Existing methods are either specialized on only one class of proteins or developed to predict only a specific type of residue-level attribute. In this work, we develop a new deep-learning method, named Membrane Association and Secondary Structure Predictor (MASSP), for accurately predicting both residue-level structural attributes (secondary structure, location, orientation, and topology) and protein-level structural classes (bitopic, $\alpha$-helical, $\beta$-barrel, and soluble). MASSP integrates a multilayer two-dimensional convolutional neural network (2D-CNN) with a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network into a multitasking framework. Our comparison shows that MASSP performs equally well or better than the state-of-the-art methods in predicting residue-level secondary structures, boundaries of transmembrane segments, and topology. Furthermore, it achieves outstanding accuracy in predicting protein-level structural classes. MASSP automatically distinguishes the structural classes of input sequences and identifies transmembrane segments and topologies if present, making it broadly applicable to different classes of proteins. In summary, MASSP's good performance and broad applicability make it well suited for annotating residue-level attributes and protein-level structural classes at the proteome scale.
