Abstract

Identifying functional protein sites and understanding which and how genetic variations alter them are central questions for bioengineering, medicine, and fundamental biology. I will present three methods we recently developed in the team to assess the outcome of sequence variations on the interactions and functioning of proteins. They leverage the massive amounts of publicly available protein sequence and 3D structure information. Beyond predictive power, they provide interpretable outcomes and data representations.

About the Speaker

Elodie Laine works as an Associate Professor in the Laboratory of Computational and Quantitative Biology (LCQB), at Sorbonne Université (Paris, France). She did her PhD at Institut Pasteur and her post-doc at Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan, both in molecular modeling and structural bioinformatics. At LCQB, she has broaden her expertise to genomics, transcriptomics and protein evolution. She has been developing computational and artificial intelligence methods applicable at large scale to decipher the complexity of the protein sequence-structure-function relationship.
