Abstract

Stability of proteins at high temperature has been a topic of interest for many years, as this attribute is favourable for applications ranging from therapeutics to industrial chemical manufacturing. Our current understanding and methods for designing high-temperature stability into target proteins are inadequate. To drive innovation in this space, we have curated a large dataset, learn2thermDB, of protein-temperature examples, totalling 24 million instances, and paired proteins across temperatures based on homology, yielding 69 million protein pairs - orders of magnitude larger than the current largest. This important step of pairing allows for study of high-temperature stability in a sequence-dependent manner in the big data era. The data pipeline is parameterized and open, allowing it to be tuned by downstream users. We further show that the data contains signal for deep learning. This data offers a new doorway towards thermal stability design models.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
