Drug resistance revealed by in silico deep mutational scanning and mutation tracker

As COVID-19 enters its fifth year, it continues to pose a significant global health threat, with the constantly mutating SARS-CoV-2 virus challenging drug effectiveness. A comprehensive understanding of virus-drug interactions is essential for predicting and improving drug effectiveness, especially in combating drug resistance during the pandemic. In response, the Path Laplacian Transformer-based Prospective Analysis Framework (PLFormer-PAF) has been proposed, integrating historical data analysis and predictive modeling strategies. This dual-strategy approach utilizes path topology to transform protein-ligand complexes into topological sequences, enabling the use of advanced large language models for analyzing protein-ligand interactions and enhancing its reliability with factual insights garnered from historical data. It has shown unparalleled performance in predicting binding affinity tasks across various benchmarks, including specific evaluations related to SARS-CoV-2, and assesses the impact of virus mutations on drug efficacy, offering crucial insights into potential drug resistance. The predictions align with observed mutation patterns in SARS-CoV-2, indicating that the widespread use of the Pfizer drug has lead to viral evolution and reduced drug efficacy. PLFormer-PAF's capabilities extend beyond identifying drug-resistant strains, positioning it as a key tool in drug discovery research and the development of new therapeutic strategies against fast-mutating viruses like COVID-19..
