DeepSec: a deep learning framework for secreted protein discovery in human body fluids.

ABSTRACT:

Motivation

Human proteins that are secreted into different body fluids from various cells can be promising disease indicators. Modern proteomics research empowered by both qualitative and quantitative profiling techniques has made great progress in protein discovery in various human fluids. However, due to the large numbers of proteins and diverse modifications present in the fluids, as well as the existing technical limits of major proteomics platforms (e.g., mass spectrometry), large discrepancies are often generated from different experimental studies. As a result, a comprehensive proteomics landscape across major human fluids are not well determined.

Results

To facilitate this process, we have developed a deep learning framework, named DeepSec, to identify secreted proteins in twelve types of human body fluids. DeepSec adopts an end-to-end sequence-based approach, where a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is built to learn the abstract sequence features followed by a Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BGRU) with fully connected layer for protein classification. DeepSec has demonstrated promising performances with average AUCs of 0.85-0.94 on testing datasets in each type of fluids, which outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods available mostly on blood proteins. As an illustration of how to apply DeepSec in biomarker discovery research, we conducted a case study on kidney cancer by using genomics data from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and have identified 104 possible marker proteins.

Prediction of body fluids where proteins are secreted into based on protein interaction network.

Project description:Determining the body fluids where secreted proteins can be secreted into is important for protein function annotation and disease biomarker discovery. In this study, we developed a network-based method to predict which kind of body fluids human proteins can be secreted into. For a newly constructed benchmark dataset that consists of 529 human-secreted proteins, the prediction accuracy for the most possible body fluid location predicted by our method via the jackknife test was 79.02%, significantly higher than the success rate by a random guess (29.36%). The likelihood that the predicted body fluids of the first four orders contain all the true body fluids where the proteins can be secreted into is 62.94%. Our method was further demonstrated with two independent datasets: one contains 57 proteins that can be secreted into blood; while the other contains 61 proteins that can be secreted into plasma/serum and were possible biomarkers associated with various cancers. For the 57 proteins in first dataset, 55 were correctly predicted as blood-secrete proteins. For the 61 proteins in the second dataset, 58 were predicted to be most possible in plasma/serum. These encouraging results indicate that the network-based prediction method is quite promising. It is anticipated that the method will benefit the relevant areas for both basic research and drug development.

DeepT3 2.0: improving type III secreted effector predictions by an integrative deep learning framework.

Project description:Type III secretion systems (T3SSs) are bacterial membrane-embedded nanomachines that allow a number of humans, plant and animal pathogens to inject virulence factors directly into the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. Export of effectors through T3SSs is critical for motility and virulence of most Gram-negative pathogens. Current computational methods can predict type III secreted effectors (T3SEs) from amino acid sequences, but due to algorithmic constraints, reliable and large-scale prediction of T3SEs in Gram-negative bacteria remains a challenge. Here, we present DeepT3 2.0 (http://advintbioinforlab.com/deept3/), a novel web server that integrates different deep learning models for genome-wide predicting T3SEs from a bacterium of interest. DeepT3 2.0 combines various deep learning architectures including convolutional, recurrent, convolutional-recurrent and multilayer neural networks to learn N-terminal representations of proteins specifically for T3SE prediction. Outcomes from the different models are processed and integrated for discriminating T3SEs and non-T3SEs. Because it leverages diverse models and an integrative deep learning framework, DeepT3 2.0 outperforms existing methods in validation datasets. In addition, the features learned from networks are analyzed and visualized to explain how models make their predictions. We propose DeepT3 2.0 as an integrated and accurate tool for the discovery of T3SEs.

DeepRank: a deep learning framework for data mining 3D protein-protein interfaces.

Project description:Three-dimensional (3D) structures of protein complexes provide fundamental information to decipher biological processes at the molecular scale. The vast amount of experimentally and computationally resolved protein-protein interfaces (PPIs) offers the possibility of training deep learning models to aid the predictions of their biological relevance. We present here DeepRank, a general, configurable deep learning framework for data mining PPIs using 3D convolutional neural networks (CNNs). DeepRank maps features of PPIs onto 3D grids and trains a user-specified CNN on these 3D grids. DeepRank allows for efficient training of 3D CNNs with data sets containing millions of PPIs and supports both classification and regression. We demonstrate the performance of DeepRank on two distinct challenges: The classification of biological versus crystallographic PPIs, and the ranking of docking models. For both problems DeepRank is competitive with, or outperforms, state-of-the-art methods, demonstrating the versatility of the framework for research in structural biology.

Reporter gene comparison demonstrates interference of complex body fluids with secreted luciferase activity.

Project description:Reporter gene assays are widely used to study cellular signaling and transcriptional activity. Few studies describe the use of reporter genes for studying cellular responses on complex body fluids, such as urine and blood. Selection of the optimal reporter gene is crucial for study outcome. Here, we compared the characteristics of five reporter genes (Firefly luciferase, stable- and unstable Nano luciferase, secretable Gaussia luciferase and Red Fluorescent Protein) to study complex body fluids. For this comparison, the NFκB Response Element (NFκB-RE) and Smad Binding Element (SBE) were identically cloned into the five different reporter vectors. Reporter characteristics were evaluated by kinetic and concentration-response measurements in SW1353 and HeLa cell lines. Finally, reporter compatibility with complex body fluids (fetal calf serum, knee joint synovial fluid and human serum) and inter-donor variation were evaluated. Red Fluorescent Protein demonstrated poor inducibility as a reporter gene and slow kinetics compared to luciferases. Intracellularly measured luciferases, such as Firefly luciferase and Nano luciferase, revealed good compatibility with complex body fluids. Secreted Gaussia luciferase appeared to be incompatible with complex body fluids, due to variability in inter-donor signal interference. Unstable Nano luciferase demonstrated clear inducibility, high sensitivity and compatibility with complex body fluids and therefore can be recommended for cellular signaling studies using complex body fluids.

