Project description:P311 is a highly conserved multifunctional protein. However, it does not belong to any established family of proteins, and its biological function has not been entirely determined. This study aims to reveal the unknown molecular and cellular function of P311. OCG (Overlapping Cluster Generator) is a clustering method used to partition a protein-protein network into overlapping clusters. Multifunctional proteins are at the intersection of relevant clusters. DAVID is an analytic tool used to extract biological meaning from a large protein list. Here we presented OD2 (OCG + DAVID + 2 human PPI datasets), a novel strategy to increase the likelihood to identify biological functions most pertinent to the multifunctional proteins. The principle of OD2 is that OCG prepares the protein lists from multifunctional protein relevant overlapping clusters, for a functional enrichment analysis by DAVID, and the similar functional enrichments, which occurs simultaneously when analyzing two human PPI datasets, are supposed to be the predicted functions. By applying OD2 to two reconstructed human PPI datasets, we supposed the function of the P311 in inflammatory responses, cell proliferation and coagulation, which were confirmed by the following biological experiments. Collectively, our study preliminarily found that P311 could play a role in inflammatory responses, cell proliferation and coagulation. Further studies are required to validate and elucidate the underlying mechanism.

Project description:The previous survey identified 70 basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proteins, but it was proved to be incomplete, and the functional information and regulatory networks of frog bHLH transcription factors were not fully known. Therefore, we conducted an updated genome-wide survey in the Xenopus tropicalis genome project databases and identified 105 bHLH sequences. Among the retrieved 105 sequences, phylogenetic analyses revealed that 103 bHLH proteins belonged to 43 families or subfamilies with 46, 26, 11, 3, 15, and 4 members in the corresponding supergroups. Next, gene ontology (GO) enrichment analyses showed 65 significant GO annotations of biological processes and molecular functions and KEGG pathways counted in frequency. To explore the functional pathways, regulatory gene networks, and/or related gene groups coding for Xenopus tropicalis bHLH proteins, the identified bHLH genes were put into the databases KOBAS and STRING to get the signaling information of pathways and protein interaction networks according to available public databases and known protein interactions. From the genome annotation and pathway analysis using KOBAS, we identified 16 pathways in the Xenopus tropicalis genome. From the STRING interaction analysis, 68 hub proteins were identified, and many hub proteins created a tight network or a functional module within the protein families.

Project description:Diabetes is one of the most prevalent diseases in the world. Type 1 diabetes is characterized by the failure of synthesizing and secreting of insulin because of destroyed pancreatic ?-cells. Type 2 diabetes, on the other hand, is described by the decreased synthesis and secretion of insulin because of the defect in pancreatic ?-cells as well as by the failure of responding to insulin because of malfunctioning of insulin signaling. In order to understand the signaling mechanisms of responding to insulin, it is necessary to identify all components in the insulin signaling network. Here, an interaction network consisting of proteins that have statistically high probability of being biologically related to insulin signaling in Homo sapiens was reconstructed by integrating Gene Ontology (GO) annotations and interactome data. Furthermore, within this reconstructed network, interacting proteins which mediate the signal from insulin hormone to glucose transportation were identified using linear paths. The identification of key components functioning in insulin action on glucose metabolism is crucial for the efforts of preventing and treating type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Project description:Protein interactions play an essential role in studying living systems and life phenomena. A considerable amount of literature has been published on analyzing and predicting protein interactions, such as support vector machine method, homology-based method and similarity-based method, each has its pros and cons. Most existing methods for predicting protein interactions require prior domain knowledge, making it difficult to effectively extract protein features. Single method is dissatisfactory in predicting protein interactions, declaring the need for a comprehensive method that combines the advantages of various methods. On this basis, a deep ensemble learning method called EnAmDNN (Ensemble Deep Neural Networks with Attention Mechanism) is proposed to predict protein interactions which is an appropriate candidate for comprehensive learning, combining multiple models, and considering the advantages of various methods. Particularly, it encode protein sequences by the local descriptor, auto covariance, conjoint triad, pseudo amino acid composition and combine the vector representation of each protein in the protein interaction network. Then it takes advantage of the multi-layer convolutional neural networks to automatically extract protein features and construct an attention mechanism to analyze deep-seated relationships between proteins. We set up four different structures of deep learning models. In the ensemble learning model, second layer data sets are generated with five-fold cross validation from basic learners, then predict the protein interaction network by combining 16 models. Results on five independent PPI data sets demonstrate that EnAmDNN achieves superior prediction performance than other comparing methods.

Project description:Although global analyses of transcription factor binding provide one view of potential transcriptional regulatory networks, regulation also occurs at levels distinct from transcription factor binding. Here, we use a genetic approach to identify targets of transcription factors in yeast and reconstruct a functional regulatory network. First, we profiled transcriptional responses in S. cerevisiae strains with individual deletions of 263 transcription factors. Then we used directed-weighted graph modeling and regulatory epistasis analysis to identify indirect regulatory relationships between these transcription factors, and from this we reconstructed a functional transcriptional regulatory network. The enrichment of promoter motifs and Gene Ontology annotations provide insight into the biological functions of the transcription factors. Data values are X scores and corresponding p-values derived using an error model. We profiled transcriptional responses upon the individual deletion of more than 260 TFs. We used a directed-weighted graph modelling approach and regulatory epistasis analysis to identify indirect regulatory relationships, and thus constructed a refined, functional transcriptional regulatory network.

