Detection of dynamic protein complexes through Markov Clustering based on Elephant Herd Optimization Approach.

ABSTRACT: The accessibility of a huge amount of protein-protein interaction (PPI) data has allowed to do research on biological networks that reveal the structure of a protein complex, pathways and its cellular organization. A key demand in computational biology is to recognize the modular structure of such biological networks. The detection of protein complexes from the PPI network, is one of the most challenging and significant problems in the post-genomic era. In Bioinformatics, the frequently employed approach for clustering the networks is Markov Clustering (MCL). Many of the researches for protein complex detection were done on the static PPI network, which suffers from a few drawbacks. To resolve this problem, this paper proposes an approach to detect the dynamic protein complexes through Markov Clustering based on Elephant Herd Optimization Approach (DMCL-EHO). Initially, the proposed method divides the PPI network into a set of dynamic subnetworks under various time points by combining the gene expression data and secondly, it employs the clustering analysis on every subnetwork using the MCL along with Elephant Herd Optimization approach. The experimental analysis was employed on different PPI network datasets and the proposed method surpasses various existing approaches in terms of accuracy measures. This paper identifies the common protein complexes that are expressively enriched in gold-standard datasets and also the pathway annotations of the detected protein complexes using the KEGG database.

Project description:BACKGROUND: During the last decade, a number of authors have shown that the genetic regulation of metabolic networks may follow optimality principles. Optimal control theory has been successfully used to compute optimal enzyme profiles considering simple metabolic pathways. However, applying this optimal control framework to more general networks (e.g. branched networks, or networks incorporating enzyme production dynamics) yields problems that are analytically intractable and/or numerically very challenging. Further, these previous studies have only considered a single-objective framework. RESULTS: In this work we consider a more general multi-objective formulation and we present solutions based on recent developments in global dynamic optimization techniques. We illustrate the performance and capabilities of these techniques considering two sets of problems. First, we consider a set of single-objective examples of increasing complexity taken from the recent literature. We analyze the multimodal character of the associated non linear optimization problems, and we also evaluate different global optimization approaches in terms of numerical robustness, efficiency and scalability. Second, we consider generalized multi-objective formulations for several examples, and we show how this framework results in more biologically meaningful results. CONCLUSIONS: The proposed strategy was used to solve a set of single-objective case studies related to unbranched and branched metabolic networks of different levels of complexity. All problems were successfully solved in reasonable computation times with our global dynamic optimization approach, reaching solutions which were comparable or better than those reported in previous literature. Further, we considered, for the first time, multi-objective formulations, illustrating how activation in metabolic pathways can be explained in terms of the best trade-offs between conflicting objectives. This new methodology can be applied to metabolic networks with arbitrary topologies, non-linear dynamics and constraints.
