Abstract

A bstract: With the recent advances in protein 3D structure prediction, protein interactions are becoming more central than ever before. Here, we address the problem of determining how proteins interact with one another. More specifically, we investigate the possibility of discriminating near-native protein complex conformations from incorrect ones by exploiting local environments around interfacial residues. Deep Local Analysis (DLA)-Ranker is a deep learning framework applying 3D convolutions to a set of locally oriented cubes representing the protein interface. It explicitly considers the local geometry of the interfacial residues along with their neighboring atoms and the regions of the interface with different solvent accessibility. We assessed its performance on three docking benchmarks made of half a million acceptable and incorrect conformations. We show that DLA-Ranker successfully identifies near-native conformations from ensembles generated by molecular docking. It surpasses or competes with other deep learning-based scoring functions. We also showcase its usefulness to discover alternative interfaces. Availability: http://gitlab.lcqb.upmc.fr/dla-ranker/DLA-Ranker.git

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.
