[PMID: 38925317 DOI: 10.1016/j.biotechadv.2024.108399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Microbial cell factories (MCFs) have been leveraged to construct sustainable platforms for value-added compound production. To optimize metabolism and reach optimal productivity, synthetic biology has developed various genetic devices to engineer microbial systems by gene editing, high-throughput protein engineering, and dynamic regulation. However, current synthetic biology methodologies still rely heavily on manual design, laborious testing, and exhaustive analysis. The emerging interdisciplinary field of artificial intelligence (AI) and biology has become pivotal in addressing the remaining challenges. AI-aided microbial production harnesses the power of processing, learning, and predicting vast amounts of biological data within seconds, providing outputs with high probability. With well-trained AI models, the conventional Design-Build-Test (DBT) cycle has been transformed into a multidimensional Design-Build-Test-Learn-Predict (DBTLP) workflow, leading to significantly improved operational efficiency and reduced labor consumption. Here, we comprehensively review the main components and recent advances in AI-aided microbial production, focusing on genome annotation, AI-aided protein engineering, artificial functional protein design, and AI-enabled pathway prediction. Finally, we discuss the challenges of integrating novel AI techniques into biology and propose the potential of large language models (LLMs) in advancing microbial production.

Comput Biol Med 2024; 176:108558. [PMID: 38754216 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2024.108558] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024]
Abstract
Protein structure prediction (PSP) remains a central challenge in computational biology due to its inherent complexity and high dimensionality. While numerous heuristic approaches have appeared in the literature, their success varies. The AB off-lattice model, which characterizes proteins as sequences of A (hydrophobic) and B (hydrophilic) beads, presents a simplified perspective on PSP. This work presents a mathematical optimization-based methodology capitalizing on the off-lattice AB model. Dissecting the inherent non-linearities of the energy landscape of protein folding allowed for formulating the PSP as a bilinear optimization problem. This formulation was achieved by introducing auxiliary variables and constraints that encapsulate the nuanced relationship between the protein's conformational space and its energy landscape. The proposed bilinear model exhibited notable accuracy in pinpointing the global minimum energy conformations on a benchmark dataset presented by the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Compared to traditional heuristic-based methods, this bilinear approach yielded exact solutions, reducing the likelihood of local minima entrapment. This research highlights the potential of reframing the traditionally non-linear protein structure prediction problem into a bilinear optimization problem through the off-lattice AB model. Such a transformation offers a route toward methodologies that can determine the global solution, challenging current PSP paradigms. Exploration into hybrid models, merging bilinear optimization and heuristic components, might present an avenue for balancing accuracy with computational efficiency.

Abstract
The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria poses a huge threat to the treatment of infections. Antimicrobial peptides are a class of short peptides that widely exist in organisms and are considered as potential substitutes for traditional antibiotics. Here, we use metagenomics combined with machine learning to find antimicrobial peptides from environmental metagenomes and successfully obtained 16,044,909 predicted AMPs. We compared the abundance of potential antimicrobial peptides in natural environments and engineered environments, and found that engineered environments also have great potential. Further, we chose sludge as a typical engineered environmental sample, and tried to mine antimicrobial peptides from it. Through metaproteome analysis and correlation analysis, we mined 27 candidate AMPs from sludge. We successfully synthesized 25 peptides by chemical synthesis, and experimentally verified that 21 peptides had antibacterial activity against the 4 strains tested. Our work highlights the potential for mining new antimicrobial peptides from engineered environments and demonstrates the effectiveness of mining antimicrobial peptides from sludge.

Abstract
The application of computational biology in drug development for membrane protein targets has experienced a boost from recent developments in deep learning-driven structure prediction, increased speed and resolution of structure elucidation, machine learning structure-based design and the evaluation of big data. Recent protein structure predictions based on machine learning tools have delivered surprisingly reliable results for water-soluble and membrane proteins but have limitations for development of drugs that target membrane proteins. Structural transitions of membrane proteins have a central role during transmembrane signaling and are often influenced by therapeutic compounds. Resolving the structural and functional basis of dynamic transmembrane signaling networks, especially within the native membrane or cellular environment, remains a central challenge for drug development. Tackling this challenge will require an interplay between experimental and computational tools, such as super-resolution optical microscopy for quantification of the molecular interactions of cellular signaling networks and their modulation by potential drugs, cryo-electron microscopy for determination of the structural transitions of proteins in native cell membranes and entire cells, and computational tools for data analysis and prediction of the structure and function of cellular signaling networks, as well as generation of promising drug candidates.

