Cancer Phenotypes

Cancer is a disease associated with the deregulation of multiple gene networks. Microarray data has permitted researchers to identify gene panel markers for diagnosis or prognosis of cancer but these are not sufficient to make specific mechanistic assertions about phenotype switches. We propose a strategy to identify putative mechanisms of cancer phenotypes by protein-protein interactions (PPI). We first extracted the logic status of a PPI via the relative expression of the corresponding gene pair. The joint association of a gene pair on a cancer phenotype was calculated by entropy minimization and assessed using a support vector machine. A typical predictor is “ If Src high-expression, and Cav-1 low-expression, then cancer.“ We achieved 90% accuracy on test data with a majority of predictions associated with the MAPK pathway, focal adhesion, apoptosis and cell cycle. Our results can aid in the development of phenotype discrimination biomarkers and identification of putative therapeutic interference targets for drug development.

In post-genomic biology, researchers in the field of proteome focus their attention on the networks of protein interactions that control the lives of cells and organisms. Protein-protein interactions play a useful role in dynamic cellular machinery. In this paper, we developed a method to infer protein-protein interactions based on the theory of support vector machine (SVM). For a given pair of proteins, a new strategy of calculating cross-correlation function of mRNA expression profiles was used to encode SVM vectors. We compared the performance with other methods of inferring protein-protein interaction. Results suggested that, through five-fold cross validation, our SVM model achieved a good prediction. It enables us to show that expression profiles in transcription level can be used to distinguish physical or functional interactions of proteins as well as sequence contents. Lastly, we applied our SVM classifier to evaluate data quality of interaction data sets from four high-throughput experiments. The results show that high-throughput experiments sacrifice some accuracy in determination of interactions because of limitation of experiment technologies.

Proteins in living organisms express various important functions by interacting with other proteins and molecules. Therefore, many efforts have been made to investigate and predict protein-protein interactions (PPIs). Analysis of strengths of PPIs is also important because such strengths are involved in functionality of proteins. In this paper, we propose several feature space mappings from protein pairs using protein domain information to predict strengths of PPIs. Moreover, we perform computational experiments employing two machine learning methods, support vector regression (SVR) and relevance vector machine (RVM), for dataset obtained from biological experiments. The prediction results showed that both SVR and RVM with our proposed features outperformed the best existing method.

AbstractProtein-protein interactions regulate many essential biological processes and play an important role in health and disease. The process of experimentally charac-terizing protein residues that contribute the most to protein-protein interaction affin-ity and specificity is laborious. Thus, developing models that accurately characterize hotspots at protein-protein interfaces provides important information about how to inhibit therapeutically relevant protein-protein interactions. During the course of the ICERM WiSDM workshop 2017, we combined the KFC2a protein-protein interaction hotspot prediction features with Rosetta scoring function terms and interface filter metrics. A 2-way and 3-way forward selection strategy was employed to train support vector machine classifiers, as was a reverse feature elimination strategy. From these results, we identified subsets of KFC2a and Rosetta combined features that show improved performance over KFC2a features alone.

Protein-protein interactions play various essential roles in cellular systems. Many methods have been developed for inference of protein-protein interactions from protein sequence data. In this paper, the authors focus on methods based on domain-domain interactions, where a domain is defined as a region within a protein that either performs a specific function or constitutes a stable structural unit. In these methods, the probabilities of domain-domain interactions are inferred from known protein-protein interaction data and protein domain data, and then prediction of interactions is performed based on these probabilities and contents of domains of given proteins. This paper overviews several fundamental methods, which include association method, expectation maximization-based method, support vector machine-based method, linear programming-based method, and conditional random field-based method. This paper also reviews a simple evolutionary model of protein domains, which yields a scale-free distribution of protein domains. By combining with a domain-based protein interaction model, a scale-free distribution of protein-protein interaction networks is also derived.

Protein-protein interactions play an important role in biological and cellular processes. Biochemistry experiment is the most reliable approach identifying protein-protein interactions, but it is time-consuming and expensive. It is one of the important reasons why there is only a little fraction of complete protein-protein interactions networks available by far. Hence, accurate computational methods are in a great need to predict protein-protein interactions. In this work, we proposed a new weighted feature fusion algorithm for protein-protein interactions prediction, which extracts both protein sequence feature and evolutionary feature, for the purpose to use both global and local information to identify protein-protein interactions. The method employs maximum margin criterion for feature selection and support vector machine for classification. Experimental results on 11188 protein pairs showed that our method had better performance and robustness. Performed on the independent database of Helicobacter pylori, the method achieved 99.59% sensitivity and 93.66% prediction accuracy, while the maximum margin criterion is 88.03%. The results indicated that our method was more efficient in predicting protein-protein interaction compared with other six state-of-the-art peer methods.

