1/ Our paper is out today in @cp-cellsystems.bsky.social. We used protein language models and deep learning to identify candidate protease allergens in the human microbiome. www.cell.com/cell-systems...
Identifying microbial protease allergens through protein language model-guided homology
Thurimella et al. introduce a deep learning framework using protein language models to predict allergenic proteases in the microbiome. The model identified hundreds of candidate allergenic proteases i...
