Motivation: Protein-ligand affinity prediction is an important part of structure-based drug design. It includes molecular docking and affinity prediction. Although molecular dynamics can predict affinity with high accuracy at present, it is not suitable for large-scale virtual screening. The existing affinity prediction and evaluation functions based on deep learning mostly rely on experimentally-determined conformations. Results: We build a predictive model of protein-ligand affinity through the ResNet neural network with added attention mechanism. The resulting ResAtom-Score model achieves Pearsons correlation coefficient R = 0.833 on the CASF-2016 benchmark test set. At the same time, we evaluated the performance of a variety of existing scoring functions in combination with ResAtom-Score in the absence of experimentally-determined conformations. The results show that the use of {Delta}VinaRF20 in combination with ResAtom-Score can achieve affinity prediction close to scoring functions in the presence of experimentally-determined conformations. These results suggest that ResAtom system may be used for in silico screening of small molecule ligands with target proteins in the future. Availability: https://github.com/wyji001/ResAtom

There is great interest to develop artificial intelligence-based protein-ligand affinity models due to their immense applications in drug discovery. In this paper, PointNet and PointTransformer, two pointwise multi-layer perceptrons have been applied for protein-ligand affinity prediction for the first time. Three-dimensional point clouds could be rapidly generated from the data sets in PDBbind-2016, which contain 3 772 and 11 327 individual point clouds derived from the refined or/and general sets, respectively. These point clouds were used to train PointNet or PointTransformer, resulting in protein-ligand affinity prediction models with Pearson correlation coefficients R = 0.831 or 0.859 from the larger point clouds respectively, based on the CASF-2016 benchmark test. The analysis of the parameters suggests that the two deep learning models were capable to learn many interactions between proteins and their ligands, and these key atoms for the interaction could be visualized in point clouds. The protein-ligand interaction features learned by PointTransformer could be further adapted for the XGBoost-based machine learning algorithm, resulting in prediction models with an average Rp of 0.831, which is on par with the state-of-the-art machine learning models based on PDBbind database. These results suggest that point clouds derived from the PDBbind datasets are useful to evaluate the performance of 3D point clouds-centered deep learning algorithms, which could learn critical protein-ligand interactions from natural evolution or medicinal chemistry and have wide applications in studying protein-ligand interactions.
The cornerstone of computational drug design is the calculation of binding affinity between two biological counterparts, especially a chemical compound, i.e., a ligand, and a protein. Predicting the strength of protein-ligand binding with reasonable accuracy is critical for drug discovery. In this paper, we propose a data-driven framework named DeepAtom to accurately predict the protein-ligand binding affinity. With 3D Convolutional Neural Network (3D-CNN) architecture, DeepAtom could automatically extract binding related atomic interaction patterns from the voxelized complex structure. Compared with the other CNN based approaches, our light-weight model design effectively improves the model representational capacity, even with the limited available training data. With validation experiments on the PDBbind v.2016 benchmark and the independent Astex Diverse Set, we demonstrate that the less feature engineering dependent DeepAtom approach consistently outperforms the other state-of-the-art scoring methods. We also compile and propose a new benchmark dataset to further improve the model performances. With the new dataset as training input, DeepAtom achieves Pearsons R=0.83 and RMSE=1.23 pK units on the PDBbind v.2016 core set. The promising results demonstrate that DeepAtom models can be potentially adopted in computational drug development protocols such as molecular docking and virtual screening.
The knowledge of potentially druggable binding sites on proteins is an important preliminary step towards the discovery of novel drugs. The computational prediction of such areas can be boosted by following the recent major advances in the deep learn ing field and by exploiting the increasing availability of proper data. In this paper, a novel computational method for the prediction of potential binding sites is proposed, called DeepSurf. DeepSurf combines a surface-based representation, where a number of 3D voxelized grids are placed on the proteins surface, with state-of-the-art deep learning architectures. After being trained on the large database of scPDB, DeepSurf demonstrates superior results on three diverse testing datasets, by surpassing all its main deep learning-based competitors, while attaining competitive performance to a set of traditional non-data-driven approaches.

Recently exciting progress has been made on protein contact prediction, but the predicted contacts for proteins without many sequence homologs is still of low quality and not very useful for de novo structure prediction. This paper presents a new dee p learning method that predicts contacts by integrating both evolutionary coupling (EC) and sequence conservation information through an ultra-deep neural network formed by two deep residual networks. This deep neural network allows us to model very complex sequence-contact relationship as well as long-range inter-contact correlation. Our method greatly outperforms existing contact prediction methods and leads to much more accurate contact-assisted protein folding. Tested on three datasets of 579 proteins, the average top L long-range prediction accuracy obtained our method, the representative EC method CCMpred and the CASP11 winner MetaPSICOV is 0.47, 0.21 and 0.30, respectively; the average top L/10 long-range accuracy of our method, CCMpred and MetaPSICOV is 0.77, 0.47 and 0.59, respectively. Ab initio folding using our predicted contacts as restraints can yield correct folds (i.e., TMscore>0.6) for 203 test proteins, while that using MetaPSICOV- and CCMpred-predicted contacts can do so for only 79 and 62 proteins, respectively. Further, our contact-assisted models have much better quality than template-based models. Using our predicted contacts as restraints, we can (ab initio) fold 208 of the 398 membrane proteins with TMscore>0.5. By contrast, when the training proteins of our method are used as templates, homology modeling can only do so for 10 of them. One interesting finding is that even if we do not train our prediction models with any membrane proteins, our method works very well on membrane protein prediction. Finally, in recent blind CAMEO benchmark our method successfully folded 5 test proteins with a novel fold.
Protein-RNA interactions are of vital importance to a variety of cellular activities. Both experimental and computational techniques have been developed to study the interactions. Due to the limitation of the previous database, especially the lack of protein structure data, most of the existing computational methods rely heavily on the sequence data, with only a small portion of the methods utilizing the structural information. Recently, AlphaFold has revolutionized the entire protein and biology field. Foreseeably, the protein-RNA interaction prediction will also be promoted significantly in the upcoming years. In this work, we give a thorough review of this field, surveying both the binding site and binding preference prediction problems and covering the commonly used datasets, features, and models. We also point out the potential challenges and opportunities in this field. This survey summarizes the development of the RBP-RNA interaction field in the past and foresees its future development in the post-AlphaFold era.
