Protein-protein and protein nucleic acid interactions are vitally important for a wide range of biological processes, including regulation or gene expression, protein synthesis, and replication and assembly of many viruses. We have developed machine learning approaches for predicting which amino acids of a protein participate in its interactions with other proteins and/or nucleic acids, using only the proiein sequence as input. In this paper, we describe an application of classifiers trained on datasets of well-characterized protein-protein and protein-RNA complexes for which experimental structures are available. We apply these classifiers to the problem of predicting protein and RNA binding sites in the sequence of a clinically important protein for which the structure is not known: the regulatory protein Rev, essential for the replication of HIV-I and other lentiviruses. We compare our predictions with published biochemical, genetic and partial structural information for HIV-1 and EIAV Rev and with our own published experimental mapping of RNA binding sites in EIAV Rev. The predicted and experimentally determined binding sites are in very good agreement. The ability to predict reliably the residues of a protein that directly contribute to specific binding events - without the requirement for structural information regarding either the protein or complexes in which it participates - can potentially generate new disease intervention strategies.

Short Read Alignment Mapping Metrics (SRAMM): is an efficient and versatile command line tool providing additional short read mapping metrics, filtering, and graphs. Short read aligners report MAPing Quality (MAPQ), but these methods generally are neither standardized nor well described in literature or software manuals. Additionally, third party mapping quality programs are typically computationally intensive or designed for specific applications. SRAMM efficiently generates multiple different concept-based mapping scores to provide for an informative post alignment examination and filtering process of aligned short reads for various downstream applications. SRAMM is compatible with Python 2.6+ and Python 3.6+ on all operating systems. It works with any short read aligner that generates SAM/BAM/CRAM file outputs and reports 'AS' tags.

Viruses possess specific conserved regions known as RNA recognition motifs, which are shared within taxonomic groups. Applying these to the Baltimore virus classification system, there are genes/proteins that serve as biomarkers for each of the seven groups. Mutations in conserved sequence regions can have a significant impact on the function of a virus, especially if these conserved regions are part of a major protein. In this study, we analyzed the RdRp gene, known to be a representative RRM of RNA viruses, from viruses of five families (Alternaviridae, Chrysoviridae, Totiviridae, Sedoreoviridae, and Spinareoviridae) within the phylum Duplornaviricota. Data were retrieved from the NCBI non-redundant (nr) database (https://***/protein) applying a cut-off of 300 amino acids in length. RdRp protein sequences were aligned using PROMALS3D, and PhyML (v3.0) was used for phylogenetic analysis. In the next step, we utilized the officially provided ICTV taxonomy and bioinformatics tools to assign the phylogenetic position of RdRp. Although this analysis focused solely on RdRp, it can be concluded that using this gene as a marker may be sufficient for taxonomic assignment. Subsequent analyses will target DNA viruses and RT viruses to perform a more comprehensive assessment. This extensive analysis aims to validate the usefulness of marker genes in the overall viral taxonomy.

The lymphatic vasculature comprises lymphatic capillaries and collecting vessels. To support lymphatic development, lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) utilize nutrients to fuel lymphangiogenic processes. Meanwhile, LECs maintain constant prospero homeobox 1 (PROX1) expression critical for lymphatic specification. However, molecular mechanisms orchestrating nutrient metabolism while sustaining PROX1 levels in LECs remain unclear. Here, we show that loss of RAPTOR, an indispensable mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) component, downregulates PROX1 and impairs lymphatic capillary growth and differentiation of collecting lymphatics in mice. Mechanistically, mTORC1 inhibition in mouse and human LECs causes Myc reduction, which decreases hexokinase 2 (HK2) and glutaminase (GLS), inhibiting glycolysis and glutaminolysis. Myc or HK2/GLS ablation impedes lymphatic capillary and collecting vessel formation. Interestingly, mTORC1 regulation of PROX1 is independent of Myc-HK2/GLS signaling. Moreover, genetic interaction analysis indicates that Myc and PROX1 play crucial roles in mTORC1-regulated lymphatic development. Collectively, our findings identify mTORC1 as a key regulator of metabolic programs and PROX1 expression during lymphangiogenesis.

