However, the development of novel antibody therapeutics is a lengthy and costly process. It is challenging to predict the functional and biophysical properties of antibodies from their amino acid sequence alone, requiring numerous experiments for full characterization. Machine learning, specifically deep representation learning, has emerged as a family of methods that can complement wet lab approaches and accelerate the overall discovery and engineering process. Here, we review advances in antibody sequence representation learning, and how this has improved antibody structure prediction and facilitated antibody optimization. We discuss challenges in the development and implementation of such models, such as the lack of publicly available, well-curated antibody function data and highlight opportunities for improvement. These and future advances in machine learning for antibody sequences have the potential to increase the success rate in developing new therapeutics, resulting in broader access to transformative medicines and improved patient outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":10494,"journal":{"name":"Cold Spring Harbor perspectives in biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":7.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10910360/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138444148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The resulting increases in nitrate production and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have contributed to eutrophication of both ground and surface waters, the growth of oxygen minimum zones in coastal regions, ozone depletion, and rising global temperatures. As stated by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, agriculture releases ∼9.3 Gt CO<sub>2</sub> equivalents per year, of which methane (CH<sub>4</sub>) and nitrous oxide (N<sub>2</sub>O) account for 5.3 Gt CO<sub>2</sub> equivalents. N-pollution and slowing the runaway N-cycle requires a combined effort to replace chemical fertilizers with biological alternatives, which after a 10-yr span of usage could eliminate a minimum of 30% of ag-related GHG emissions (∼1.59 Gt), protect waterways from nitrate pollution, and protect soils from further deterioration. Agritech solutions include bringing biological fertilizers and biological nitrification inhibitors to the marketplace to reduce the microbial conversion of fertilizer nitrogen into GHGs and other toxic intermediates. Worldwide adoption of these plant-derived molecules will substantially elevate nitrogen use efficiency by crops while blocking the dominant source of N<sub>2</sub>O to the atmosphere and simultaneously protecting the biological CH<sub>4</sub> sink. Additional agritech solutions to curtail N-pollution, soil erosion, and deterioration of freshwater supplies include soil-free aquaponics systems that utilize improved microbial inocula to enhance nitrogen use efficiency without GHG production. With adequate and timely investment and scale-up, microbe-based agritech solutions emphasizing N-cycling processes can dramatically reduce GHG emissions on short time lines.</p>","PeriodicalId":10494,"journal":{"name":"Cold Spring Harbor perspectives in biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":7.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10910340/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41107067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Second, variation in the wiring of the brain in humans may underlie variation in all kinds of psychological and behavioral traits, as well as neurodevelopmental disorders.

We address these questions by reviewing genetic features shared across plants and animals that influence prezygotic isolation. Emerging technologies increasingly enable the identification and functional characterization of the genes involved, allowing us to test established theoretical expectations. Embedding these genes in their developmental context will allow further predictions about what constrains the evolution of prezygotic isolation.