Project description:Protein interaction networks have become a tool to study biological processes, either for predicting molecular functions or for designing proper new drugs to regulate the main biological interactions. Furthermore, such networks are known to be organized in sub-networks of proteins contributing to the same cellular function. However, the protein function prediction is not accurate and each protein has traditionally been assigned to only one function by the network formalism. By considering the network of the physical interactions between proteins of the yeast together with a manual and single functional classification scheme, we introduce a method able to reveal important information on protein function, at both micro- and macro-scale. In particular, the inspection of the properties of oscillatory dynamics on top of the protein interaction network leads to the identification of misclassification problems in protein function assignments, as well as to unveil correct identification of protein functions. We also demonstrate that our approach can give a network representation of the meta-organization of biological processes by unraveling the interactions between different functional classes.

Project description:Identifying protein complexes from protein-protein interaction networks (PPINs) is important to understand the science of cellular organization and function. However, PPINs produced by high-throughput studies have high false discovery rate and only represent snapshot interaction information. Reconstructing higher quality PPINs is essential for protein complex identification. Here we present a Multi-Level PPINs reconstruction (MLPR) method for protein complexes detection. From existing PPINs, we generated full combinations of every two proteins. These protein pairs are represented as a vector which includes six different sources. Then the protein pairs with same vector are mapped to the same fingerprint ID. A fingerprint similarity network is constructed next, in which a vertex represents a protein pair fingerprint ID and each vertex is connected to its top 10 similar fingerprints by edges. After random walking on the fingerprints similarity network, each vertex got a score at the steady state. According to the score of protein pairs, we considered the top ranked ones as reliable PPI and the score as the weight of edge between two distinct proteins. Finally, we expanded clusters starting from seeded vertexes based on the new weighted reliable PPINs. Applying our method on the yeast PPINs, our algorithm achieved higher F-value in protein complexes detection than the-state-of-the-art methods. The interactions in our reconstructed PPI network have more significant biological relevance than the exiting PPI datasets, assessed by gene ontology. In addition, the performance of existing popular protein complexes detection methods are significantly improved on our reconstructed network.

Project description:BackgroundCreeping bentgrass (Agrostis soionifera) is a perennial grass of Gramineae, belonging to cold season turfgrass, but has poor disease resistance. Up to now, little is known about the induced systemic resistance (ISR) mechanism, especially the relevant functional proteins, which is important to disease resistance of turfgrass. Achieving more information of proteins of infected creeping bentgrass is helpful to understand the ISR mechanism.ResultsWith BDO treatment, creeping bentgrass seedlings were grown, and the ISR response was induced by infecting Rhizoctonia solani. High-quality protein sequences of creeping bentgrass seedlings were obtained. Some of protein sequences were functionally annotated according to the database alignment while a large part of the obtained protein sequences was left non-annotated. To treat the non-annotated sequences, a prediction model based on convolutional neural network was established with the dataset from Uniport database in three domains to acquire good performance, especially the higher false positive control rate. With established model, the non-annotated protein sequences of creeping bentgrass were analyzed to annotate proteins relevant to disease-resistance response and signal transduction.ConclusionsThe prediction model based on convolutional neural network was successfully applied to select good candidates of the proteins with functions relevant to the ISR mechanism from the protein sequences which cannot be annotated by database alignment. The waste of sequence data can be avoided, and research time and labor will be saved in further research of protein of creeping bentgrass by molecular biology technology. It also provides reference for other sequence analysis of turfgrass disease-resistance research.

Project description:Eriocheir sinensis is an economically important aquatic animal. Its regulatory mechanisms underlying many biological processes are still vague due to the lack of systematic analysis tools. The protein-protein interaction network (PIN) is an important tool for the systematic analysis of regulatory mechanisms. In this work, a novel machine learning method, DGO-SVM, was applied to predict the protein-protein interaction (PPI) in E. sinensis, and its PIN was reconstructed. With the domain, biological process, molecular functions and subcellular locations of proteins as the features, DGO-SVM showed excellent performance in Bombyx mori, humans and five aquatic crustaceans, with 92-96% accuracy. With DGO-SVM, the PIN of E. sinensis was reconstructed, containing 14,703 proteins and 7,243,597 interactions, in which 35,604 interactions were associated with 566 novel proteins mainly involved in the response to exogenous stimuli, cellular macromolecular metabolism and regulation. The DGO-SVM demonstrated that the biological process, molecular functions and subcellular locations of proteins are significant factors for the precise prediction of PPIs. We reconstructed the largest PIN for E. sinensis, which provides a systematic tool for the regulatory mechanism analysis. Furthermore, the novel-protein-related PPIs in the PIN may provide important clues for the mechanism analysis of the underlying specific physiological processes in E. sinensis.
