Geometric deep learning has recently achieved great success in non-Euclidean domains, and learning on 3D structures of large biomolecules is emerging as a distinct research area. However, its efficacy is largely constrained due to the limited quantity of structural data. Meanwhile, protein language models trained on substantial 1D sequences have shown burgeoning capabilities with scale in a broad range of applications. Nevertheless, no preceding studies consider combining these different protein modalities to promote the representation power of geometric neural networks. To address this gap, we make the foremost step to integrate the knowledge learned by well-trained protein language models into several state-of-the-art geometric networks. Experiments are evaluated on a variety of protein representation learning benchmarks, including protein-protein interface prediction, model quality assessment, protein-protein rigid-body docking, and binding affinity prediction, leading to an overall improvement of 20% over baselines and the new state-of-the-art performance. Strong evidence indicates that the incorporation of protein language models' knowledge enhances geometric networks' capacity by a significant margin and can be generalized to complex tasks.

We consider the prediction of interfaces between proteins, a challenging problem with important applications in drug discovery and design, and examine the performance of existing and newly proposed spatial graph convolution operators for this task. By performing convolution over a local neighborhood of a node of interest, we are able to stack multiple layers of convolution and learn effective latent representations that integrate information across the graph that represent the three dimensional structure of a protein of interest. An architecture that combines the learned features across pairs of proteins is then used to classify pairs of amino acid residues as part of an interface or not. In our experiments, several graph convolution operators yielded accuracy that is better than the state-of-the-art SVM method in this task. † denotes equal contribution 31st Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NIPS 2017), Long Beach, CA, USA.

The field of geometric deep learning has had a profound impact on the development of innovative and powerful graph neural network architectures. Disciplines such as computer vision and computational biology have benefited significantly from such methodological advances, which has led to breakthroughs in scientific domains such as protein structure prediction and design. In this work, we introduce GCPNet, a new geometry-complete, SE(3)-equivariant graph neural network designed for 3D graph representation learning. We demonstrate the state-of-the-art utility and expressiveness of our method on six independent datasets designed for three distinct geometric tasks: protein-ligand binding affinity prediction, protein structure ranking, and Newtonian many-body systems modeling. Our results suggest that GCPNet is a powerful, general method for capturing complex geometric and physical interactions within 3D graphs for downstream prediction tasks. The source code, data, and instructions to train new models or reproduce our results are freely available on GitHub.

抗体设计对于治疗用法和生物学研究很有价值。现有的基于深度学习的方法遇到了几个关键问题:1)互补性区域(CDRS)生成的不完整上下文; 2)无法捕获输入结构的整个3D几何; 3)以自回归方式对CDR序列的效率低下。在本文中,我们提出了多通道等效的注意网络(平均值),这是一个能够共同设计1D序列和CDR的3D结构的端到端模型。要具体,平均值将抗体设计作为条件图翻译问题,通过导入包括靶抗原和抗体的轻链在内的额外组件。然后,平均诉诸于E(3) - 等级信息以及提出的注意机制,以更好地捕获不同组件之间的几何相关性。最后,它通过多轮渐进式完整射击方案来输出1D序列和3D结构,该方案在以前的自动回归方法上具有更高的效率。我们的方法显着超过了序列和结构建模,抗原结合抗体设计和结合亲和力优化的最新模型。具体而言,抗原结合CDR设计的相对改善约为22%,亲和力优化为34%。

学习有效的蛋白质表示在生物学的各种任务中至关重要,例如预测蛋白质功能或结构。现有的方法通常在大量未标记的氨基酸序列上预先蛋白质语言模型,然后在下游任务中使用一些标记的数据来对模型进行修复。尽管基于序列的方法具有有效性,但尚未探索蛋白质性能预测的已知蛋白质结构的预处理功能,尽管蛋白质结构已知是蛋白质功能的决定因素,但尚未探索。在本文中,我们建议根据其3D结构预处理蛋白质。我们首先提出一个简单而有效的编码器,以学习蛋白质的几何特征。我们通过利用多视图对比学习和不同的自我预测任务来预先蛋白质图编码器。对功能预测和折叠分类任务的实验结果表明,我们提出的预处理方法表现优于或与最新的基于最新的序列方法相提并论,同时使用较少的数据。我们的实施可在https://github.com/deepgraphlearning/gearnet上获得。

3D空间中的空间结构对于确定分子特性是重要的。最近的论文使用几何深度学习来代表分子和预测性质。然而,这些论文在捕获输入原子的远程依赖性时在计算上昂贵;并且尚未考虑外部距离的不均匀性,因此未能学习不同尺度的上下文依赖表示。为了处理这些问题,我们引入了3D变压器,变压器的变型,用于结合3D空间信息的分子表示。 3D变压器在完全连接的图形上运行,在原子之间的直接连接。为了应对外部距离的不均匀性,我们开发了一种多尺度的自我关注模块,利用局部细粒度模式随着越来越多的上下文尺度来利用局部细粒度模式。由于不同尺寸的分子依赖于不同种类的空间特征,我们设计了一种自适应位置编码模块,用于针对小型和大分子采用不同的位置编码方法。最后,为了获得原子嵌入的分子表示,我们提出了一种殷勤最远的点采样算法,该算法在注意分数的帮助下选择一部分原子,克服虚拟节点的障碍和先前的距离 - 优势下采样方法。我们通过三个重要的科学域验证3D变压器:量子化学,物质科学和蛋白质组学。我们的实验表现出对晶体性能预测任务和蛋白质 - 配体结合亲和预测任务的最先进模型的显着改善,并且在量子化学分子数据集中显示了更好或更有竞争的性能。这项工作提供了明确的证据表明,生物化学任务可以从3D分子表示中获得一致的益处,不同的任务需要不同的位置编码方法。

