• Abstract: Protein function is inherently linked to its localization within the cell, and fluorescent microscopy data is an indispensable resource for learning representations of proteins. Despite major developments in molecular representation learning, extracting functional information from biological images remains a non-trivial computational task. Current state-of-the-art approaches use autoencoder models to learn high-quality features by reconstructing images. However, such methods are prone to capturing noise and imaging artifacts. In this work, we revisit deep learning models used for classifying major subcellular localizations, and evaluate representations extracted from their final layers. We show that simple convolutional networks trained on localization classification can learn protein representations that encapsulate diverse functional information, and significantly outperform autoencoder-based models. We also propose a robust evaluation strategy to assess quality of protein representations across different scales of biological function.

  We propose a novel structure-aware protein self-supervised learning method to capture structural information of proteins. In particular, a well-designed graph neural network (GNN) model is pretrained to preserve the protein structural information. We identify the relation between the sequential information in the protein language model and the structural information in the specially designed GNN model via a novel pseudo bi-level optimization scheme.

  This paper introduces a multi-scale graph construction of a protein -- HoloProt. The surface captures coarser details of the protein, while sequence as primary component and structure captures finer details. Our graph encoder then learns a multi-scale representation by allowing each level to integrate the encoding from level(s) below with the graph at that level.
