PMTPred: machine-learning-based prediction of protein methyltransferases using the composition of k-spaced amino acid pairs
Protein methyltransferases (PMTs) are a group of enzymes that help catalyze the transfer of a methyl group to its substrates. These enzymes play an important role in epigenetic regulation and can methylate various substrates with DNA, RNA, protein, and small-molecule secondary metabolites. Dysregulation of methyltransferases is implicated in various human cancers. However, in light of the well-recognized significance of PMTs, reliable and efficient identification methods are essential. In the present work, we propose a machine-learning-based method for the identification of PMTs. Various sequence-based features were calculated, and prediction models were trained using various machine-learning algorithms using a tenfold cross-validation technique. After evaluating each model on the dataset, the SVM-based CKSAAP model achieved the highest prediction accuracy with balanced sensitivity and specificity. Also, this SVM model outperformed deep-learning algorithms for the prediction of PMTs. In addition, cross-database validation was performed to ensure the robustness of the model. Feature importance was assessed using shapley additive explanations (SHAP) values, providing insights into the contributions of different features to the model’s predictions. Finally, the SVM-based CKSAAP model was implemented in a standalone tool, PMTPred, due to its consistent performance during independent testing and cross-database evaluation. We believe that PMTPred will be a useful and efficient tool for the identification of PMTs.
