iMFP-LG: Identification of Novel Multi-Functional Peptides by Using Protein Language Models and Graph-Based Deep Learning.

Functional peptides are short amino acid fragments that have a wide range of beneficial functions for living organisms. The majority of previous research focused on mono-functional peptides, but a growing number of multi-functional peptides have been discovered. Although there have been enormous experimental efforts to assay multi-functional peptides, only a small fraction of millions of known peptides have been explored.
