Modeling species-genes data for efficient phylogenetic inference. 为有效的系统发育推断建立物种-基因数据模型。
Wenyuan Li, Ying Liu
{"title":"Modeling species-genes data for efficient phylogenetic inference.","authors":"Wenyuan Li,&nbsp;Ying Liu","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>In recent years, biclique methods have been proposed to construct phylogenetic trees. One of the key steps of these methods is to find complete sub-matrices (without missing entries) from a species-genes data matrix. To enumerate all complete sub-matrices, (17) described an exact algorithm, whose running time is exponential. Furthermore, it generates a large number of complete sub-matrices, many of which may not be used for tree reconstruction. Further investigating and understanding the characteristics of species-genes data may be helpful for discovering complete sub-matrices. Therefore, in this paper, we focus on quantitatively studying and understanding the characteristics of species-genes data, which can be used to guide new algorithm design for efficient phylogenetic inference. In this paper, a mathematical model is constructed to simulate the real species-genes data. The results indicate that sequence-availability probability distributions follow power law, which leads to the skewness and sparseness of the real species-genes data. Moreover, a special structure, called \"ladder structure\", is discovered in the real species-genes data. This ladder structure is used to identify complete sub-matrices, and more importantly, to reveal overlapping relationships among complete sub-matrices. To discover the distinct ladder structure in real species-genes data, we propose an efficient evolutionary dynamical system, called \"generalized replicator dynamics\". Two species-genes data sets from green plants are used to illustrate the effectiveness of our model. Empirical study has shown that our model is effective and efficient in understanding species-genes data for phylogenetic inference.</p>","PeriodicalId":72665,"journal":{"name":"Computational systems bioinformatics.

If there are aberrations that force cell to adjust its regulatory machinery away from the normal state to reliably provide proliferative signals and abrogate normal safeguards, it must achieve a new regulatory state different from the normal. Due to this tightly coordinated regulation, the expression of genes should show consistent patterns within a cellular context, for example, a subtype of tumor, but the behaviour of those genes outside the context would rather become less consistent. Based on this hypothesis, we propose a method to identify genes whose expression pattern is significantly more consistent within a specific biological context, and also provide an algorithm to identify novel cellular contexts. The method was applied to previously published data sets to find possible novel biological contexts in conjunction with available clinical or drug sensitivity data.

We propose a novel combinatorial optimization model for the tagSNP selection problem, called the minimum common tagSNP selection (MCTS) problem, and present efficient solutions for MCTS. Our approach consists of three main steps including (i) partitioning the SNP markers into small disjoint components, (ii) applying some data reduction rules to simplify the problem, and (iii) applying either a fast greedy algorithm or a Lagrangian relaxation algorithm to solve the remaining (general) MCTS. These algorithms also provide lower bounds on tagging (i.e. the minimum number of tagSNPs needed). The lower bounds allow us to evaluate how far our solution is from the optimum. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time tagging lower bounds are discussed in the literature. We assess the performance of our algorithms on real HapMap data for genome-wide tagging. The experiments demonstrate that our algorithms run 3 to 4 orders of magnitude faster than the existing single-population tagging programs like FESTA, LD-Select and the multiple-population tagging method MultiPop-TagSelect. Our method also greatly reduces the required tagSNPs compared to LD-Select on a single population and MultiPop-TagSelect on multiple populations. Moreover, the numbers of tagSNPs selected by our algorithms are almost optimal since they are very close to the corresponding lower bounds obtained by our method.","PeriodicalId":72665,"journal":{"name":"Computational systems bioinformatics.

This problem is extensively investigated by researchers recently, and the peptide sequencing results are becoming more and more accurate. However, many of these algorithms are using computational models based on some unverified assumptions. We believe that the investigation of the validity of these assumptions and related problems will lead to improvements in current algorithms. In this paper, we have first investigated peptide sequencing without preprocessing the spectrum, and we have shown that by introducing preprocessing on spectrum, peptide sequencing can be faster, easier and more accurate. We have then investigated one very important problem, the anti-symmetric problem in the peptide sequencing problem, and we have proved by experiments that model that simply ignore anti-symmetric of model that remove all anti-symmetric instances are too simple for peptide sequencing problem. We have proposed a new model for anti-symmetric problem in more realistic way. We have also proposed a novel algorithm which incorporate preprocessing and new model for anti-symmetric issue, and experiments show that this algorithm has better performance on datasets examined.","PeriodicalId":72665,"journal":{"name":"Computational systems bioinformatics.

We then develop an effective multiple curve comparison (MCC) algorithm, called the enhanced partial order (EPO) algorithm, to extract features from a set of diverse folding trajectories, including both successful and unsuccessful simulation runs. Our EPO algorithm addresses several new challenges presented by comparing high dimensional curves coming from folding trajectories.

The resulting inferred duplication histories are a valuable source of information for a broad range of biological applications, including ortholog identification, estimating gene duplication times, and rooting and correcting gene trees. Reconciliation for binary trees is a tractable and well studied problem. However, a striking proportion of species trees are non-binary. For example, 64% of branch points in the NCBI taxonomy have three or more children. When applied to non-binary species trees, current algorithms overestimate the number of duplications because they cannot distinguish between duplication and deep coalescence. We present the first formal algorithm for reconciling binary gene trees with non-binary species trees under a duplication-loss parsimony model. Using a space efficient mapping from gene to species tree, our algorithm infers the minimum number of duplications and losses in O(|V(G)| . (k(S) + h(S))) time, where V(G) is the number of nodes in the gene tree, h(S) is the height of the species tree and k(S) is the width of its largest multifurcation. We also present a dynamic programming algorithm for a combined loss model, in which losses in sibling species may be represented as a single loss in the common ancestor.
