Abstract:Protein-nucleic acid (PNA) binding plays critical roles in the transcription, translation, regulation, and three-dimensional organization of the genome. Structural models of proteins bound to nucleic acids (NA) provide insights into the chemical, electrostatic, and geometric properties of the protein structure that give rise to NA binding but are scarce relative to models of unbound proteins. We developed a deep learning approach for predicting PNA binding given the unbound structure of a protein that we call … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
