EGGNet, a Generalizable Geometric Deep Learning Framework for Protein Complex Pose Scoring.

Computational prediction of molecule-protein interactions has been key for developing new molecules to interact with a target protein for therapeutics development. Previous work includes two independent streams of approaches: (1) predicting protein-protein interactions (PPIs) between naturally occurring proteins and (2) predicting binding affinities between proteins and small-molecule ligands [also known as drug-target interaction (DTI)]. Studying the two problems in isolation has limited the ability of these computational models to generalize across the PPI and DTI tasks, both of which ultimately involve noncovalent interactions with a protein target.

LM-GVP: an extensible sequence and structure informed deep learning framework for protein property prediction.

Proteins perform many essential functions in biological systems and can be successfully developed as bio-therapeutics. It is invaluable to be able to predict their properties based on a proposed sequence and structure. In this study, we developed a novel generalizable deep learning framework, LM-GVP, composed of a protein Language Model (LM) and Graph Neural Network (GNN) to leverage information from both 1D amino acid sequences and 3D structures of proteins.
