I6mA-DNCP: Computational Identification of DNA N6-Methyladenine Sites in the Rice Genome Using Optimized Dinucleotide-Based Features.


ABSTRACT: DNA N6-methyladenine (6mA) plays an important role in regulating the gene expression of eukaryotes. Accurate identification of 6mA sites may assist in understanding genomic 6mA distributions and biological functions. Various experimental methods have been applied to detect 6mA sites in a genome-wide scope, but they are too time-consuming and expensive. Developing computational methods to rapidly identify 6mA sites is needed. In this paper, a new machine learning-based method, i6mA-DNCP, was proposed for identifying 6mA sites in the rice genome. Dinucleotide composition and dinucleotide-based DNA properties were first employed to represent DNA sequences. After a specially designed DNA property selection process, a bagging classifier was used to build the prediction model. The jackknife test on a benchmark dataset demonstrated that i6mA-DNCP could obtain 84.43% sensitivity, 88.86% specificity, 86.65% accuracy, a 0.734 Matthew's correlation coefficient (MCC), and a 0.926 area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Moreover, three independent datasets were established to assess the generalization ability of our method. Extensive experiments validated the effectiveness of i6mA-DNCP.
