Sequence–structure contrastive learning for peptide representation.

Neural Networks · 194, 108148

01 / The problem

Peptide structures are flexible and complex. Sequence representations should benefit from structural information.

02 / The core idea

Align sequence and structure representations by multi-view contrastive learning; transfer structural information into the sequence encoder.

How the idea flows

FIGURE 01 / ORIGINAL CONCEPT SKETCH

  1. Paired sequences + structures
  2. Sequence ∥ structure encoders
  3. Contrastive alignment in training
  4. Sequence-only inference
  5. Representation → downstream task
Original concept sketch; not a reproduced paper figure.

03 / What the public evidence shows

The public author manuscript reports baseline comparisons and ablations of contrastive loss and ordering. Public code provides affinity, cell-penetration and solubility evaluation resources.

04 / Where the claim stops

The linked author manuscript is an earlier version; the final journal citation is listed above. Representation benchmarks do not demonstrate therapeutic efficacy or deployment.
