description | Abstract Predicting protein-ligand binding affinity is essential for understanding protein-ligand interactions and advancing drug discovery. Recent research has demonstrated the advantages of sequence-based models and graph-based models. In this study, we present a novel hybrid multimodal approach, DeepTGIN, which integrates transformers and graph isomorphism networks to predict protein-ligand binding affinity. DeepTGIN is designed to learn sequence and graph features efficiently. The DeepTGIN model comprises three modules: the data representation module, the encoder module, and the prediction module. The transformer encoder learns sequential features from proteins and protein pockets separately, while the graph isomorphism network extracts graph features from the ligands. To evaluate the performance of DeepTGIN, we compared it with state-of-the-art models using the PDBbind 2016 core set and PDBbind 2013 core set. DeepTGIN outperforms these models in terms of R, RMSE, MAE, SD, and CI metrics. Ablation studies further demonstrate the effectiveness of the ligand features and the encoder module. The code is available at: https://github.com/zhc-moushang/DeepTGIN . Scientific contribution DeepTGIN is a novel hybrid multimodal deep learning model for predict protein-ligand binding affinity. The model combines the Transformer encoder to extract sequence features from protein and protein pocket, while integrating graph isomorphism networks to capture features from the ligand. This model addresses the limitations of existing methods in exploring protein pocket and ligand features. |
