LazyAF, a pipeline for accessible medium-scale in silico prediction of protein-protein interactions
1Department of Molecular Microbiology, John Innes Centre, Norwich, UK.
Abstract:
Artificial intelligence has revolutionized the field of protein structure prediction. However, with more powerful and complex software being developed, it is accessibility and ease of use rather than capability that is quickly becoming a limiting factor to end users. LazyAF is a Google Colaboratory-based pipeline which integrates the existing ColabFold BATCH software to streamline the process of medium-scale protein-protein interaction prediction. LazyAF was used to predict the interactome of the 76 proteins encoded on the broad-host-range multi-drug resistance plasmid RK2, demonstrating the ease and accessibility the pipeline provides.

Protein Networks
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...
Conserved Binding Sites
Binding sites are often located in large pockets, and if their location on a protein’s surface is unknown, it can be predicted using various approaches. The energetic method computationally...
Ligand Binding Sites
Protein-ligand interactions are quite specific; even though numerous potential ligands surround a cellular protein at any given time, only a particular ligand can bind to that protein. Moreover, a ligand binds only to a dedicated area on the surface of the protein, known as the...
