Overlapping Structures Detection in Protein-Protein Interaction Networks Using Community Detection Algorithm Based on Neighbor Clustering Coefficient.

ABSTRACT: With the rapid development of bioinformatics, researchers have applied community detection algorithms to detect functional modules in protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks that can predict the function of unknown proteins at the molecular level and further reveal the regularity of cell activity. Clusters in a PPI network may overlap where a protein is involved in multiple functional modules. To identify overlapping structures in protein functional modules, this paper proposes a novel overlapping community detection algorithm based on the neighboring local clustering coefficient (NLC). The contributions of the NLC algorithm are threefold: (i) Combine the edge-based community detection method with local expansion in seed selection and the local clustering coefficient of neighboring nodes to improve the accuracy of seed selection; (ii) A method of measuring the distance between edges is improved to make the result of community division more accurate; (iii) A community optimization strategy for the excessive overlapping nodes makes the overlapping structure more reasonable. The experimental results on standard networks, Lancichinetti-Fortunato-Radicchi (LFR) benchmark networks and PPI networks show that the NLC algorithm can improve the Extended modularity (EQ) value and Normalized Mutual Information (NMI) value of the community division, which verifies that the algorithm can not only detect reasonable communities but also identify overlapping structures in networks.

A Central Edge Selection Based Overlapping Community Detection Algorithm for the Detection of Overlapping Structures in Protein?Protein Interaction Networks.

Project description:Overlapping structures of protein?protein interaction networks are very prevalent in different biological processes, which reflect the sharing mechanism to common functional components. The overlapping community detection (OCD) algorithm based on central node selection (CNS) is a traditional and acceptable algorithm for OCD in networks. The main content of CNS is the central node selection and the clustering procedure. However, the original CNS does not consider the influence among the nodes and the importance of the division of the edges in networks. In this paper, an OCD algorithm based on a central edge selection (CES) algorithm for detection of overlapping communities of protein?protein interaction (PPI) networks is proposed. Different from the traditional CNS algorithms for OCD, the proposed algorithm uses community magnetic interference (CMI) to obtain more reasonable central edges in the process of CES, and employs a new distance between the non-central edge and the set of the central edges to divide the non-central edge into the correct cluster during the clustering procedure. In addition, the proposed CES improves the strategy of overlapping nodes pruning (ONP) to make the division more precisely. The experimental results on three benchmark networks and three biological PPI networks of Mus. musculus, Escherichia coli, and Cerevisiae show that the CES algorithm performs well.

Detecting overlapping protein complexes by rough-fuzzy clustering in protein-protein interaction networks.

Project description:In this paper, we present a novel rough-fuzzy clustering (RFC) method to detect overlapping protein complexes in protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. RFC focuses on fuzzy relation model rather than graph model by integrating fuzzy sets and rough sets, employs the upper and lower approximations of rough sets to deal with overlapping complexes, and calculates the number of complexes automatically. Fuzzy relation between proteins is established and then transformed into fuzzy equivalence relation. Non-overlapping complexes correspond to equivalence classes satisfying certain equivalence relation. To obtain overlapping complexes, we calculate the similarity between one protein and each complex, and then determine whether the protein belongs to one or multiple complexes by computing the ratio of each similarity to maximum similarity. To validate RFC quantitatively, we test it in Gavin, Collins, Krogan and BioGRID datasets. Experiment results show that there is a good correspondence to reference complexes in MIPS and SGD databases. Then we compare RFC with several previous methods, including ClusterONE, CMC, MCL, GCE, OSLOM and CFinder. Results show the precision, sensitivity and separation are 32.4%, 42.9% and 81.9% higher than mean of the five methods in four weighted networks, and are 0.5%, 11.2% and 66.1% higher than mean of the six methods in five unweighted networks. Our method RFC works well for protein complexes detection and provides a new insight of network division, and it can also be applied to identify overlapping community structure in social networks and LFR benchmark networks.