A deep-learning framework for multi-level peptide-protein interaction prediction.

Project description:Peptide-protein interactions are involved in various fundamental cellular functions and their identification is crucial for designing efficacious peptide therapeutics. Recently, a number of computational methods have been developed to predict peptide-protein interactions. However, most of the existing prediction approaches heavily depend on high-resolution structure data. Here, we present a deep learning framework for multi-level peptide-protein interaction prediction, called CAMP, including binary peptide-protein interaction prediction and corresponding peptide binding residue identification. Comprehensive evaluation demonstrated that CAMP can successfully capture the binary interactions between peptides and proteins and identify the binding residues along the peptides involved in the interactions. In addition, CAMP outperformed other state-of-the-art methods on binary peptide-protein interaction prediction. CAMP can serve as a useful tool in peptide-protein interaction prediction and identification of important binding residues in the peptides, which can thus facilitate the peptide drug discovery process.

DeepSol: a deep learning framework for sequence-based protein solubility prediction.

Project description:MotivationProtein solubility plays a vital role in pharmaceutical research and production yield. For a given protein, the extent of its solubility can represent the quality of its function, and is ultimately defined by its sequence. Thus, it is imperative to develop novel, highly accurate in silico sequence-based protein solubility predictors. In this work we propose, DeepSol, a novel Deep Learning-based protein solubility predictor. The backbone of our framework is a convolutional neural network that exploits k-mer structure and additional sequence and structural features extracted from the protein sequence.ResultsDeepSol outperformed all known sequence-based state-of-the-art solubility prediction methods and attained an accuracy of 0.77 and Matthew's correlation coefficient of 0.55. The superior prediction accuracy of DeepSol allows to screen for sequences with enhanced production capacity and can more reliably predict solubility of novel proteins.Availability and implementationDeepSol's best performing models and results are publicly deposited at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1162886 (Khurana and Mall, 2018).Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

A deep-learning framework for human perception of abstract art composition.

Project description:Artistic composition (the structural organization of pictorial elements) is often characterized by some basic rules and heuristics, but art history does not offer quantitative tools for segmenting individual elements, measuring their interactions and related operations. To discover whether a metric description of this kind is even possible, we exploit a deep-learning algorithm that attempts to capture the perceptual mechanism underlying composition in humans. We rely on a robust behavioral marker with known relevance to higher-level vision: orientation judgements, that is, telling whether a painting is hung "right-side up." Humans can perform this task, even for abstract paintings. To account for this finding, existing models rely on "meaningful" content or specific image statistics, often in accordance with explicit rules from art theory. Our approach does not commit to any such assumptions/schemes, yet it outperforms previous models and for a larger database, encompassing a wide range of painting styles. Moreover, our model correctly reproduces human performance across several measurements from a new web-based experiment designed to test whole paintings, as well as painting fragments matched to the receptive-field size of different depths in the model. By exploiting this approach, we show that our deep learning model captures relevant characteristics of human orientation perception across styles and granularities. Interestingly, the more abstract the painting, the more our model relies on extended spatial integration of cues, a property supported by deeper layers.

Chemical Barrier Proteins in Human Body Fluids.

Project description:Chemical barriers are composed of those sites of the human body where potential pathogens can contact the host cells. A chemical barrier is made up by different proteins that are part of the antimicrobial and immunomodulatory protein/peptide (AMP) family. Proteins of the AMP family exert antibacterial, antiviral, and/or antifungal activity and can modulate the immune system. Besides these proteins, a wide range of proteases and protease inhibitors can also be found in the chemical barriers maintaining a proteolytic balance in the host and/or the pathogens. In this review, we aimed to identify the chemical barrier components in nine human body fluids. The interaction networks of the chemical barrier proteins in each examined body fluid were generated as well.

G2PDeep: a web-based deep-learning framework for quantitative phenotype prediction and discovery of genomic markers.

Project description:G2PDeep is an open-access web server, which provides a deep-learning framework for quantitative phenotype prediction and discovery of genomics markers. It uses zygosity or single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) information from plants and animals as the input to predict quantitative phenotype of interest and genomic markers associated with phenotype. It provides a one-stop-shop platform for researchers to create deep-learning models through an interactive web interface and train these models with uploaded data, using high-performance computing resources plugged at the backend. G2PDeep also provides a series of informative interfaces to monitor the training process and compare the performance among the trained models. The trained models can then be deployed automatically. The quantitative phenotype and genomic markers are predicted using a user-selected trained model and the results are visualized. Our state-of-the-art model has been benchmarked and demonstrated competitive performance in quantitative phenotype predictions by other researchers. In addition, the server integrates the soybean nested association mapping (SoyNAM) dataset with five phenotypes, including grain yield, height, moisture, oil, and protein. A publicly available dataset for seed protein and oil content has also been integrated into the server. The G2PDeep server is publicly available at http://g2pdeep.org. The Python-based deep-learning model is available at https://github.com/shuaizengMU/G2PDeep_model.
