Machine learning screening of bile acid-binding peptides in a peptide database derived from food proteins.

ABSTRACT: Bioactive peptides (BPs) are protein fragments that exhibit a wide variety of physicochemical properties, such as basic, acidic, hydrophobic, and hydrophilic properties; thus, they have the potential to interact with a variety of biomolecules, whereas neither carbohydrates nor fatty acids have such diverse properties. Therefore, BP is considered to be a new generation of biologically active regulators. Recently, some BPs that have shown positive benefits in humans have been screened from edible proteins. In the present study, a new BP screening method was developed using BIOPEP-UWM and machine learning. Training data were initially obtained using high-throughput techniques, and positive and negative datasets were generated. The predictive model was generated by calculating the explanatory variables of the peptides. To understand both site-specific and global characteristics, amino acid features (for site-specific characteristics) and peptide global features (for global characteristics) were generated. The constructed models were applied to the peptide database generated using BIOPEP-UWM, and bioactivity was predicted to explore candidate bile acid-binding peptides. Using this strategy, seven novel bile acid-binding peptides (VFWM, QRIFW, RVWVQ, LIRYTK, NGDEPL, PTFTRKL, and KISQRYQ) were identified. Our novel screening method can be easily applied to industrial applications using whole edible proteins. The proposed approach would be useful for identifying bile acid-binding peptides, as well as other BPs, as long as a large amount of training data can be obtained.

A Novel Machine Learning Strategy for the Prediction of Antihypertensive Peptides Derived from Food with High Efficiency.

Project description:Strategies to screen antihypertensive peptides with high throughput and rapid speed will doubtlessly contribute to the treatment of hypertension. Food-derived antihypertensive peptides can reduce blood pressure without side effects. In the present study, a novel model based on the eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) algorithm was developed and compared with the dominating machine learning models. To further reflect on the reliability of the method in a real situation, the optimized XGBoost model was utilized to predict the antihypertensive degree of the k-mer peptides cutting from six key proteins in bovine milk, and the peptide-protein docking technology was introduced to verify the findings. The results showed that the XGBoost model achieved outstanding performance, with an accuracy of 86.50% and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 94.11%, which were better than the other models. Using the XGBoost model, the prediction of antihypertensive peptides derived from milk protein was consistent with the peptide-protein docking results, and was more efficient. Our results indicate that using the XGBoost algorithm as a novel auxiliary tool is feasible to screen for antihypertensive peptides derived from food, with high throughput and high efficiency.

Lipophilicity prediction of peptides and peptide derivatives by consensus machine learning.

Project description:Lipophilicity prediction is routinely applied to small molecules and presents a working alternative to experimental log?P or log?D determination. For compounds outside the domain of classical medicinal chemistry these predictions lack accuracy, advocating the development of bespoke in silico approaches. Peptides and their derivatives and mimetics fill the structural gap between small synthetic drugs and genetically engineered macromolecules. Here, we present a data-driven machine learning method for peptide log?D 7.4 prediction. A model for estimating the lipophilicity of short linear peptides consisting of natural amino acids was developed. In a prospective test, we obtained accurate predictions for a set of newly synthesized linear tri- to hexapeptides. Further model development focused on more complex peptide mimetics from the AstraZeneca compound collection. The results obtained demonstrate the applicability of the new prediction model to peptides and peptide derivatives in a log?D 7.4 range of approximately -3 to 5, with superior accuracy to established lipophilicity models for small molecules.

Machine Learning Model Comparison in the Screening of Cholangiocarcinoma Using Plasma Bile Acids Profiles.

Project description:Bile acids (BAs) assessments are garnering increasing interest for their potential involvement in development and progression of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Since machine learning (ML) algorithms are increasingly used for exploring metabolomic profiles, we evaluated performance of some ML models for dissecting patients with CCA or benign biliary diseases according to their plasma BAs profiles. We used ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) for assessing plasma BAs profile in 112 patients (70 CCA, 42 benign biliary diseases). Twelve normalisation procedures were applied, and performance of six ML algorithms were evaluated (logistic regression, k-nearest neighbors, naïve bayes, RBF SVM, random forest, extreme gradient boosting). Naïve bayes, using direct bilirubin concentration for normalisation of BAs, was the ML model displaying better performance in the holdout set, with an Area Under Curve (AUC) of 0.95, 0.79 sensitivity, 1.00 specificity. This model, also characterised by 1.00 positive predictive value and 0.73 negative predictive value, displayed a globally excellent accuracy (86.4%). The accuracy of the other five models was lower, and AUCs ranged 0.75-0.95. Preliminary results of this study show that application of ML to BAs profile analysis can provide a valuable contribution for characterising bile duct diseases and identifying patients with higher likelihood of having malignant pathologies.