Abstract
Motivation Clusters of hydrophobic residues are known to promote structured protein stability and drive protein aggregation. Recent work has shown that identifying contiguous hydrophobic residue clusters (termed "blobs") has proven useful in both intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) simulation and human genome studies. However, a graphical interface was unavailable. Results Here, we present the blobulator: an interactive and intuitive web interface to detect intrinsic modularity in any protein sequence based on hydrophobicity. We demonstrate three use cases of the blobulator and show how identifying blobs with biologically relevant parameters provides useful information about a globular protein, two orthologous membrane proteins, and an IDP. Other potential applications are discussed, including: predicting protein segments with critical roles in tertiary interactions, providing a definition of local order and disorder with clear edges, and aiding in predicting protein features from sequence.

Effect of continuous instant pressure drop treatment on the rheological properties and volatile flavor compounds of whole highland barley flour. Food Res Int 2023; 173:113408. [PMID: 37803747 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113408] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
Continuous instant pressure drop (CIPD) treatment effectively reduces microbial contamination in whole highland barley flour (WHBF). Base on it, this study further investigated its effects on flour properties (especially rheological properties) and volatile compounds (VOCs) profile of WHBF, and compared it with that of ultraviolet-C (UV-C), ozone and hot air (HA) treatments. The results showed that the damaged starch content (6.0%) of CIPD-treated WHBF was increased, leading to a rough surface and partial aggregation of starch particle, thereby increasing the particle size (18.06 μm of D10, 261.46 μm of D50 and 534.44 μm of D90). Besides, CIPD treatment exerted a positive influence on the structure and rheological properties of WHBF, including an elevation in pasting temperature and viscosity. Notably, CIPD-treated WHBF exhibited higher storage modulus and loss modulus compared to the other three groups of sterilization treatments, contributing to the formulation of a better-defined and stable gel strength (tan δ = 0.38). UV-C and ozone, as cold sterilization techniques, also induced alterations in specific characteristics of WHBF. UV-C treatment led to changes in WHBF's crystallinity, while ozone treatment caused modifications in the secondary protein structure of WHBF. A total of 68 VOCs were identified in raw WHBF (including 3 acids, 19 alcohols, 25 aldehydes, 1 alkene, 8 esters, 2 ethers, 3 furans, and 7 ketones). The maximum flavor-contributing VOC in CIPD-treated WHBF remained dimethyl sulfide monomer (cabbage aroma), consistent with the raw WHBF. Conversely, in HA-treated WHBF, the maximum flavor-contributing VOC shifted to 2-furanmethanethiol monomer (roasted coffee aroma), altering the initial flavor presentation. These findings will provide strong support for the application of CIPD technology in the powdery foods industry.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a hereditary condition characterized by elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), which increases the risk of cardiovascular disease if left untreated. This review aims to discuss the role of bioinformatics tools in evaluating the pathogenicity of missense variants associated with FH. Specifically, it highlights the use of predictive models based on protein sequence, structure, evolutionary conservation, and other relevant features in identifying genetic variants within LDLR, APOB, and PCSK9 genes that contribute to FH. RECENT FINDINGS In recent years, various bioinformatics tools have emerged as valuable resources for analyzing missense variants in FH-related genes. Tools such as REVEL, Varity, and CADD use diverse computational approaches to predict the impact of genetic variants on protein function. These tools consider factors such as sequence conservation, structural alterations, and receptor binding to aid in interpreting the pathogenicity of identified missense variants. While these predictive models offer valuable insights, the accuracy of predictions can vary, especially for proteins with unique characteristics that might not be well represented in the databases used for training. This review emphasizes the significance of utilizing bioinformatics tools for assessing the pathogenicity of FH-associated missense variants. Despite their contributions, a definitive diagnosis of a genetic variant necessitates functional validation through in vitro characterization or cascade screening. This step ensures the precise identification of FH-related variants, leading to more accurate diagnoses. Integrating genetic data with reliable bioinformatics predictions and functional validation can enhance our understanding of the genetic basis of FH, enabling improved diagnosis, risk stratification, and personalized treatment for affected individuals. The comprehensive approach outlined in this review promises to advance the management of this inherited disorder, potentially leading to better health outcomes for those affected by FH.
