| Summary: | During the past decade, due to the number of proteins in PDB database being increased gradually, traditional methods cannot better understand the function of newly discovered enzymes in chemical reactions. Computational models and protein feature representation for predicting enzymatic function are more important. Most of existing methods for predicting enzymatic function have used protein geometric structure or protein sequence alone. In this paper, the functions of enzymes are predicted from many-sided biological information including sequence information and structure information. Firstly, we extract the mutation information from amino acids sequence by the position scoring matrix and express structure information with amino acids distance and angle. Then, we use histogram to show the extracted sequence and structural features respectively. Meanwhile, we establish a network model of three parallel Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNN) to learn three features of enzyme for function prediction simultaneously, and the outputs are fused through two different architectures. Finally, The proposed model was investigated on a large dataset of 43,843 enzymes from the PDB and achieved 92.34% correct classification when sequence information is considered, demonstrating an improvement compared with the previous result.
