Abstract

AbstractGreat improvement has been brought to protein tertiary structure prediction through deep learning. It is important but very challenging to accurately rank and score decoy structures predicted by different models. CASP14 results show that existing quality assessment (QA) approaches lag behind the development of protein structure prediction methods, where almost all existing QA models degrade in accuracy when the target is a decoy of high quality. How to give an accurate assessment to high-accuracy decoys is particularly useful with the available of accurate structure prediction methods. Here we propose a fast and effective single-model QA method, QATEN, which can evaluate decoys only by their topological characteristics and atomic types. Our model uses graph neural networks and attention mechanisms to evaluate global and amino acid level scores, and uses specific loss functions to constrain the network to focus more on high-precision decoys and high-precision protein domains. On the CASP14 evaluation decoys, QATEN performs better than other QA models under all correlation coefficients when targeting averageLDDT. QATEN shows promising performance when considering only high-accuracy decoys. Compared to the embedded evaluation modules of predictedCα-RMSD(pRMSD) in RosettaFold and predictedLDDT(pLDDT) in AlphaFold2, QATEN is complementary and capable of achieving better evaluation on some decoy structures generated by AlphaFold2 and RosettaFold themselves. These results suggest that the new QATEN approach can be used as a reliable independent assessment algorithm for high-accuracy protein structure decoys.
