Scientists at the University of Glasgow have developed a new machine learning model to translate the language of proteins using a powerful supercomputer.
The cross-disciplinary team created a large language model (LLM) called PLM-Interact to understand protein interactions and predict mutations that impact how proteins interact with each other.
PLM-Interact outperforms competing models in understanding and predicting protein interactions.
The study was published in Nature Communications, demonstrating the potential of AI in understanding biomolecules.
