通过动态结构生成与不确定性建模,提升突变蛋白相互作用预测精度

Dynamics-inspired Structure Hallucination for Protein-protein Interaction Modeling

  • 基于野生型结构训练结构幻觉模块,生成缺失的突变体结构
  • 在SKEMPI.v2上预测自由能变化优于现有工具,准确率显著提升
  • 适合蛋白质工程与药物设计领域研究人员参考

蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用(PPI)是生物学中的核心挑战,准确预测突变对PPI的影响对药物设计和蛋白质工程至关重要。深度学习虽有潜力,但受限于两个主要问题:一是突变蛋白结构难以获取;二是现有模型未充分考虑PPI的动态特性。为此,我们提出新型框架Refine-PPI,包含两项关键改进:首先,设计一个结构精炼模块,通过在可用野生型结构上进行掩码突变建模(MMM)任务训练,再迁移用于生成难以获取的突变体结构;其次,引入一种新型几何网络——概率密度云网络(PDC-Net),以捕捉三维动态变化并编码与PPI相关的原子不确定性。在SKEMPI.v2数据集上的综合实验表明,Refine-PPI在预测自由能变化方面优于所有现有工具,验证了其结构幻觉策略与PDC模块在应对突变体结构缺失和建模几何不确定性方面的有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Protein-protein interaction (PPI) represents a central challenge within the biology field, and accurately predicting the consequences of mutations in this context is crucial for drug design and protein engineering. Deep learning (DL) has shown promise in forecasting the effects of such mutations, but is hindered by two primary constraints. First, the structures of mutant proteins are often elusive to acquire. Secondly, PPI takes place dynamically, which is rarely integrated into the DL architecture design. To address these obstacles, we present a novel framework named Refine-PPI with two key enhancements. First, we introduce a structure refinement module trained by a mask mutation modeling (MMM) task on available wild-type structures, which is then transferred to produce the inaccessible mutant structures. Second, we employ a new kind of geometric network, called the probability density cloud network (PDC-Net), to capture 3D dynamic variations and encode the atomic uncertainty associated with PPI. Comprehensive experiments on SKEMPI.v2 substantiate the superiority of Refine-PPI over all existing tools for predicting free energy change. These findings underscore the effectiveness of our hallucination strategy and the PDC module in addressing the absence of mutant protein structure and modeling geometric uncertainty.
