On the Reliability and the Limits of Inference of Amino Acid Sequence Alignments
Bioinform（2022）

Abstract
Motivation Alignments are correspondences between sequences. How reliable are alignments of amino acid sequences of proteins, and what inferences about protein relationships can be drawn? Using techniques not previously applied to these questions, by weighting every possible sequence alignment by its posterior probability we derive a formal mathematical expectation, and develop an efficient algorithm for computation of the distance between alternative alignments allowing quantitative comparisons of sequence-based alignments with corresponding reference structure alignments. Results By analyzing the sequences and structures of 1 million protein domain pairs, we report the variation of the expected distance between sequence-based and structure-based alignments, as a function of (Markov time of) sequence divergence. Our results clearly demarcate the 'daylight', 'twilight' and 'midnight' zones for interpreting residue-residue correspondences from sequence information alone. Supplementary information are available at Bioinformatics online.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
