Integrated Multi-Class Classification and Prediction of GPCR Allosteric Modulators by Machine Learning Intelligence.

ABSTRACT: G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest and most diverse group of cell surface receptors that respond to various extracellular signals. The allosteric modulation of GPCRs has emerged in recent years as a promising approach for developing target-selective therapies. Moreover, the discovery of new GPCR allosteric modulators can greatly benefit the further understanding of GPCR cell signaling mechanisms. It is critical but also challenging to make an accurate distinction of modulators for different GPCR groups in an efficient and effective manner. In this study, we focus on an 11-class classification task with 10 GPCR subtype classes and a random compounds class. We used a dataset containing 34,434 compounds with allosteric modulators collected from classical GPCR families A, B, and C, as well as random drug-like compounds. Six types of machine learning models, including support vector machine, naïve Bayes, decision tree, random forest, logistic regression, and multilayer perceptron, were trained using different combinations of features including molecular descriptors, Atom-pair fingerprints, MACCS fingerprints, and ECFP6 fingerprints. The performances of trained machine learning models with different feature combinations were closely investigated and discussed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work on the multi-class classification of GPCR allosteric modulators. We believe that the classification models developed in this study can be used as simple and accurate tools for the discovery and development of GPCR allosteric modulators.

Real-time prediction of smoking activity using machine learning based multi-class classification model.

Project description:Smoking cessation efforts can be greatly influenced by providing just-in-time intervention to individuals who are trying to quit smoking. Detecting smoking activity accurately among the confounding activities of daily living (ADLs) being monitored by the wearable device is a challenging and intriguing research problem. This study aims to develop a machine learning based modeling framework to identify the smoking activity among the confounding ADLs in real-time using the streaming data from the wrist-wearable IMU (6-axis inertial measurement unit) sensor. A low-cost wrist-wearable device has been designed and developed to collect raw sensor data from subjects for the activities. A sliding window mechanism has been used to process the streaming raw sensor data and extract several time-domain, frequency-domain, and descriptive features. Hyperparameter tuning and feature selection have been done to identify best hyperparameters and features respectively. Subsequently, multi-class classification models are developed and validated using in-sample and out-of-sample testing. The developed models obtained predictive accuracy (area under receiver operating curve) up to 98.7% for predicting the smoking activity. The findings of this study will lead to a novel application of wearable devices to accurately detect smoking activity in real-time. It will further help the healthcare professionals in monitoring their patients who are smokers by providing just-in-time intervention to help them quit smoking. The application of this framework can be extended to more preventive healthcare use-cases and detection of other activities of interest.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s11042-022-12349-6.

Allosteric sodium in class A GPCR signaling.

Project description:Despite their functional and structural diversity, G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) share a common mechanism of signal transduction via conformational changes in the seven-transmembrane (7TM) helical domain. New major insights into this mechanism come from the recent crystallographic discoveries of a partially hydrated sodium ion that is specifically bound in the middle of the 7TM bundle of multiple class A GPCRs. This review discusses the remarkable structural conservation and distinct features of the Na(+) pocket in this most populous GPCR class, as well as the conformational collapse of the pocket upon receptor activation. New insights help to explain allosteric effects of sodium on GPCR agonist binding and activation, and sodium's role as a potential co-factor in class A GPCR function.

Supervised Machine Learning Based Multi-Task Artificial Intelligence Classification of Retinopathies.

Project description:Artificial intelligence (AI) classification holds promise as a novel and affordable screening tool for clinical management of ocular diseases. Rural and underserved areas, which suffer from lack of access to experienced ophthalmologists may particularly benefit from this technology. Quantitative optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) imaging provides excellent capability to identify subtle vascular distortions, which are useful for classifying retinovascular diseases. However, application of AI for differentiation and classification of multiple eye diseases is not yet established. In this study, we demonstrate supervised machine learning based multi-task OCTA classification. We sought 1) to differentiate normal from diseased ocular conditions, 2) to differentiate different ocular disease conditions from each other, and 3) to stage the severity of each ocular condition. Quantitative OCTA features, including blood vessel tortuosity (BVT), blood vascular caliber (BVC), vessel perimeter index (VPI), blood vessel density (BVD), foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area (FAZ-A), and FAZ contour irregularity (FAZ-CI) were fully automatically extracted from the OCTA images. A stepwise backward elimination approach was employed to identify sensitive OCTA features and optimal-feature-combinations for the multi-task classification. For proof-of-concept demonstration, diabetic retinopathy (DR) and sickle cell retinopathy (SCR) were used to validate the supervised machine leaning classifier. The presented AI classification methodology is applicable and can be readily extended to other ocular diseases, holding promise to enable a mass-screening platform for clinical deployment and telemedicine.

Allosteric Modulator Leads Hiding in Plain Site: Developing Peptide and Peptidomimetics as GPCR Allosteric Modulators.

Project description:Allosteric modulators (AMs) of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are desirable drug targets because they can produce fewer on-target side effects, improved selectivity, and better biological specificity (e.g., biased signaling or probe dependence) than orthosteric drugs. An underappreciated source for identifying AM leads are peptides and proteins-many of which were evolutionarily selected as AMs-derived from endogenous protein-protein interactions (e.g., transducer/accessory proteins), intramolecular receptor contacts (e.g., pepducins or extracellular domains), endogenous peptides, and exogenous libraries (e.g., nanobodies or conotoxins). Peptides offer distinct advantages over small molecules, including high affinity, good tolerability, and good bioactivity, and specific disadvantages, including relatively poor metabolic stability and bioavailability. Peptidomimetics are molecules that combine the advantages of both peptides and small molecules by mimicking the peptide's chemical features responsible for bioactivity while improving its druggability. This review 1) discusses sources and strategies to identify peptide/peptidomimetic AMs, 2) overviews strategies to convert a peptide lead into more drug-like "peptidomimetic," and 3) critically analyzes the advantages, disadvantages, and future directions of peptidomimetic AMs. While small molecules will and should play a vital role in AM drug discovery, peptidomimetics can complement and even exceed the advantages of small molecules, depending on the target, site, lead, and associated factors.

