FOTF-CPI: A compound-protein interaction prediction transformer based on the fusion of optimal transport fragments

Summary: Compound-protein interaction (CPI) affinity prediction plays an important role in reducing the cost and time of drug discovery. However, the interpretability of how fragments function in CPI is impacted by the fact that current methods ignore the affinity relationships between fragments of...

description Summary: Compound-protein interaction (CPI) affinity prediction plays an important role in reducing the cost and time of drug discovery. However, the interpretability of how fragments function in CPI is impacted by the fact that current methods ignore the affinity relationships between fragments of compounds and fragments of proteins in CPI modeling. This article introduces an improved Transformer called FOTF-CPI (a Fusion of Optimal Transport Fragments compound-protein interaction prediction model). We use an optimal transport-based fragmentation approach to improve the model’s understanding of compound and protein sequences. Additionally, a fused attention mechanism is employed, which combines the features of fragments to capture full affinity information. This fused attention redistributes higher attention scores to fragments with higher affinity. Experimental results show FOTF-CPI achieves an average 2% higher performance than other models on all three datasets. Furthermore, the visualization confirms the potential of FOTF-CPI for drug discovery applications.