Milk bioactive peptide database: A comprehensive database of milk protein-derived bioactive peptides and novel visualization.

Project description:During processing and digestion, milk proteins are disassembled into peptides with an array of biological functions, including antimicrobial, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition, antioxidant, opioid, and immunomodulation. These functions are summarized in numerous reviews, yet information on which peptides have which functions remains scattered across hundreds of research articles. We systematically searched the literature for all instances of bioactive peptides derived from milk proteins from any mammalian source. The data were compiled into a comprehensive database, which can be used to search for specific functions, peptides, or proteins (http://mbpdb.nws.oregonstate.edu). To review this large dataset, the bioactive peptides reported in the literature were visually mapped on the parent protein sequences, providing information on sites with highest abundance of bioactive peptides.

ASPD (Artificially Selected Proteins/Peptides Database): a database of proteins and peptides evolved in vitro.

Project description:ASPD is a new curated database that incorporates data on full-length proteins, protein domains and peptides that were obtained through in vitro directed evolution processes (mainly by means of phage display). At present, the ASPD database contains data on 195 selection experiments, which were described in 112 original papers. For each experiment, the following information is given: (i) description of the target for binding, (ii) description of the protein or peptide which serves as the template for library construction and description of the native protein which binds the target, (iii) links to the major proteomic databases (SWISS-PROT, PDB, PROSITE and ENZYME), (iv) keywords referring to the biological significance of the experiment, (v) aligned sequences of proteins or peptides retrieved through in vitro evolution and relevant native or constructed sequences, (vi) the number of rounds of selection/amplification and (vii) the number of occurrences of clones with each sequence. The literature data include a full reference, a link to the MEDLINE database and the name of the corresponding author with his email address. ASPD has a user-friendly interface which allows for simple queries using the names of proteins and ligands, as well as keywords describing the biological role of the interaction studied, and also for queries based on authors' names. It is also possible to access the database by means of the SRS system, allowing complex queries. There is a BLAST search tool against the ASPD for looking directly for homologous sequences. Research tools of the ASPD allow the analysis of pairwise correlations in the sequences of proteins and peptides selected against one target. The URL for the ASPD database is http://www.sgi.sscc.ru/mgs/gnw/aspd/.

What can machine learning do for antimicrobial peptides, and what can antimicrobial peptides do for machine learning?

Project description:Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a diverse class of well-studied membrane-permeating peptides with important functions in innate host defense. In this short review, we provide a historical overview of AMPs, summarize previous applications of machine learning to AMPs, and discuss the results of our studies in the context of the latest AMP literature. Much work has been recently done in leveraging computational tools to design new AMP candidates with high therapeutic efficacies for drug-resistant infections. We show that machine learning on AMPs can be used to identify essential physico-chemical determinants of AMP functionality, and identify and design peptide sequences to generate membrane curvature. In a broader scope, we discuss the implications of our findings for the discovery of membrane-active peptides in general, and uncovering membrane activity in new and existing peptide taxonomies.

Machine learning designs non-hemolytic antimicrobial peptides.

Project description:Machine learning (ML) consists of the recognition of patterns from training data and offers the opportunity to exploit large structure-activity databases for drug design. In the area of peptide drugs, ML is mostly being tested to design antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), a class of biomolecules potentially useful to fight multidrug-resistant bacteria. ML models have successfully identified membrane disruptive amphiphilic AMPs, however mostly without addressing the associated toxicity to human red blood cells. Here we trained recurrent neural networks (RNN) with data from DBAASP (Database of Antimicrobial Activity and Structure of Peptides) to design short non-hemolytic AMPs. Synthesis and testing of 28 generated peptides, each at least 5 mutations away from training data, allowed us to identify eight new non-hemolytic AMPs against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). These results show that machine learning (ML) can be used to design new non-hemolytic AMPs.

