New sequence kernels improve protein property prediction

Researchers have developed a new class of sequence kernels for Gaussian processes to predict protein properties from limited experimental data. These kernels leverage evolutionary substitution matrices and local linearity, often outperforming models that rely on foundation model embeddings. The approach can also incorporate structural information from foundation models and is effective for multi-task learning across various protein property landscapes. AI

IMPACT Introduces a novel method for protein property prediction that may offer advantages over current foundation model approaches.

    Flexible Kernels for Protein Property Prediction

    Despite its importance to applications in protein design, predicting protein properties like binding affinity and thermostability from sparse experimental data remains a significant challenge. Accordingly, we introduce a class of sequence kernels that exploit evolutionary substit…
