ABSTRACT
Proteins, as crucial macromolecules performing diverse biological roles, are central to numerous biological processes. The ability to predict changes in protein thermal stability due to mutations is vital for both biomedical research and industrial applications. However, existing experimental methods are often costly and labor-intensive, while structure-based prediction methods demand significant computational resources. In this study, we introduce PON-Tm, a novel sequence-based method for predicting mutation-induced thermal stability variations in proteins. PON-Tm not only incorporates features predicted by a protein language model from protein sequences but also considers environmental factors such as pH and the thermostability of the wild-type protein. To evaluate the effectiveness of PON-Tm, we compared its performance to four well-established methods, and PON-Tm exhibited superior predictive capabilities. Furthermore, to facilitate easy access and utilization, we have developed a web server.
