Abstract excerpt
Colorectal cancer (CRC) pathogenesis is driven by complex protein-protein interactions (PPIs) between the host and the gut microbiome, yet these molecular dialogs remain largely unmapped. This study utilizes a Deep Learning framework, enhanced by protein structure embeddings, to predict approximately 8.9 billion interspecies PPIs from clinical metagenomic data. The model achieved high accuracy with an AUROC of...
