MT-ProtBERT is a multi‑task extension of ProtBERT designed for classifying intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) in low‑data settings. It combines Dynamic Window Masking, a Multi‑Scale 1D Convolutional classifier, and auxiliary biochemistry‑informed objectives to jointly optimize masked language modeling and domain‑specific tasks. In experiments on phosphorylation site prediction and protein compaction prediction, MT‑ProtBERT outperforms the RNN‑based IDP model PARROT across all limited‑data tasks.

CausalBind introduces a causal modeling framework for protein‑molecule virtual screening that focuses on sparse cross‑modality interactions rather than dense holistic alignment. By formalizing a V‑structure causal model with Heckman‑style selection, the authors prove that latent interaction concepts are identifiable only under sparsity constraints and propose three implementation variants. Experiments on DUD‑E and LIT‑PCBA benchmarks demonstrate that all variants outperform strong retrieval baselines, especially in early enrichment and out‑of‑distribution generalization.