Prediction of GPCR activity using machine learning.

Project description:GPCRs are the target for one-third of the FDA-approved drugs, however; the development of new drug molecules targeting GPCRs is limited by the lack of mechanistic understanding of the GPCR structure-activity-function relationship. To modulate the GPCR activity with highly specific drugs and minimal side-effects, it is necessary to quantitatively describe the important structural features in the GPCR and correlate them to the activation state of GPCR. In this study, we developed 3 ML approaches to predict the conformation state of GPCR proteins. Additionally, we predict the activity level of GPCRs based on their structure. We leverage the unique advantages of each of the 3 ML approaches, interpretability of XGBoost, minimal feature engineering for 3D convolutional neural network, and graph representation of protein structure for graph neural network. By using these ML approaches, we are able to predict the activation state of GPCRs with high accuracy (91%-95%) and also predict the activation state of GPCRs with low error (MAE of 7.15-10.58). Furthermore, the interpretation of the ML approaches allows us to determine the importance of each of the features in distinguishing between the GPCRs conformations.

Allosteric communication between protomers of dopamine class A GPCR dimers modulates activation.

Project description:A major obstacle to understanding the functional importance of dimerization between class A G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) has been the methodological limitation in achieving control of the identity of the components comprising the signaling unit. We have developed a functional complementation assay that enables such control, and we demonstrate it here for the human dopamine D2 receptor. The minimal signaling unit, two receptors and a single G protein, is maximally activated by agonist binding to a single protomer, which suggests an asymmetrical activated dimer. Inverse agonist binding to the second protomer enhances signaling, whereas agonist binding to the second protomer blunts signaling. Ligand-independent constitutive activation of the second protomer also inhibits signaling. Thus, GPCR dimer function can be modulated by the activity state of the second protomer, which for a heterodimer may be altered in pathological states. Our new methodology also makes possible the characterization of signaling from a defined heterodimer unit.

Positive allosteric modulators to peptide GPCRs: a promising class of drugs.

Project description:The task of finding selective and stable peptide receptor agonists with low molecular weight, desirable pharmacokinetic properties and penetrable to the blood-brain barrier has proven too difficult for many highly coveted drug targets, including receptors for endothelin, vasoactive intestinal peptide and galanin. These receptors and ligand-gated ion channels activated by structurally simple agonists such as glutamate, glycine and GABA present such a narrow chemical space that the design of subtype-selective molecules capable of distinguishing a dozen of glutamate and GABA receptor subtypes and possessing desirable pharmacokinetic properties has also been problematic. In contrast, the pharmaceutical industry demonstrates a remarkable success in developing 1,4-benzodiazepines, positive allosteric modulators (PMAs) of the GABAA receptor. They were synthesized over 50 years ago and discovered to have anxiolytic potential through an in vivo assay. As exemplified by Librium, Valium and Dormicum, these allosteric ligands of the receptor became the world's first blockbuster drugs. Through molecular manipulation over the past 2 decades, including mutations and knockouts of the endogenous ligands or their receptors, and by in-depth physiological and pharmacological studies, more peptide and glutamate receptors have become well-validated drug targets for which an agonist is sought. In such cases, the pursuit for PAMs has also intensified, and a working paradigm to identify drug candidates that are designed as PAMs has emerged. This review, which focuses on the general principles of finding PAMs of peptide receptors in the 21st century, describes the workflow and some of its resulting compounds such as PAMs of galanin receptor 2 that act as potent anticonvulsant agents.

NCodR: A multi-class support vector machine classification to distinguish non-coding RNAs in Viridiplantae.

Project description:Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are major players in the regulation of gene expression. This study analyses seven classes of ncRNAs in plants using sequence and secondary structure-based RNA folding measures. We observe distinct regions in the distribution of AU content along with overlapping regions for different ncRNA classes. Additionally, we find similar averages for minimum folding energy index across various ncRNAs classes except for pre-miRNAs and lncRNAs. Various RNA folding measures show similar trends among the different ncRNA classes except for pre-miRNAs and lncRNAs. We observe different k-mer repeat signatures of length three among various ncRNA classes. However, in pre-miRs and lncRNAs, a diffuse pattern of k-mers is observed. Using these attributes, we train eight different classifiers to discriminate various ncRNA classes in plants. Support vector machines employing radial basis function show the highest accuracy (average F1 of ~96%) in discriminating ncRNAs, and the classifier is implemented as a web server, NCodR.

Prediction of GPCR-Ligand Binding Using Machine Learning Algorithms.

Project description:We propose a novel method that predicts binding of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and ligands. The proposed method uses hub and cycle structures of ligands and amino acid motif sequences of GPCRs, rather than the 3D structure of a receptor or similarity of receptors or ligands. The experimental results show that these new features can be effective in predicting GPCR-ligand binding (average area under the curve [AUC] of 0.944), because they are thought to include hidden properties of good ligand-receptor binding. Using the proposed method, we were able to identify novel ligand-GPCR bindings, some of which are supported by several studies.
