Using machine learning to predict protein–protein interactions between a zombie ant fungus and its carpenter ant host
Abstract Parasitic fungi produce proteins that modulate virulence, alter host physiology, and trigger host responses. These proteins, classified as a type of “effector,” often act via protein–protein interactions (PPIs). The fungal parasite Ophiocordyceps camponoti-floridani (zombie ant fungus) mani...