The prediction of protein structures from sequences is an important task for function prediction, drug design, and related biological processes understanding. Recent advances have proved the power of language models (LMs) in processing the protein sequence databases, which inherit the advantages of attention networks and capture useful information in learning representations for proteins. The past two years have witnessed remarkable success in tertiary protein structure prediction (PSP), including evolution-based and single-sequence-based PSP. It seems that instead of using energy-based models and sampling procedures, protein language model (pLM)-based pipelines have emerged as mainstream paradigms in PSP. Despite the fruitful progress, the PSP community needs a systematic and up-to-date survey to help bridge the gap between LMs in the natural language processing (NLP) and PSP domains and introduce their methodologies, advancements and practical applications. To this end, in this paper, we first introduce the similarities between protein and human languages that allow LMs extended to pLMs, and applied to protein databases. Then, we systematically review recent advances in LMs and pLMs from the perspectives of network architectures, pre-training strategies, applications, and commonly-used protein databases. Next, different types of methods for PSP are discussed, particularly how the pLM-based architectures function in the process of protein folding. Finally, we identify challenges faced by the PSP community and foresee promising research directions along with the advances of pLMs. This survey aims to be a hands-on guide for researchers to understand PSP methods, develop pLMs and tackle challenging problems in this field for practical purposes.

Proteins are fundamental biological entities that play a key role in life activities. The amino acid sequences of proteins can be folded into stable 3D structures in the real physicochemical world, forming a special kind of sequence-structure data. With the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques, Protein Representation Learning (PRL) has recently emerged as a promising research topic for extracting informative knowledge from massive protein sequences or structures. To pave the way for AI researchers with little bioinformatics background, we present a timely and comprehensive review of PRL formulations and existing PRL methods from the perspective of model architectures, pretext tasks, and downstream applications. We first briefly introduce the motivations for protein representation learning and formulate it in a general and unified framework. Next, we divide existing PRL methods into three main categories: sequence-based, structure-based, and sequence-structure co-modeling. Finally, we discuss some technical challenges and potential directions for improving protein representation learning. The latest advances in PRL methods are summarized in a GitHub repository https://github.com/LirongWu/awesome-protein-representation-learning.

Machine learning (ML) is revolutionizing protein structural analysis, including an important subproblem of predicting protein residue contact maps, i.e., which amino-acid residues are in close spatial proximity given the amino-acid sequence of a protein. Despite recent progresses in ML-based protein contact prediction, predicting contacts with a wide range of distances (commonly classified into short-, medium- and long-range contacts) remains a challenge. Here, we propose a multiscale graph neural network (GNN) based approach taking a cue from multiscale physics simulations, in which a standard pipeline involving a recurrent neural network (RNN) is augmented with three GNNs to refine predictive capability for short-, medium- and long-range residue contacts, respectively. Test results on the ProteinNet dataset show improved accuracy for contacts of all ranges using the proposed multiscale RNN+GNN approach over the conventional approach, including the most challenging case of long-range contact prediction.

Graph classification is an important area in both modern research and industry. Multiple applications, especially in chemistry and novel drug discovery, encourage rapid development of machine learning models in this area. To keep up with the pace of new research, proper experimental design, fair evaluation, and independent benchmarks are essential. Design of strong baselines is an indispensable element of such works. In this thesis, we explore multiple approaches to graph classification. We focus on Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), which emerged as a de facto standard deep learning technique for graph representation learning. Classical approaches, such as graph descriptors and molecular fingerprints, are also addressed. We design fair evaluation experimental protocol and choose proper datasets collection. This allows us to perform numerous experiments and rigorously analyze modern approaches. We arrive to many conclusions, which shed new light on performance and quality of novel algorithms. We investigate application of Jumping Knowledge GNN architecture to graph classification, which proves to be an efficient tool for improving base graph neural network architectures. Multiple improvements to baseline models are also proposed and experimentally verified, which constitutes an important contribution to the field of fair model comparison.

Artificial intelligence (AI) in the form of deep learning bears promise for drug discovery and chemical biology, $\textit{e.g.}$, to predict protein structure and molecular bioactivity, plan organic synthesis, and design molecules $\textit{de novo}$. While most of the deep learning efforts in drug discovery have focused on ligand-based approaches, structure-based drug discovery has the potential to tackle unsolved challenges, such as affinity prediction for unexplored protein targets, binding-mechanism elucidation, and the rationalization of related chemical kinetic properties. Advances in deep learning methodologies and the availability of accurate predictions for protein tertiary structure advocate for a $\textit{renaissance}$ in structure-based approaches for drug discovery guided by AI. This review summarizes the most prominent algorithmic concepts in structure-based deep learning for drug discovery, and forecasts opportunities, applications, and challenges ahead.