Development of a Sequence Searchable Database of Celiac Disease-Associated Peptides and Proteins for Risk Assessment of Novel Food Proteins.

Project description:Celiac disease (CeD) is an autoimmune enteropathy induced by prolamin and glutelin proteins in wheat, barley, rye, and triticale recognized by genetically restricted major histocompatibility (MHC) receptors. Patients with CeD must avoid consuming these proteins. Regulators in Europe and the United States expect an evaluation of CeD risks from proteins in genetically modified (GM) crops or novel foods for wheat-related proteins. Our database includes evidence-based causative peptides and proteins and two amino acid sequence comparison tools for CeD risk assessment. Sequence entries are based on the review of published studies of specific gluten-reactive T cell activation or intestinal epithelial toxicity. The initial database in 2012 was updated in 2018 and 2022. The current database holds 1,041 causative peptides and 76 representative proteins. The FASTA sequence comparison of 76 representative CeD proteins provides an insurance for possible unreported epitopes. Validation was conducted using protein homologs from Pooideae and non-Pooideae monocots, dicots, and non-plant proteins. Criteria for minimum percent identity and maximum E-scores are guidelines. Exact matches to any of the 1,041 peptides suggest risks, while FASTA alignment to the 76 CeD proteins suggests possible risks. Matched proteins should be tested further by CeD-specific CD4/8+ T cell assays or in vivo challenges before their use in foods.

The influence of the negative-positive ratio and screening database size on the performance of machine learning-based virtual screening.

Project description:The machine learning-based virtual screening of molecular databases is a commonly used approach to identify hits. However, many aspects associated with training predictive models can influence the final performance and, consequently, the number of hits found. Thus, we performed a systematic study of the simultaneous influence of the proportion of negatives to positives in the testing set, the size of screening databases and the type of molecular representations on the effectiveness of classification. The results obtained for eight protein targets, five machine learning algorithms (SMO, Naïve Bayes, Ibk, J48 and Random Forest), two types of molecular fingerprints (MACCS and CDK FP) and eight screening databases with different numbers of molecules confirmed our previous findings that increases in the ratio of negative to positive training instances greatly influenced most of the investigated parameters of the ML methods in simulated virtual screening experiments. However, the performance of screening was shown to also be highly dependent on the molecular library dimension. Generally, with the increasing size of the screened database, the optimal training ratio also increased, and this ratio can be rationalized using the proposed cost-effectiveness threshold approach. To increase the performance of machine learning-based virtual screening, the training set should be constructed in a way that considers the size of the screening database.

Nutrient Estimation from 24-Hour Food Recalls Using Machine Learning and Database Mapping: A Case Study with Lactose.

Project description:The Automated Self-Administered 24-Hour Dietary Assessment Tool (ASA24) is a free dietary recall system that outputs fewer nutrients than the Nutrition Data System for Research (NDSR). NDSR uses the Nutrition Coordinating Center (NCC) Food and Nutrient Database, both of which require a license. Manual lookup of ASA24 foods into NDSR is time-consuming but currently the only way to acquire NCC-exclusive nutrients. Using lactose as an example, we evaluated machine learning and database matching methods to estimate this NCC-exclusive nutrient from ASA24 reports. ASA24-reported foods were manually looked up into NDSR to obtain lactose estimates and split into training (n = 378) and test (n = 189) datasets. Nine machine learning models were developed to predict lactose from the nutrients common between ASA24 and the NCC database. Database matching algorithms were developed to match NCC foods to an ASA24 food using only nutrients ("Nutrient-Only") or the nutrient and food descriptions ("Nutrient + Text"). For both methods, the lactose values were compared to the manual curation. Among machine learning models, the XGB-Regressor model performed best on held-out test data (R2 = 0.33). For the database matching method, Nutrient + Text matching yielded the best lactose estimates (R2 = 0.76), a vast improvement over the status quo of no estimate. These results suggest that computational methods can successfully estimate an NCC-exclusive nutrient for foods reported in ASA24.
