Enzyme Structure Prediction and Pocket Analysis

Understanding the structure and dynamic properties of enzyme pockets is crucial for elucidating their biological functions. This knowledge is invaluable for enzyme engineering and drug development. Despite the vast number of enzyme sequences (>50 million), less than 1% have experimentally determined functions.

Enzyme structures can provide functional insights, such as substrate specificity. Tools like homology modeling and ligand docking algorithms are instrumental in deducing function from structure. Recent advances have led to the discovery of new metabolites, enzymes, and pathways. The rapid growth in the number of enzyme sequences inferred from sequenced genomes poses a challenge for functional assignment, as only a small fraction has been experimentally characterized.

The Figure 1 outlines the core considerations in ML-based protein engineering, focusing on defining model inputs (protein sequences, structures) and outputs (predicting biophysical properties, generating novel sequences/structures), highlighting increased complexity with advanced structure-based and generative modeling approaches. (doi: 10.1021/acscatal.3c03417.)Figure 1. In ML-guided protein engineering, the key considerations revolve around defining inputs and model outputs, with increasing complexity as models integrate structure-based and generative approaches.
