+ # Nanobody Paratope Prediction Dataset
6
+
7
+ ## Dataset Overview
8
+
9
+ This dataset helps predict which amino acids in nanobody sequences directly bind to antigens (these binding sites are called "paratopes"). Knowing the paratope residues is important for understanding how antibodies interact with their targets and for designing better therapeutic nanobodies.
10
+
11
+ ## Data Collection
12
+
13
+ The data is based on solved 3D structures of nanobody-antigen complexes. These structures come from the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and scientific literature. We identified paratope residues by analyzing the contact interfaces between nanobodies and antigens.
14
+
15
+ ## Dataset Structure
16
+
17
+ The dataset is split into training, validation, and test sets.
18
+
19
+ ### File Format
20
+
21
+ CSV files contain these columns:
22
+ - `seq_nanobody`: Nanobody amino acid sequence
23
+ - `seq_antigen`: Antigen amino acid sequence
24
+ - `paratope`: Binary list indicating if each residue is part of the paratope (1) or not (0)
25
+ -
26
+ antigen_embeddings.pt: precomputed antigen sequence embeddings through ESM-2 (650M)
27
+
28
+ ## Uses and Limitations
29
+
30
+ ### Uses
31
+ - Develop models to predict nanobody binding sites
32
+ - Help design and engineer nanobodies
33
+ - Understand nanobody-antigen binding mechanisms
34
+
35
+ ### Limitations
36
+ - Limited number of experimentally solved nanobody-antigen structures
37
+ - Paratope definitions may vary depending on experimental conditions
38
+ - Different antigen types may cause different paratope patterns
39
+
40
+ ## Evaluation Metrics
41
+
42
+ Model performance is evaluated using:
43
+ - Accuracy
44
+ - F1 Score
45
+ - Precision
46
+ - Recall
47
+ - AUROC (Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic curve)
48
+ - AUPRC (Area Under the Precision-Recall Curve)
