让蛋白模型根据底物动态调整表示,提升酶促反应预测准确率

Docking-Aware Attention: Dynamic Protein Representations through Molecular Context Integration

  • 将分子对接结果融入注意力机制,生成随底物变化的蛋白动态表征
  • 在复杂分子上达62.2%准确率,创新反应上55.54%,优于当前最佳方法
  • 可解释性强,适合酶催化设计、药物发现等需要动态蛋白建模的场景

计算预测酶促反应是可持续化学合成中的关键挑战,涉及药物发现、材料科学与绿色化学等多个领域。这些合成依赖于能选择性催化复杂分子转化的蛋白质催化剂,其同一蛋白可因不同分子伙伴而催化不同反应。现有反应预测中的蛋白表征方法或忽略结构信息,或使用静态嵌入,无法捕捉蛋白对底物的动态适应性。本文提出对接感知注意力(Docking-Aware Attention, DAA),通过将分子对接预测的物理相互作用评分与学习到的注意力模式结合,使模型聚焦于与特定分子互作最相关的蛋白区域,生成上下文依赖的动态蛋白表示。我们在酶促反应预测任务上评估该方法,结果显示其在复杂分子上的准确率达62.2%,优于之前的56.79%;在创新反应上达55.54%,优于49.45%。通过消融实验和可视化分析,证明DAA能生成可解释的注意力模式,随分子环境自适应调整。该方法为生物催化预测中的上下文感知蛋白表征提供通用框架,具有广泛的应用潜力。我们已开源代码与预训练模型以促进后续研究。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Computational prediction of enzymatic reactions represents a crucial challenge in sustainable chemical synthesis across various scientific domains, ranging from drug discovery to materials science and green chemistry. These syntheses rely on proteins that selectively catalyze complex molecular transformations. These protein catalysts exhibit remarkable substrate adaptability, with the same protein often catalyzing different chemical transformations depending on its molecular partners. Current approaches to protein representation in reaction prediction either ignore protein structure entirely or rely on static embeddings, failing to capture how proteins dynamically adapt their behavior to different substrates. We present Docking-Aware Attention (DAA), a novel architecture that generates dynamic, context-dependent protein representations by incorporating molecular docking information into the attention mechanism. DAA combines physical interaction scores from docking predictions with learned attention patterns to focus on protein regions most relevant to specific molecular interactions. We evaluate our method on enzymatic reaction prediction, where it outperforms previous state-of-the-art methods, achieving 62.2\% accuracy versus 56.79\% on complex molecules and 55.54\% versus 49.45\% on innovative reactions. Through detailed ablation studies and visualizations, we demonstrate how DAA generates interpretable attention patterns that adapt to different molecular contexts. Our approach represents a general framework for context-aware protein representation in biocatalysis prediction, with potential applications across enzymatic synthesis planning. We open-source our implementation and pre-trained models to facilitate further research.
