Problem formulation for enzyme active site predictionIn previous studies of enzyme active site identification, the prediction task was typically defined as either (1) amino acid residue token classification in a given enzyme’s amino acid sequence \({{{\mathcal{A}}}}^{E}=\{{a}_{1},\,\ldots,\, {a}_{n}\}\), or (2) graph node \({{{\mathcal{V}}}}_{i}\) classification in a given enzyme’s graph \({{{\mathcal{G}}}}^{E}=\left({{\mathcal{V}}}{{\mathcal{,\, }}}{{\mathcal{E}}}\right)\). These studies mainly emphasized the sequence or structural information of the enzyme, while the consideration of reaction information was insufficient. In this work, we aim to further improve the task of enzyme active site identification by taking into account of the inclusion of the corresponding enzymatic reactions. The input for…