Over the last 10 years, protein–protein interactions (PPIs) have shown increasing potential as new therapeutic targets. As a consequence, PPIs are today the most screened target class in high-throughput screening (HTS). The development of broad chemical libraries dedicated to these particular targets is essential; however, the chemical space associated with this ‘high-hanging fruit’ is still under debate. Here, we analyse the properties of 40 non-redundant small molecules present in the 2P2I database ( http://2p2idb.cnrs-mrs.fr/ ) to define a general profile of orthosteric inhibitors and propose an original protocol to filter general screening libraries using a support vector machine (SVM) with 11 standard D ragon molecular descriptors. The filtering protocol has been validated using external datasets from PubChem BioAssay and results from in-house screening campaigns . This external blind validation demonstrated the ability of the SVM model to reduce the size of the filtered chemical library by eliminating up to 96% of the compounds as well as enhancing the proportion of active compounds by up to a factor of 8. We believe that the resulting chemical space identified in this paper will provide the scientific community with a concrete support to search for PPI inhibitors during HTS campaigns.

Noise Data

Protein-Protein Interactions (PPIs) play a key role in many biological systems. Thus, identifying PPIs is critical for understanding cellular processes. Many experimental techniques were applied to predict PPIs. The data extracted using these techniques are incomplete and noisy. In this regard, a number of computational methods include machine learning classification techniques have been developed to reduce the noise data and predict new PPIs. Since, using regression methods to solve classification problems has good results in other applications. Therefore, in this paper, a regression view is applied to the PPI prediction classification problem, so a new approach is proposed using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Support Vector Regression (SVR) which has been improved by a new Parallel Hierarchical Cube Search (PHCS) method. Firstly, PCA algorithm is implemented to select an optimal subset of features which leads to reduce processing time and to lessen the effect of noise. Then, the PPIs would be predicted, by using SVR. To get a better performance of SVR, a new PHCS method has been applied to select the appropriate values of SVR parameters. The obtained classification accuracy of the proposed method is 74.505% on KUPS (The University of Kansas Proteomics Service) dataset which outperforms the other methods.

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.

Background: Accumulating experimental studies have indicated that disease comorbidity causes additional pain to patients and leads to the failure of standard treatments compared to patients who have a single disease. Therefore, accurate prediction of potential comorbidity is essential to design more efficient treatment strategies. However, only a few disease comorbidities have been discovered in the clinic. Objective: In this work, we propose PCHS, an effective computational method for predicting disease comorbidity. Materials and Methods: We utilized the HeteSim measure to calculate the relatedness score for different disease pairs in the global heterogeneous network, which integrates six networks based on biological information, including disease-disease associations, drug-drug interactions, protein-protein interactions and associations among them. We built the prediction model using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) based on the HeteSim scores. Results and Conclusion: The results showed that PCHS performed significantly better than previous state-of-the-art approaches and achieved an AUC score of 0.90 in 10-fold cross-validation. Furthermore, some of our predictions have been verified in literatures, indicating the effectiveness of our method.

Drug discovery has focused on the paradigm “one drug, one target” for a long time. However, small molecules can act at multiple macromolecular targets, which serves as the basis for drug repurposing. In an effort to expand the target space, and given advances in X-ray crystallography, protein-protein interactions have become an emerging focus area of drug discovery enterprises. Proteins interact with other biomolecules and it is this intricate network of interactions that determines the behavior of the system and its biological processes. In this review, we briefly discuss networks in disease, followed by computational methods for protein-protein complex prediction. Computational methodologies and techniques employed towards objectives such as protein-protein docking, protein-protein interactions, and interface predictions are described extensively. Docking aims at producing a complex between proteins, while interface predictions identify a subset of residues on one protein that could interact with a partner, and protein-protein interaction sites address whether two proteins interact. In addition, approaches to predict hot spots and binding sites are presented along with a representative example of our internal project on the chemokine CXC receptor 3 B-isoform and predictive modeling with IP10 and PF4.
