Sumario: | Residue distance prediction from the sequence is critical for many biological applications such as protein structure reconstruction, protein–protein interaction prediction, and protein design. However, prediction of fine-grained distances between residues with long sequence separations still remains challenging. In this study, we propose DuetDis, a method based on duet feature sets and deep residual network with squeeze-and-excitation (SE), for protein inter-residue distance prediction. DuetDis embraces the ability to learn and fuse features directly or indirectly extracted from the whole-genome/metagenomic databases and, therefore, minimize the information loss through ensembling models trained on different feature sets. We evaluate DuetDis and 11 widely used peer methods on a large-scale test set (610 proteins chains). The experimental results suggest that 1) prediction results from different feature sets show obvious differences; 2) ensembling different feature sets can improve the prediction performance; 3) high-quality multiple sequence alignment (MSA) used for both training and testing can greatly improve the prediction performance; and 4) DuetDis is more accurate than peer methods for the overall prediction, more reliable in terms of model prediction score, and more robust against shallow multiple sequence alignment (MSA). |
