ATPsite: sequence-based prediction of ATP-binding residues
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: ATP is a ubiquitous nucleotide that provides energy for cellular activities, catalyzes chemical reactions, and is involved in cellular signalling. The knowledge of the ATP-protein interactions helps with annotation of protein functions and finds applications in drug design. The sequence to structure annotation gap motivates development of high-throughput sequence-based predictors of the ATP-binding residues. Moreover, our empirical tests show that the only existing predictor, ATPint, is characterized by relatively low predictive quality. METHODS: We propose a novel, high-throughput machine learning-based predictor, ATPsite, which identifies ATP-binding residues from protein sequences. Our predictor utilizes Support Vector Machine classifier and a comprehensive set of input features that are based on the sequence, evolutionary profiles, and the sequence-predicted structural descriptors including secondary structure, solvent accessibility, and dihedral angles. RESULTS: The ATPsite achieves significantly higher Mathews Correlation Coefficient (MCC) and Area Under the ROC Curve (AUC) values when compared with the existing methods including the ATPint, conservation-based rate4site, and alignment-based BLAST predictors. We also assessed the effectiveness of individual input types. The PSSM profile, the conservation scores, and certain features based on amino acid groups are shown to be more effective in predicting the ATP-binding residues than the remaining feature groups. CONCLUSIONS: Statistical tests show that ATPsite significantly outperforms existing solutions. The consensus of the ATPsite with the sequence-alignment based predictor is shown to give further improvements.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
