When Geometric Deep Learning Meets Protein Language Models ☀️☀️☀️

This is the official implementation of paper When Geometric Deep Learning Meets Protein Language Models [arxiv]. Our work addresses the gap that has long been ignored by the geometric deep learning community for macromolecules. That is, few studies consider incorporating different protein modalities to promote the representation capacity of geometric neural networks. To overcome this limitation, we propose a simple but effective approach to use the pretrained language models such as ESM [1] and ProtTrans [2] as the feature initializer for 3D geometric networks such as EGNN and GVP-GNN. Extensive experiments in a variety of tasks demonstrate its efficacy and we hope to shed light on the future development of methods on the combination of 1D protein sequences and 3D protein structural data.

Environmental Setup

Before implementing the code, it is necessary to install some packages.

pip install torch    # we use torch 1.10.0 & cu113
pip install atom3d
pip install -U scikit-learn
pip install torch-cluster -f https://data.pyg.org/whl/torch-1.10.0+cu113.html
pip install torch-scatter -f https://data.pyg.org/whl/torch-1.10.0+cu113.html 
pip install torch-sparse -f https://data.pyg.org/whl/torch-1.10.0+cu113.html 
pip install torch-geometric
pip install fair-esm  
pip install pandas openpyxl

The first time you use ESM, the pioneering protein language models, it will automatically download the pretrained checkpoint. Sometimes, this process can be roughly slow. A potential solution is to download the checkpoint weight manually from "https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/fair-esm/models/esm2_t33_650M_UR50D.pt" and then move it to the target file folder (e.g., xxx/torch/hub/checkpoints/).

Data Preparation and Different Downstream Tasks

Here we provide 5 tasks. Among them, the sequential position identification is the toy task to investigate the representation capacity of geometric graph neural networks. The model quality assessment is the single-protein representation problem. The protein-protein interface prediction and the protein-protein rigid-body docking are the protein-protein representation problems. The binding affinity prediction is the protein-molecule representation problem.

Sequential Position Identification

We use the well-curated dataset provided by atom3d [3]. Download and unzip the data from this link. Then put the file split-by-cath-topology/xxx under the folder data/TOY/xxx.

Run the following line to implement the sequential position identification task, where geometric models are required to predict the sequential orders of eac residue in the protein sequence. You can select the argument model from 'egnn', 'gvp' and 'molformer' to test different architectures. You can also examine different mechanisms to build the graph connectivity, including 'knn', 'rball'. Also, tune gpu to different device numbers if you have multiple GPUs.

python main.py TOY --model=egnn  --connect=knn --gpu=0

Modal Quality Assessment

We use a well-constructed dataset offered by atom3d [3]. Download and unzip the data from this link. Then put the file split-by-year/xxx under the folder data/PSR/xxx.

Run the following line to implement the model quality assessment task. Here you can set the additional argument plm=1 to equip the geometric graph neural networks with pretrained protein language models.

python main.py PSR --model=egnn --plm=1

Protein-protein Interface Prediction

We use a well-built dataset offered by atom3d [3]. Download and unzip the data from this link. Then put the file DIPS-split/xxx under the folder data/PPI/xxx.

Run the following line to implement the protein-protein interface prediction task.

python main.py PPI --model=egnn --plm=1

Protein-protein Rigid-body Docking

We use the original code from EquiDock [4] and only change the input features, which is obtained from ESM-2. Notably, this task cannot be perfectly compiled with the implementation of other tasks since the backbone models are totally distinct. However, the core idea are the same. We choose not to post the related code here for code consistency. If anyone finds difficulties in reproducing this task with ESM's features, please full an issue.

Binding Affinity Prediction

We use a widely-accepted dataset provided by atom3d [3]. Download and unzip the data from this link. Then put the file split-by-sequence-identity-{lba_split}xxx under the folder data/LBA/xxx.

Run the following line to implement the binding affinity prediction task. You can change the argument lba-split to 30 or 60 for different sequence identity splits.

python main.py LBA --model=egnn --plm=1  --lba-split=30
