Machine Learning-Driven Methods for Nanobody Affinity Prediction.

ABSTRACT: Because of their high affinity, specificity, and environmental stability, nanobodies (Nbs) have continuously received attention from the field of biological research. However, it is tough work to obtain high-affinity Nbs using experimental methods. In the current study, 12 machine learning algorithms were compared in parallel to explore the potential patterns between Nb-ligand affinity and eight noncovalent interactions. After model comparison and optimization, four optimized models (SVMrB, RotFB, RFB, and C50B) and two stacked models (StackKNN and StackRF) based on nine uncorrelated (correlation coefficient <0.65) optimized models were selected. All the models showed an accuracy of around 0.70 and high specificity. Compared to the other models, RotFB and RFB were not capable of predicting
