• Authors: Yuan Chiang, Wei-Han Hui, Shu-Wei Chang
• Abstract summary: Recent advances in protein function prediction exploit graph-based deep learning approaches to correlate the structural and topological features of proteins with their molecular functions. Here we apply normal mode analysis to native protein conformations and augment protein graphs by connecting edges between dynamically correlated residue pairs. The proposed graph neural network, ProDAR, increases the interpretability and generalizability of residue-level annotations and robustly reflects structural nuance in proteins.

• Abstract: Recent advances in protein function prediction exploit graph-based deep learning approaches to correlate the structural and topological features of proteins with their molecular functions. However, proteins in vivo are not static but dynamic molecules that alter conformation for functional purposes. Here we apply normal mode analysis to native protein conformations and augment protein graphs by connecting edges between dynamically correlated residue pairs. In the multilabel function classification task, our method demonstrates a remarkable performance gain based on this dynamics-informed representation. The proposed graph neural network, ProDAR, increases the interpretability and generalizability of residue-level annotations and robustly reflects structural nuance in proteins. We elucidate the importance of dynamic information in graph representation by comparing class activation maps for the hMTH1, nitrophorin, and SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain. Our model successfully learns the dynamic fingerprints of proteins and provides molecular insights into protein functions, with vast untapped potential for broad biotechnology and pharmaceutical applications.

  Self-supervised training of language models (LMs) has seen great success for protein sequences in learning meaningful representations and for generative drug design. Most protein LMs are based on the Transformer architecture trained on individual proteins with short context lengths. We propose LC-PLM based on an alternative protein LM architecture, BiMamba-S, built off selective structured state-space models. We also introduce its graph-contextual variant, LC-PLM-G, which contextualizes protein-protein interaction graphs for a second stage of training.
