We are witnessing a steep increase in model development initiatives in genomics that employ high-end machine learning methodologies. Of particular interest are models that predict certain genomic characteristics based solely on DNA sequence. These models, however, treat the DNA as a mere collection of four, A, T, G and C, letters, dismissing the past advancements in science that can enable the use of more intricate information from nucleic acid sequences. Here, we provide a comprehensive database of quantum mechanical (QM) and geometric features for all the permutations of 7-meric DNA in their representative B, A and Z conformations. The database is generated by employing the applicable high-cost and time-consuming QM methodologies. This can thus make it seamless to associate a wealth of novel molecular features to any DNA sequence, by scanning it with a matching k-meric window and pulling the pre-computed values from our database for further use in modelling. We demonstrate the usefulness of our deposited features through their exclusive use in developing a model for A->C mutation rates.

Accurately predicting activation energies is crucial for understanding chemical reactions and modeling complex reaction systems. However, the high computational cost of quantum chemistry methods often limits the feasibility of large-scale studies, leading to a scarcity of high-quality activation energy data. In this work, we explore and compare three innovative approaches (transfer learning, delta learning, and feature engineering) to enhance the accuracy of activation energy predictions using graph neural networks, specifically focusing on methods that incorporate low-cost, low-level computational data.

Accurately and swiftly characterizing the state of polarization (SoP) of complex structured light is crucial in the realms of classical and quantum optics. Conventional strategies for detecting SoP, which typically involves a sequence of cascaded optical elements, are bulky, complex, and run counter to miniaturization and integration. While metasurface-enabled polarimetry has emerged to overcome these limitations, its functionality predominantly remains confined to identifying SoP within the standard Poincaré sphere framework.

Molecular Property Prediction (MPP) is a fundamental task in important research fields such as chemistry, materials, biology, and medicine, where traditional computational chemistry methods based on quantum mechanics often consume substantial time and computing power. In recent years, machine learning has been increasingly used in computational chemistry, in which graph neural networks have shown good performance in molecular property prediction tasks, but they have some limitations in terms of generalizability, interpretability, and certainty. In order to address the above challenges, a Multiscale Molecular Structural Neural Network (MMSNet) is proposed in this paper, which obtains rich multiscale molecular representations through the information fusion between bonded and non-bonded "message passing" structures at the atomic scale and spatial feature information "encoder-decoder" structures at the molecular scale; a multi-level attention mechanism is introduced on the basis of theoretical analysis of molecular mechanics in order to enhance the model's interpretability; the prediction results of MMSNet are used as label values and clustered in the molecular library by the K-NN (K-Nearest Neighbors) algorithm to reverse match the spatial structure of the molecules, and the certainty of the model is quantified by comparing virtual screening results across different K-values.

Molecular simulations offer valuable insights into thermosetting polymers' microstructures and interactions with small molecules, aiding in the development of advanced materials. In this study, we design two cyanate resin models featuring monomers of different sizes and employ a previously developed method to generate crosslinked structures. We then analyze their crosslinking processes and physicochemical properties.

Fructose-driven metabolic disorders, such as obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), dyslipidemia, and type 2 diabetes, are significant global health challenges. Ketohexokinase C (KHK-C), a key enzyme in fructose metabolism, is a promising therapeutic target. α-Mangostin, a naturally occurring prenylated xanthone, has been identified as an effective KHK-C inhibitor, prompting exploration of its analogs for enhanced efficacy.