Protein complex detection using interaction reliability assessment and weighted clustering coefficient.

Project description:BackgroundPredicting protein complexes from protein-protein interaction data is becoming a fundamental problem in computational biology. The identification and characterization of protein complexes implicated are crucial to the understanding of the molecular events under normal and abnormal physiological conditions. On the other hand, large datasets of experimentally detected protein-protein interactions were determined using High-throughput experimental techniques. However, experimental data is usually liable to contain a large number of spurious interactions. Therefore, it is essential to validate these interactions before exploiting them to predict protein complexes.ResultsIn this paper, we propose a novel graph mining algorithm (PEWCC) to identify such protein complexes. Firstly, the algorithm assesses the reliability of the interaction data, then predicts protein complexes based on the concept of weighted clustering coefficient. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, the performance of PEWCC was compared to several methods. PEWCC was able to detect more matched complexes than any of the state-of-the-art methods with higher quality scores.ConclusionsThe higher accuracy achieved by PEWCC in detecting protein complexes is a valid argument in favor of the proposed method.

Efficient and accurate identification of protein complexes from protein-protein interaction networks based on the clustering coefficient.

Project description:Identification of protein complexes from protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks is a key problem in PPI mining, solved by parameter-dependent approaches that suffer from small recall rates. Here we introduce GCC-v, a family of efficient, parameter-free algorithms to accurately predict protein complexes using the (weighted) clustering coefficient of proteins in PPI networks. Through comparative analyses with gold standards and PPI networks from Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Homo sapiens, we demonstrate that GCC-v outperforms twelve state-of-the-art approaches for identification of protein complexes with respect to twelve performance measures in at least 85.71% of scenarios. We also show that GCC-v results in the exact recovery of ∼35% of protein complexes in a pan-plant PPI network and discover 144 new protein complexes in Arabidopsis thaliana, with high support from GO semantic similarity. Our results indicate that findings from GCC-v are robust to network perturbations, which has direct implications to assess the impact of the PPI network quality on the predicted protein complexes.

Identifying functional modules in interaction networks through overlapping Markov clustering.

Project description:MotivationIn recent years, Markov clustering (MCL) has emerged as an effective algorithm for clustering biological networks-for instance clustering protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks to identify functional modules. However, a limitation of MCL and its variants (e.g. regularized MCL) is that it only supports hard clustering often leading to an impedance mismatch given that there is often a significant overlap of proteins across functional modules.ResultsIn this article, we seek to redress this limitation. We propose a soft variation of Regularized MCL (R-MCL) based on the idea of iteratively (re-)executing R-MCL while ensuring that multiple executions do not always converge to the same clustering result thus allowing for highly overlapped clusters. The resulting algorithm, denoted soft regularized Markov clustering, is shown to outperform a range of extant state-of-the-art approaches in terms of accuracy of identifying functional modules on three real PPI networks.AvailabilityAll data and codes are freely available upon request.Contactsrini@cse.ohio-state.eduSupplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Community structure detection for overlapping modules through mathematical programming in protein interaction networks.

Project description:Community structure detection has proven to be important in revealing the underlying properties of complex networks. The standard problem, where a partition of disjoint communities is sought, has been continually adapted to offer more realistic models of interactions in these systems. Here, a two-step procedure is outlined for exploring the concept of overlapping communities. First, a hard partition is detected by employing existing methodologies. We then propose a novel mixed integer non linear programming (MINLP) model, known as OverMod, which transforms disjoint communities to overlapping. The procedure is evaluated through its application to protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks of the rat, E. coli, yeast and human organisms. Connector nodes of hard partitions exhibit topological and functional properties indicative of their suitability as candidates for multiple module membership. OverMod identifies two types of connector nodes, inter and intra-connector, each with their own particular characteristics pertaining to their topological and functional role in the organisation of the network. Inter-connector proteins are shown to be highly conserved proteins participating in pathways that control essential cellular processes, such as proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis and their differences with intra-connectors is highlighted. Many of these proteins are shown to possess multiple roles of distinct nature through their participation in different network modules, setting them apart from proteins that are simply 'hubs', i.e. proteins with many interaction partners but with a more specific biochemical role.

