ABSTRACTMotivationSubcellular location plays an essential role in protein synthesis, transport, and secretion, thus it is an important step in understanding the mechanisms of trait-related proteins. Generally, homology methods provide reliable homology-based results with small E-values. We must resort to pattern recognition algorithms (SVM, Fisher discriminant, KNN, random forest, etc.) for proteins that do not share significant homologous domains with known proteins. However, satisfying results are seldom obtained.ResultsHere, a novel hybrid method “Basic Local Alignment Search Tool+Smith-Waterman+Needleman-Wunsch” or BLAST+SWNW, has been obtained by integrating a loosened E-value Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) with the Smith-Waterman (SW) and Needleman-Wunsch (NW) algorithms, and this method has been introduced to predict protein subcellular localization in eukaryotes. When tested on Dataset I and Dataset II, BLAST+SWNW showed an average accuracy of 97.18% and 99.60%, respectively, surpassing the performance of other algorithms in predicting eukaryotic protein subcellular localization.Availability and ImplementationBLAST+SWNW is an open source collaborative initiative available in the GitHub repository (https://github.com/ZHANGDAHAN/BLAST-SWNW-for-SLP or http://202.206.64.158:80/link/72016CAC26E4298B3B7E0EAF42288935)[email protected]; [email protected] InformationSupplementary data are available at PLOS Computational Biology online.

In this study, the Agrobacterium infection medium, infection duration, detergent, and cell density were optimized. The sorghum-based infection medium (SbIM), 10-20 min infection time, addition of 0.01% Silwet L-77, and Agrobacterium optical density at 600 nm (OD600), improved the competence of onion epidermal cells to support Agrobacterium infection at >90% efficiency. Cyclin-dependent kinase D-2 (CDKD-2) and cytochrome c-type biogenesis protein (CYCH), protein-protein interactions were localized. The optimized procedure is a quick and efficient system for examining protein subcellular localization and protein-protein interaction.

Knowledge of protein subcellular localization is vitally important for both basic research and drug development. With the avalanche of protein sequences emerging in the post-genomic age, it is highly desired to develop computational tools for timely and effectively identifying their subcellular localization based on the sequence information alone. Recently, a predictor called “pLoc-mPlant” was developed for identifying the subcellular localization of plant proteins. Its performance is overwhelmingly better than that of the other predictors for the same purpose, particularly in dealing with multi-label systems in which some proteins, called “multiplex proteins”, may simultaneously occur in two or more subcellular locations. Although it is indeed a very powerful predictor, more efforts are definitely needed to further improve it. This is because pLoc-mPlant was trained by an extremely skewed dataset in which some subsets (i.e., the protein numbers for some subcellular locations) were more than 10 times larger than the others. Accordingly, it cannot avoid the biased consequence caused by such an uneven training dataset. To overcome such biased consequence, we have developed a new and bias-free predictor called pLoc_bal-mPlant by balancing the training dataset. Cross-validation tests on exactly the same experimentconfirmed dataset have indicated that the proposed new predictor is remarkably superior to pLoc-mPlant, the existing state-of-the-art predictor in identifying the subcellular localization of plant proteins. To maximize the convenience for the majority of experimental scientists, a user-friendly web-server for the new predictor has been established at http://www.jci-bioinfo.cn/pLoc_bal-mPlant/, by which users can easily get their desired results without the need to go through the detailed mathematics.
