GTB-PPI: Predict Protein-protein Interactions Based on L1-regularized Logistic Regression and Gradient Tree Boosting.

ABSTRACT: Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are of great importance to understand genetic mechanisms, delineate disease pathogenesis, and guide drug design. With the increase of PPI data and development of machine learning technologies, prediction and identification of PPIs have become a research hotspot in proteomics. In this study, we propose a new prediction pipeline for PPIs based on gradient tree boosting (GTB). First, the initial feature vector is extracted by fusing pseudo amino acid composition (PseAAC), pseudo position-specific scoring matrix (PsePSSM), reduced sequence and index-vectors (RSIV), and autocorrelation descriptor (AD). Second, to remove redundancy and noise, we employ L1-regularized logistic regression (L1-RLR) to select an optimal feature subset. Finally, GTB-PPI model is constructed. Five-fold cross-validation showed that GTB-PPI achieved the accuracies of 95.15% and 90.47% on Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Helicobacter pylori datasets, respectively. In addition, GTB-PPI could be applied to predict the independent test datasets for Caenorhabditis elegans, Escherichia coli, Homo sapiens, and Mus musculus, the one-core PPI network for CD9, and the crossover PPI network for the Wnt-related signaling pathways. The results show that GTB-PPI can significantly improve accuracy of PPI prediction. The code and datasets of GTB-PPI can be downloaded from https://github.com/QUST-AIBBDRC/GTB-PPI/.

Project description:To facilitate advances in personalized medicine, it is important to detect predictive, stable and interpretable biomarkers related with different clinical characteristics. These clinical characteristics may be heterogeneous with respect to underlying interactions between genes. Usually, traditional methods just focus on detection of differentially expressed genes without taking the interactions between genes into account. Moreover, due to the typical low reproducibility of the selected biomarkers, it is difficult to give a clear biological interpretation for a specific disease. Therefore, it is necessary to design a robust biomarker identification method that can predict disease-associated interactions with high reproducibility.In this article, we propose a regularized logistic regression model. Different from previous methods which focus on individual genes or modules, our model takes gene pairs, which are connected in a protein-protein interaction network, into account. A line graph is constructed to represent the adjacencies between pairwise interactions. Based on this line graph, we incorporate the degree information in the model via an adaptive elastic net, which makes our model less dependent on the expression data. Experimental results on six publicly available breast cancer datasets show that our method can not only achieve competitive performance in classification, but also retain great stability in variable selection. Therefore, our model is able to identify the diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in a more robust way. Moreover, most of the biomarkers discovered by our model have been verified in biochemical or biomedical researches.The proposed method shows promise in the diagnosis of disease pathogenesis with different clinical characteristics. These advances lead to more accurate and stable biomarker discovery, which can monitor the functional changes that are perturbed by diseases. Based on these predictions, researchers may be able to provide suggestions for new therapeutic approaches.
