Invariant point message passing for protein side chain packing.

ABSTRACT: Protein side chain packing (PSCP) is a fundamental problem in the field of protein engineering, as high-confidence and low-energy conformations of amino acid side chains are crucial for understanding (and designing) protein folding, protein-protein interactions, and protein-ligand interactions. Traditional PSCP methods (such as the Rosetta Packer) often rely on a library of discrete side chain conformations, or rotamers, and a forcefield to guide the structure to low-energy conformations. Recently, deep learning (DL) based methods (such as DLPacker, AttnPacker, and DiffPack) have demonstrated state-of-the-art predictions and speed in the PSCP task. Building off the success of geometric graph neural networks for protein modeling, we present the Protein Invariant Point Packer (PIPPack) which
