Assessment of machine-learning predictions for MED25 ACID domain interactions with transactivation domains

Open access

Preprint — published as 10.1002/1873-3468.14837

Abstract

Human Mediator complex subunit MED25 binds transactivation domains (TADs) present in various cellular and viral proteins using two binding interfaces found on opposite sides of its ACID domain, and referenced as H1 and H2. Here, we use and compare deep learning methods to characterize Human MED25-TADs interfaces and assess the predicted models to published experimental data. For the H1 interface, AlphaFold produces predictions with high reliability scores that agree well with experimental data, while the H2 interface predictions appear inconsistent, preventing reliable binding modes. Despite these limitations, we experimentally assess the validity of Lana-1 and IE62 MED25 interface predictions. AlphaFold predictions also suggest the existence of a unique hydrophobic pocket for Arabidopsis MED25 ACID domain.

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.
