Abstract excerpt
RhlA serves as the crucial rate-limiting enzyme in rhamnolipid biosynthesis. In this study, we developed a fusion model named EGCA-Net, integrating a cross-attention mechanism with ESM-2 and graph convolutional network (GCN), to identify candidate RhlA mutants. Via an approach combining deep learning-based activity prediction, Rosetta analysis, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations, four novel...
