PaleAle 5.0: prediction of protein relative solvent accessibility by deep learning.

abstract：:Effects exerted by heavy isotope substitution in biopolymers on the functioning of whole organisms have not been investigated. We report on the decrease of permissive temperature of nematodes fed with bacteria containing 5,5-D2-lysine. We synthesized 5,5-dideuterolysine and, taking advantage of lysine being an essenti...
