Background  Self-interacting Proteins (SIPs) plays a critical role in a series of life function in most living cells. Researches on SIPs are important part of molecular biology. Although numerous SIPs data be provided, traditional experimental methods are labor-intensive, time-consuming and costly and can only yield limited results in real-world needs. Hence,it’s urgent to develop an efficient computational SIPs prediction method to fill the gap. Deep learning technologies have proven to produce subversive performance improvements in many areas, but the effectiveness of deep learning methods for SIPs prediction has not been verified.    Results  We developed a deep learning model for predicting SIPs by constructing a Stacked Long Short-Term Memory (SLSTM) neural network that contains “dropout”. We extracted features from protein sequences using a novel feature extraction scheme that combined Zernike Moments (ZMs) with Position Specific Weight Matrix (PSWM). The capability of the proposed approach was assessed on  S.erevisiae  and  Human  SIPs datasets. The result indicates that the approach based on deep learning can effectively resist data skew and achieve good accuracies of 95.69 and 97.88%, respectively. To demonstrate the progressiveness of deep learning, we compared the results of the SLSTM-based method and the celebrated Support Vector Machine (SVM) method and several other well-known methods on the same datasets.    Conclusion  The results show that our method is overall superior to any of the other existing state-of-the-art techniques. As far as we know, this study first applies deep learning method to predict SIPs, and practical experimental results reveal its potential in SIPs identification.
