We present ProDCoNN-server, a web server for protein sequence design and prediction from a given protein structure. The server is based on a previously developed deep learning model for protein design, ProDCoNN, which achieved state-of-the-art performance when tested on large numbers of test proteins and benchmark datasets. The prediction is very fast compared with other protein sequence prediction servers - it takes only a few minutes for a query protein on average. Two models could be selected for different purposes: BBO for full sequence prediction, extendable for multiple sequence generation, and BBS for single position prediction with the type of other residues known. ProDCoNN-server outputs the predicted sequence and the probability matrix for each amino acid at each predicted residue. The probability matrix can also be visualized as a sequence logos figure (BBO) or probability distribution plot (BBS). The server is available at: https://prodconn.stat.fsu.edu/.

Matching journals

The top 5 journals account for 50% of the predicted probability mass.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
