The Metabolic Rainbow: Deep Learning Phase I Metabolism in Five Colors.

ABSTRACT: Metabolism of drugs affects their absorption, distribution, efficacy, excretion, and toxicity profiles. Metabolism is routinely assessed experimentally using recombinant enzymes, human liver microsome, and animal models. Unfortunately, these experiments are expensive, time-consuming, and often extrapolate poorly to humans because they fail to capture the full breadth of metabolic reactions observed in vivo. As a result, metabolic pathways leading to the formation of toxic metabolites are often missed during drug development, giving rise to costly failures. To address some of these limitations, computational metabolism models can rapidly and cost-effectively predict sites of metabolism-the atoms or bonds which undergo enzymatic modifications-on thousands of drug candidates, thereby improving the likelihood of discovering metabolic transformations forming toxic metabolites. However, current computational metabolism models are often unable to predict the specific metabolites formed by metabolism at certain sites. Identification of reaction type is a key step toward metabolite prediction. Phase I enzymes, which are responsible for the metabolism of more than 90% of FDA approved drugs, catalyze highly diverse types of reactions and produce metabolites with substantial structural variability. Without knowledge of potential metabolite structures, medicinal chemists cannot differentiate harmful metabolic transformations from beneficial ones. To address this shortcoming, we propose a system for simultaneously labeling sites of metabolism and reaction types, by classifying them into five key reaction classes: stable and unstable oxidations, dehydrogenation, hydrolysis, and reduction. These classes unambiguously identify 21 types of phase I reactions, which cover 92.3% of known reactions in our database. We used this labeling system to train a neural network model of phase I metabolism on a literature-derived data set encompassing 20 736 human phase I metabolic reactions. Our model, Rainbow XenoSite, was able to identify reaction-type specific sites of metabolism with a cross-validated accuracy of 97.1% area under the receiver operator curve. Rainbow XenoSite with five-color and combined output is available for use free and online through our secure server at http://swami.wustl.edu/xenosite/p/phase1_rainbow.

Project description:The multi-frequency temporal phase unwrapping (MF-TPU) method, as a classical phase unwrapping algorithm for fringe projection techniques, has the ability to eliminate the phase ambiguities even while measuring spatially isolated scenes or the objects with discontinuous surfaces. For the simplest and most efficient case in MF-TPU, two groups of phase-shifting fringe patterns with different frequencies are used: the high-frequency one is applied for 3D reconstruction of the tested object and the unit-frequency one is used to assist phase unwrapping for the wrapped phase with high frequency. The final measurement precision or sensitivity is determined by the number of fringes used within the high-frequency pattern, under the precondition that its absolute phase can be successfully recovered without any fringe order errors. However, due to the non-negligible noises and other error sources in actual measurement, the frequency of the high-frequency fringes is generally restricted to about 16, resulting in limited measurement accuracy. On the other hand, using additional intermediate sets of fringe patterns can unwrap the phase with higher frequency, but at the expense of a prolonged pattern sequence. With recent developments and advancements of machine learning for computer vision and computational imaging, it can be demonstrated in this work that deep learning techniques can automatically realize TPU through supervised learning, as called deep learning-based temporal phase unwrapping (DL-TPU), which can substantially improve the unwrapping reliability compared with MF-TPU even under different types of error sources, e.g., intensity noise, low fringe modulation, projector nonlinearity, and motion artifacts. Furthermore, as far as we know, our method was demonstrated experimentally that the high-frequency phase with 64 periods can be directly and reliably unwrapped from one unit-frequency phase using DL-TPU. These results highlight that challenging issues in optical metrology can be potentially overcome through machine learning, opening new avenues to design powerful and extremely accurate high-speed 3D imaging systems ubiquitous in nowadays science, industry, and multimedia.

Project description:BackgroundPlant secondary metabolites are highly valued for their applications in pharmaceuticals, nutrition, flavors, and aesthetics. It is of great importance to elucidate plant secondary metabolic pathways due to their crucial roles in biological processes during plant growth and development. However, understanding plant biosynthesis and degradation pathways remains a challenge due to the lack of sufficient information in current databases. To address this issue, we proposed a transfer learning approach using a pre-trained hybrid deep learning architecture that combines Graph Transformer and convolutional neural network (GTC) to predict plant metabolic pathways.ResultsGTC provides comprehensive molecular representation by extracting both structural features from the molecular graph and textual information from the SMILES string. GTC is pre-trained on the KEGG datasets to acquire general features, followed by fine-tuning on plant-derived datasets. Four metrics were chosen for model performance evaluation. The results show that GTC outperforms six other models, including three previously reported machine learning models, on the KEGG dataset. GTC yields an accuracy of 96.75%, precision of 85.14%, recall of 83.03%, and F1_score of 84.06%. Furthermore, an ablation study confirms the indispensability of all the components of the hybrid GTC model. Transfer learning is then employed to leverage the shared knowledge acquired from the KEGG metabolic pathways. As a result, the transferred GTC exhibits outstanding accuracy in predicting plant secondary metabolic pathways with an average accuracy of 98.30% in fivefold cross-validation and 97.82% on the final test. In addition, GTC is employed to classify natural products. It achieves a perfect accuracy score of 100.00% for alkaloids, while the lowest accuracy score of 98.42% for shikimates and phenylpropanoids.ConclusionsThe proposed GTC effectively captures molecular features, and achieves high performance in classifying KEGG metabolic pathways and predicting plant secondary metabolic pathways via transfer learning. Furthermore, GTC demonstrates its generalization ability by accurately classifying natural products. A user-friendly executable program has been developed, which only requires the input of the SMILES string of the query compound in a graphical interface.
