As glycobiology and computational engineering continue to advance, Computational Glycoengineering-assisted Specific Modeling is beginning to come into the public eye. Antigens are key to recognition by the immune system, which plays an important function in immunotherapy. With the help of immunoinformatics tools, CD BioGlyco provides high-quality Carbohydrate Antigen Development services. Whether you need to predict antigenic determinants, predict conformational epitopes, predict antigen-antibody binding sites, or design new carbohydrate antigens, our experienced carbohydrate development team caters to all your needs.
CD BioGlyco has professional data analysts who collect and organize relevant data sets. Relying on advanced algorithms and sorting calculations, our researchers perform the initial organization of the collected data.
Based on deep learning, our lab provides predictive modeling services. Our researchers use large datasets to train and optimize models to achieve high accuracy and predictability.
The basic idea of neural networks is to learn complex relationships between variables by mimicking the connections of biological neurons. Deep learning incorporates multiple hidden layers to analyze relationships implicit in large, high-dimensional datasets. Our well-trained models can be used to make predictions and inferences about completely unseen and new antigens.
Based on homology models constructed by our professional team, CD BioGlyco provides reliable antigen structure prediction services by molecular dynamics simulations, molecular docking, and binding free energy calculations.
CD BioGlyco provides professional B-cell epitope prediction services including sequence-based or structure-based methods. Moreover, our lab provides high-quality prediction of T-cell epitopes and neoantigens using computational tools.

Results: This study used computational modeling to predict antigenic structures and conformational epitopes. Combining a large number of candidate features and a database, the researchers built an integrated learning model based on a weighted scoring strategy. Moreover, the researchers ranked and evaluated the features in the dataset for fast prediction. The results show that the model is very useful for predicting antigenic conformational epitopes.