Detecting overlapping protein complexes in protein-protein interaction networks.

Project description:We introduce clustering with overlapping neighborhood expansion (ClusterONE), a method for detecting potentially overlapping protein complexes from protein-protein interaction data. ClusterONE-derived complexes for several yeast data sets showed better correspondence with reference complexes in the Munich Information Center for Protein Sequence (MIPS) catalog and complexes derived from the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) than the results of seven popular methods. The results also showed a high extent of functional homogeneity.

A Seed Expansion Graph Clustering Method for Protein Complexes Detection in Protein Interaction Networks.

Project description:Most proteins perform their biological functions while interacting as complexes. The detection of protein complexes is an important task not only for understanding the relationship between functions and structures of biological network, but also for predicting the function of unknown proteins. We present a new nodal metric by integrating its local topological information. The metric reflects its representability in a larger local neighborhood to a cluster of a protein interaction (PPI) network. Based on the metric, we propose a seed-expansion graph clustering algorithm (SEGC) for protein complexes detection in PPI networks. A roulette wheel strategy is used in the selection of the seed to enhance the diversity of clustering. For a candidate node u, we define its closeness to a cluster C, denoted as NC(u, C), by combing the density of a cluster C and the connection between a node u and C. In SEGC, a cluster which initially consists of only a seed node, is extended by adding nodes recursively from its neighbors according to the closeness, until all neighbors fail the process of expansion. We compare the F-measure and accuracy of the proposed SEGC algorithm with other algorithms on Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein interaction networks. The experimental results show that SEGC outperforms other algorithms under full coverage.

Multifunctional proteins revealed by overlapping clustering in protein interaction network.

Project description:MotivationMultifunctional proteins perform several functions. They are expected to interact specifically with distinct sets of partners, simultaneously or not, depending on the function performed. Current graph clustering methods usually allow a protein to belong to only one cluster, therefore impeding a realistic assignment of multifunctional proteins to clusters.ResultsHere, we present Overlapping Cluster Generator (OCG), a novel clustering method which decomposes a network into overlapping clusters and which is, therefore, capable of correct assignment of multifunctional proteins. The principle of OCG is to cover the graph with initial overlapping classes that are iteratively fused into a hierarchy according to an extension of Newman's modularity function. By applying OCG to a human protein-protein interaction network, we show that multifunctional proteins are revealed at the intersection of clusters and demonstrate that the method outperforms other existing methods on simulated graphs and PPI networks.AvailabilityThis software can be downloaded from http://tagc.univ-mrs.fr/welcome/spip.php?rubrique197Contactbrun@tagc.univ-mrs.frSupplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

An overlapping module identification method in protein-protein interaction networks.

Project description:BackgroundPrevious studies have shown modular structures in PPI (protein-protein interaction) networks. More recently, many genome and metagenome investigations have focused on identifying modules in PPI networks. However, most of the existing methods are insufficient when applied to networks with overlapping modular structures. In our study, we describe a novel overlapping module identification method (OMIM) to address this problem.ResultsOur method is an agglomerative clustering method merging modules according to their contributions to modularity. Nodes that have positive effects on more than two modules are defined as overlapping parts. As well, we designed de-noising steps based on a clustering coefficient and hub finding steps based on nodal weight.ConclusionsThe low computational complexity and few control parameters prove that our method is suitable for large scale PPI network analysis. First, we verified OMIM on a small artificial word association network which was able to provide us with a comprehensive evaluation. Then experiments on real PPI networks from the MIPS Saccharomyces Cerevisiae dataset were carried out. The results show that OMIM outperforms several other popular methods in identifying high quality modular structures.
