Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance could threaten millions of lives in the immediate future. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are an alternative to conventional antibiotics practice against infectious diseases. Despite the potential contribution of AMPs to the antibiotic's world, their development and optimization have encountered serious challenges. Cutting-edge methods with novel and improved selectivity toward resistant targets must be established to create AMPs-driven treatments. Here, we present AMPTrans-lstm, a deep generative network-based approach for the rational design of AMPs. The AMPTrans-lstm pipeline involves pre-training, transfer learning, and module identification. The AMPTrans-lstm model has two sub-models, namely, (long short-term memory) LSTM sampler and Transformer converter, which can be connected in series to make full use of the stability of LSTM and the novelty of Transformer model. These elements could generate AMPs candidates, which can then be tailored for specific applications. By analyzing the generated sequence and trained AMPs, we prove that AMPTrans-lstm can expand the design space of the trained AMPs and produce reasonable and brand-new AMPs sequences. AMPTrans-lstm can generate functional peptides for antimicrobial resistance with good novelty and diversity, so it is an efficient AMPs design tool.
