COPAL: An ensemble of protein-ligand co-folding models enriches preferred ligand predictions for the LuxR-family of quorum sensing receptors
Acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) quorum sensing enables many species of proteobacteria to coordinate collective behaviors. In such systems, a synthase produces an AHL signal, which is sensed by a LuxR-family receptor. Despite extensive genomic annotation of LuxR homologs, preferred AHLs for most receptors remain unknown,...
