We report an Osprey-based computational protocol to prospectively identify oncogenic mutations that act via disruption of molecular interactions. It is applicable to analyze both protein-protein and protein-DNA interfaces and has been validated on a dataset of clinically relevant mutations. In addition, it was used to predict previously uncharacterized patient mutations in CDK6 and p16 genes, which were experimentally confirmed to impair complex formation.

"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.
