An explainability framework for deep learning on chemical reactions exemplified by enzyme-catalysed reaction classification

Daniel Probst

Assigning or proposing a catalysing enzyme given a chemical or biochemical reaction is of great interest to life sciences and chemistry alike. The exploration and design of metabolic pathways and the challenge of finding more sustainable enzyme-catalysed a ...

Generative machine learning produces kinetic models that accurately characterize intracellular metabolic states

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Michaël Roger Germain Moret

Large omics datasets are nowadays routinely generated to provide insights into cellular processes. Nevertheless, making sense of omics data and determining intracellular metabolic states remains challenging. Kinetic models of metabolism are crucial for int ...

Investigation of Carboxylic Acid Isosteres and Prodrugs for Inhibition of the Human SIRT5 Lysine Deacylase Enzyme

Alexander Lund Nielsen

Sirtuin 5 (SIRT5) is a protein lysine deacylase enzyme that regulates diverse biology by hydrolyzing epsilon-N-carboxyacyllysine posttranslational modifications in the cell. Inhibition of SIRT5 has been linked to potential treatment of several cancers but ...

The more the merrier: how homo-oligomerization alters the interactome and function of ribonucleotide reductase

Yimon Aye

Stereotyped as a nexus of dNTP synthesis, the dual-subunit enzyme - ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) - is coming into view as a paradigm of oligomerization and moonlighting behavior. In the present issue of `omics', we discuss what makes the larger subunit o ...
