BERT-Kgly: A Bidirectional Encoder Representations From Transformers (BERT)-Based Model for Predicting Lysine Glycation Site for Homo sapiens.

ABSTRACT: As one of the most important posttranslational modifications (PTMs), protein lysine glycation changes the characteristics of the proteins and leads to the dysfunction of the proteins, which may cause diseases. Accurately detecting the glycation sites is of great benefit for understanding the biological function and potential mechanism of glycation in the treatment of diseases. However, experimental methods are expensive and time-consuming for lysine glycation site identification. Instead, computational methods, with their higher efficiency and lower cost, could be an important supplement to the experimental methods. In this study, we proposed a novel predictor, BERT-Kgly, for protein lysine glycation site prediction, which was developed by extracting embedding features of protein segments
