Understanding protein structure-function relationships is a key challenge in computational biology, with applications across the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. While it is known that protein structure directly impacts protein function, many functional prediction tasks use only protein sequence. In this work, we isolate protein structure to make functional annotations for proteins in the Protein Data Bank in order to study the expressiveness of different structure-based prediction schemes. We present PersGNN - an end-to-end trainable deep learning model that combines graph representation learning with topological data analysis to capture a complex set of both local and global structural features. While variations of these techniques have been successfully applied to proteins before, we demonstrate that our hybridized approach, PersGNN, outperforms either method on its own as well as a baseline neural network that learns from the same information. PersGNN achieves a 9.3% boost in area under the precision recall curve (AUPR) compared to the best individual model, as well as high F1 scores across different gene ontology categories, indicating the transferability of this approach.

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.

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 suita ble 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
Protein secondary structure (SS) prediction is important for studying protein structure and function. When only the sequence (profile) information is used as input feature, currently the best predictors can obtain ~80% Q3 accuracy, which has not been improved in the past decade. Here we present DeepCNF (Deep Convolutional Neural Fields) for protein SS prediction. DeepCNF is a Deep Learning extension of Conditional Neural Fields (CNF), which is an integration of Conditional Random Fields (CRF) and shallow neural networks. DeepCNF can model not only complex sequence-structure relationship by a deep hierarchical architecture, but also interdependency between adjacent SS labels, so it is much more powerful than CNF. Experimental results show that DeepCNF can obtain ~84% Q3 accuracy, ~85% SOV score, and ~72% Q8 accuracy, respectively, on the CASP and CAMEO test proteins, greatly outperforming currently popular predictors. As a general framework, DeepCNF can be used to predict other protein structure properties such as contact number, disorder regions, and solvent accessibility.

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.

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.
