Analyzing microbial samples remains computationally challenging due to their diversity and complexity. The lack of robust de novo protein function prediction methods exacerbates the difficulty in deriving functional insights from these samples. Traditional prediction methods, dependent on homology and sequence similarity, often fail to predict functions for novel proteins and proteins without known homologs.

Recently, RNA velocity has driven a paradigmatic change in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) studies, allowing the reconstruction and prediction of directed trajectories in cell differentiation and state transitions. Most existing methods of dynamic modeling use ordinary differential equations (ODE) for individual genes without applying multivariate approaches. However, this modeling strategy inadequately captures the intrinsically stochastic nature of transcriptional dynamics governed by a cell-specific latent time across multiple genes, potentially leading to erroneous results.

Motivation: Understanding the conformational landscape of protein-ligand interactions is critical for elucidating the binding mechanisms that govern these interactions. Traditional methods like molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are computationally intensive, leading to a demand for more efficient approaches. This study explores how multiple sequence alignment (MSA) clustering enhance AF-Multimer's ability to predict conformational landscapes, particularly for proteins with multiple conformational states.

Pupil dilation is considered to track the arousal state linked to a wide range of cognitive processes. A recent article suggested the potential to unify findings in pupillometry studies based on an information theory framework and Bayesian methods. However, Bayesian methods become computationally intractable in many realistic situations.

To understand the mechanism of self-assembly and to predict the evolutionary pattern of the fusion-fission system over a long period of time, studying the dynamics of these processes is of great significance. The trajectories from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of self-assembly processes contain numerous latent fusion and fission events. To analyze the fusion and fission events from the simulated trajectory, in this article, a dynamic clustering approach was developed by comparing the changes of monomer composition within clusters over simulated time.
