Predicting protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid
interaction sites from protein structures can provide insights into biological processes related to
the function of proteins and provide key technical guidance for disease diagnosis and the design of
new drugs.
In the present invention, we designed GraphRBF, an
end-to-end interpretable hierarchical geometric deep learning model. GraphRBF constructs local
neighbor representations of target residues based on the spatial-chemical arrangement of amino acid
neighbors, which ensures translational and rotational invariance. After that, we combine the
equivariant graph neural network and radial basis function neural network to extract features
directly from the local 3D structure of proteins, embedding the hidden layer feature representation
of amino acids.
Users can use their own data to predict the driver
gene for a particular cancer through our online GraphRBF
webserver. Source code of our server is provided on our Github page https://github.com/Wssduer/GraphRBF.
