Protein secondary structures (SSs) are categorized in regular and irregular structure classes. Regular SSs, representing nearly 50% of amino acids consist of helices and sheets, whereas the remaining amino acids represent irregular SSs. [Formula: see text]-turns and [Formula: see text]-turns are the most abundant irregular SSs present in proteins. Existing methods are well developed for separate prediction of regular and irregular SSs. However, for more comprehensive PSSP, it is essential to develop a uniform model to predict all types of SSs simultaneously. In this work, using a novel dataset comprising dictionary of secondary structure of protein (DSSP)-based SSs and PROMOTIF-based [Formula: see text]-turns and [Formula: see text]-turns, we propose a unified deep learning model consisting of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and long short-term memory networks (LSTMs) for simultaneous prediction of regular and irregular SSs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study in PSSP covering both regular and irregular structures. The protein sequences in our constructed datasets, RiR6069 and RiR513, have been borrowed from benchmark CB6133 and CB513 datasets, respectively.

With its prevalence and severity, there have been several breakthroughs in developing treatments for the disease. Targeted therapy treatments limit the damage done to healthy tissues. These targeted therapies are especially potent for luminal and HER-2 positive type breast cancer. However, for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), the lack of defining biomarkers makes it hard to approach with targeted therapy methods. Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) have been studied as possible targets for drug action. However, small molecule drugs are not able to cover the entirety of the PPI binding interface. Peptides were found to be more suited to the large or flat PPI surfaces, in addition to their better pharmacokinetic properties. In this study, computational methods was used in order to verify whether peptide drug inhibitors are good drug candidates against the ubiquitin protein, UBE2C by conducting docking, MD and MMPBSA analyses. Results show that while the lead peptide, T20-M shows good potential as a peptide drug, its binding affinity towards UBE2C is not enough to overcome the natural UBE2C-ANAPC2 interaction.

The second strategy is a powerful approach which we colloquially call \"home ground testing\". Both strategies perform better than BFB conversions.

In this study, a novel network construction algorithm for identifying early warning network signals (IEWNS) is proposed for improving the performance of LUAD early diagnosis. To this end, we theoretically derived a dynamic criterion, namely, the relationship of variation (RV), to construct dynamic networks. RV infers correlation [Formula: see text] statistics to measure dynamic changes in molecular relationships during the process of disease development. Based on the dynamic networks constructed by IEWNS, network warning signals used to represent the occurrence of LUAD deterioration can be defined without human intervention. IEWNS was employed to perform a comprehensive analysis of gene expression profiles of LUAD from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The experimental results suggest that the potential biomarkers selected by IEWNS can facilitate a better understanding of pathogenetic mechanisms and help to achieve effective early diagnosis of LUAD.

The generator is used to generate peptides; the generated proteins are fed to the discriminator to distinguish between the AVPs and non-AVPs. The original GAN design uses actual data to train the discriminator. However, not many AVPs have been experimentally obtained. To solve this problem, we used the Feedback method to allow the discriminator to learn from the existing as well as generated synthetic data. We implemented this method using a classifier module that classifies each peptide sequence generated by the GAN generator as AVP or non-AVP. The classifier uses the transformer network and achieves high classification accuracy. This mechanism enables the efficient generation of peptides with a high probability of exhibiting antiviral activity. Using the Feedback method, we evaluated various algorithms and their performance.

Clinical data typically consist of patients who received different treatments. Many prediction modeling studies fail to account for differences in patient treatment appropriately, which results in the development of prediction models that show poor accuracy and generalizability. In this paper, we list the most common methods used to handle patient treatments and discuss certain caveats associated with each method. We believe that proper handling of differences in patient treatment is crucial for the development of accurate and generalizable models. As different treatment strategies are employed for different diseases, the best approach to properly handle differences in patient treatment is specific to each individual situation. We use the Ma-Spore acute lymphoblastic leukemia data set as a case study to demonstrate the complexities associated with differences in patient treatment, and offer suggestions on incorporating treatment information during evaluation of prediction models. In clinical data, patients are typically treated on a case by case basis, with unique cases occurring more frequently than expected. Hence, there are many subtleties to consider during the analysis and evaluation of clinical prediction models.","PeriodicalId":48910,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology","volume":"20 6","pages":"2271001"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10523629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
