A two-task predictor for discovering phase separation proteins and their undergoing mechanism.

ABSTRACT: Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is one of the mechanisms mediating the compartmentalization of macromolecules (proteins and nucleic acids) in cells, forming biomolecular condensates or membraneless organelles. Consequently, the systematic identification of potential LLPS proteins is crucial for understanding the phase separation process and its biological mechanisms. A two-task predictor, Opt_PredLLPS, was developed to discover potential phase separation proteins and further evaluate their mechanism. The first task model of Opt_PredLLPS combines a convolutional neural network (CNN) and bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) through a fully connected layer, where the CNN utilizes evolutionary information features as input, and BiLSTM utilizes multimodal features as input.
