Predicting peptide-mediated interactions on a genome-wide scale.

ABSTRACT: We describe a method to predict protein-protein interactions (PPIs) formed between structured domains and short peptide motifs. We take an integrative approach based on consensus patterns of known motifs in databases, structures of domain-motif complexes from the PDB and various sources of non-structural evidence. We combine this set of clues using a Bayesian classifier that reports the likelihood of an interaction and obtain significantly improved prediction performance when compared to individual sources of evidence and to previously reported algorithms. Our Bayesian approach was integrated into PrePPI, a structure-based PPI prediction method that, so far, has been limited to interactions formed between two structured domains. Around 80,000 new domain-motif mediated interactions were predicted, thus enhancing PrePPI's coverage of the human protein interactome.

Project description:Small molecules play a critical role in modulating biological systems. Knowledge of chemical-protein interactions helps address fundamental and practical questions in biology and medicine. However, with the rapid emergence of newly sequenced genes, the endogenous or surrogate ligands of a vast number of proteins remain unknown. Homology modeling and machine learning are two major methods for assigning new ligands to a protein but mostly fail when sequence homology between an unannotated protein and those with known functions or structures is low. In this study, we develop a new deep learning framework to predict chemical binding to evolutionary divergent unannotated proteins, whose ligand cannot be reliably predicted by existing methods. By incorporating evolutionary information into self-supervised learning of unlabeled protein sequences, we develop a novel method, distilled sequence alignment embedding (DISAE), for the protein sequence representation. DISAE can utilize all protein sequences and their multiple sequence alignment (MSA) to capture functional relationships between proteins without the knowledge of their structure and function. Followed by the DISAE pretraining, we devise a module-based fine-tuning strategy for the supervised learning of chemical-protein interactions. In the benchmark studies, DISAE significantly improves the generalizability of machine learning models and outperforms the state-of-the-art methods by a large margin. Comprehensive ablation studies suggest that the use of MSA, sequence distillation, and triplet pretraining critically contributes to the success of DISAE. The interpretability analysis of DISAE suggests that it learns biologically meaningful information. We further use DISAE to assign ligands to human orphan G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and to cluster the human GPCRome by integrating their phylogenetic and ligand relationships. The promising results of DISAE open an avenue for exploring the chemical landscape of entire sequenced genomes.
