A feature projection network refines fine-grained sequence signals associated with effector functions, while geometric vector perceptrons characterize inter-residue orientations, distances, and local spatial topology to capture potential structural conformational motifs. To further enable effective cross-modal fusion, we design a cross-modal alignment and feature-tokenized self-attention module. This module enhances consistency between the sequence-semantic and structural-geometric spaces through contrastive learning and models associations between linear functional motifs and spatial conformational patterns at a fine-grained token level.

Extensive evaluations on multiple benchmark datasets show that GeoEPred achieves better predictive performance than existing leading models in T3SE, T4SE, and T6SE prediction tasks, while maintaining stable performance in remote homolog recognition scenarios. Moreover, the modular and extensible architecture of GeoEPred demonstrates strong generalization ability and substantial application potential for genome-scale effector protein discovery.</p></div>
