D models from our predicted distance matrices, we successfully folded 21 of the 37 CASP12 hard targets with a median family size of 58 effective sequence homologs within 4 hours on a Linux computer of 20 CPUs. In contrast, contacts predicted by direct coupling analysis (DCA) cannot fold any of them in the absence of folding simulation and the best CASP12 group folded 11 of them by integrating predicted contacts into complex, fragment-based folding simulation. The rigorous experimental validation on 15 CASP13 targets show that among the 3 hardest targets of new fold our distance-based folding servers successfully folded 2 large ones with <150 sequence homologs while the other servers failed on all three, and that our ab initio folding server also predicted the best, high-quality 3D model for a large homology modeling target. Further experimental validation in CAMEO shows that our ab initio folding server predicted correct fold for a membrane protein of new fold with 200 residues and 229 sequence homologs while all the other servers failed. These results imply that deep learning offers an efficient and accurate solution for ab initio folding on a personal computer.
Various biological sensory systems exhibit a response to a relative change of the stimulus, often referred to as fold-change detection. In the last few years fold-change detecting mechanisms, based on transcriptional networks, have been proposed. Her
e we present fold-change detecting mechanism, based on protein-protein interactions, consisting of two interacting proteins. This mechanism, in contrast to previously proposed mechanisms, does not consume chemical energy and is not subject to transcriptional and translational noise. We show by analytical and numerical calculations, that the mechanism can have a fast, precise and efficient response for parameters that are relevant to eukaryotic cells.
We review uses of the generalized-ensemble algorithms for free-energy calculations in protein folding. Two of the well-known methods are multicanonical algorithm and replica-exchange method; the latter is also referred to as parallel tempering. We pr
esent a new generalized-ensemble algorithm that combines the merits of the two methods; it is referred to as the replica-exchange multicanonical algorithm. We also give a multidimensional extension of the replica-exchange method. Its realization as an umbrella sampling method, which we refer to as the replica-exchange umbrella sampling, is a powerful algorithm that can give free energy in wide reaction coordinate space.
Energy landscape theory describes how a full-length protein can attain its native fold after sampling only a tiny fraction of all possible structures. Although protein folding is now understood to be concomitant with synthesis on the ribosome there h
ave been few attempts to modify energy landscape theory by accounting for cotranslational folding. This paper introduces a model for cotranslational folding that leads to a natural definition of a nested energy landscape. By applying concepts drawn from submanifold differential geometry the dynamics of protein folding on the ribosome can be explored in a quantitative manner and conditions on the nested potential energy landscapes for a good cotranslational folder are obtained. A generalisation of diffusion rate theory using van Kampens technique of composite stochastic processes is then used to account for entropic contributions and the effects of variable translation rates on cotranslational folding. This stochastic approach agrees well with experimental results and Hamiltionian formalism in the deterministic limit.
Designing novel protein sequences for a desired 3D topological fold is a fundamental yet non-trivial task in protein engineering. Challenges exist due to the complex sequence--fold relationship, as well as the difficulties to capture the diversity of
the sequences (therefore structures and functions) within a fold. To overcome these challenges, we propose Fold2Seq, a novel transformer-based generative framework for designing protein sequences conditioned on a specific target fold. To model the complex sequence--structure relationship, Fold2Seq jointly learns a sequence embedding using a transformer and a fold embedding from the density of secondary structural elements in 3D voxels. On test sets with single, high-resolution and complete structure inputs for individual folds, our experiments demonstrate improved or comparable performance of Fold2Seq in terms of speed, coverage, and reliability for sequence design, when compared to existing state-of-the-art methods that include data-driven deep generative models and physics-based RosettaDesign. The unique advantages of fold-based Fold2Seq, in comparison to a structure-based deep model and RosettaDesign, become more evident on three additional real-world challenges originating from low-quality, incomplete, or ambiguous input structures.
