Large scale paired antibody language models [PDF]
arXivAntibodies are proteins produced by the immune system that can identify and neutralise a wide variety of antigens with high specificity and affinity, and constitute the most successful class of biotherapeutics. With the advent of next-generation sequencing, billions of antibody sequences have been collected in recent years, though their application in ...

Peripheral blood proteome biomarkers distinguish immunosuppressive features of cancer progression
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Immune status significantly influences cancer progression. This study used plasma proteomics to analyze benign 67NR and malignant 4T1 breast tumor models at early and late tumor stages. Immune‐related proteins–osteopontin (Spp1), lactotransferrin (Ltf), calreticulin (Calr) and peroxiredoxin 2 (Prdx2)–were associated with systemic myeloid‐derived ...

ANTIPASTI: interpretable prediction of antibody binding affinity exploiting Normal Modes and Deep Learning [PDF]
arXivThe high binding affinity of antibodies towards their cognate targets is key to eliciting effective immune responses, as well as to the use of antibodies as research and therapeutic tools. Here, we propose ANTIPASTI, a Convolutional Neural Network model that achieves state-of-the-art performance in the prediction of antibody binding affinity using as ...

Stochastic variation in the FOXM1 transcription program mediates replication stress tolerance
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Cellular heterogeneity is a major cause of drug resistance in cancer. Segeren et al. used single‐cell transcriptomics to investigate gene expression events that correlate with sensitivity to the DNA‐damaging drugs gemcitabine and prexasertib. They show that dampened expression of transcription factor FOXM1 and its target genes protected cells against ...

Precise Antigen-Antibody Structure Predictions Enhance Antibody Development with HelixFold-Multimer [PDF]
arXivThe accurate prediction of antigen-antibody structures is essential for advancing immunology and therapeutic development, as it helps elucidate molecular interactions that underlie immune responses. Despite recent progress with deep learning models like AlphaFold and RoseTTAFold, accurately modeling antigen-antibody complexes remains a challenge due to

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The study evaluated the function and therapeutic implications of PRAME in basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The findings demonstrate that PRAME impairs keratinocyte differentiation pathways. Furthermore, PRAME impairs anticancer response to retinoid compounds in BCC and SCC cells.

AlignAb: Pareto-Optimal Energy Alignment for Designing Nature-Like Antibodies [PDF]
arXivWe present a three-stage framework for training deep learning models specializing in antibody sequence-structure co-design. We first pre-train a language model using millions of antibody sequence data. Then, we employ the learned representations to guide the training of a diffusion model for joint optimization over both sequence and structure of ...