Mitochondrial division inhibitor 1 (Mdivi-1) is a well-known synthetic compound aimed at inhibiting dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) to suppress mitochondrial fission, making it a valuable tool for studying mitochondrial dynamics. However, its specific effects beyond Drp1 inhibition remain to be confirmed. In this study, we employed integrative proteomics and phosphoproteomics to delve into the molecular responses induced by Mdivi-1 in SK-N-BE(2)C cells. A total of 3070 proteins and 1945 phosphorylation sites were identified, with 880 of them represented as phosphoproteins. Among these, 266 proteins and 97 phosphorylation sites were found to be sensitive to the Mdivi-1 treatment. Functional enrichment analysis unveiled their involvement in serine biosynthesis and extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathways. Through targeted metabolomics, we observed that Mdivi-1 enhanced intracellular serine biosynthesis while reducing the production of C24:1-ceramide. Within these regulated phosphoproteins, dynamic dephosphorylation of proteasome subunit alpha type 3 serine 250 (PSMA3-S250) occurred after Mdivi-1 treatment. Further site-directed mutagenesis experiments revealed that the dephosphorylation-deficient mutant PSMA3-S250A exhibited a decreased cell survival. This research confirms that Mdivi-1’s inhibition of mitochondrial division leads to various side effects, ultimately influencing cell survival, rather than solely targeting Drp1 inhibition. © 2023 American Chemical Society.

Much of modern machine learning and statistics research consists of extracting information from high-dimensional patterns. Often times, the large number of features that comprise this high-dimensional pattern are themselves vector valued, corresponding to sampled values in a time-series. Here, we present a classification methodology to accommodate multiple time-series using boosting. This method constructs an additive model by adaptively selecting basis functions consisting of a discriminating feature's full time-series. We present the necessary modifications to fisher linear discriminant analysis and least-squares, as base learners, to accommodate the weighted data in the proposed boosting procedure. We conclude by presenting the performance of our proposed method against a synthetic stochastic differential equation data set and a real world data set involving prediction of cancer patient susceptibility for a particular chemoradiotherapy.

Current mammographic screeningfor breast cancer is less effective for younger women. To complement mammography for premenopausal women, we investigated the feasibility screening test using 98 blood serum proteins. Because the data set was very noisy and contained only weak features, we used a classifier designed for noisy data: decision fusion. Decision fusion outperformed both a support vector machine (SVM) and linear regression with forward stepwise feature selection on all three two-class classification tasks: normal tissue vs. cancer, normal tissue vs. benign lesions, and benign lesions vs. cancer. Decision fusion detected cancer moderately well (AUC=0.84 on normal vs. cancer), demonstrating promise as a screening tool. Decision fusion also detected benign lesions similarly well (AUC=0.83 on normal vs. benign lesions) and was the only classifier to achieve any success in separating benign from malignant lesions (AUC=0.64 on benign vs. cancer). The classification results suggest that the assayed proteins are more indicative of a secondary effect, such as immune response, rather than specific for breast cancer. In conclusion, the decision fusion classifier demonstrated some promise in detecting breast lesions and outperformed other classifiers, especially for the very noisy classification problem of distinguishing benign from malignant lesions. ©2007 IEEE.

Genetic correlates of autoreactivity and autoreactive potential in human Ig heavy chains

Background. Immature bone marrow B cells are known to have longer CDR3 than mature peripheral B cells, and this genetic characteristic has been shown to correlate with autoreactivity in these early cells. B-cell Central tolerance eliminates these cells, but it is known that autoreactive B cells nevertheless appear commonly in healthy human blood. We examined over 7,300 Ig genes from Genbank, including those annotated by their discoverers as associated with autoreactivity, to determine the genetic correlates of autoreactivity in mature B cells. Results. We find differential biases in gene segment usage and higher mutation frequency in autoreactivity-associated Ig genes, but the CDR3 lengths do not differ between autoreactive and non-autoreactive Ig genes. The most striking genetic signature of autoreactivity is an increase in the proportion of N-nucleotides relative to germline-encoded nucleotides in CDR3 from autoreactive genes. Conclusion. We hypothesize that peripheral autoreactivity results primarily from somatic mutation, and that the genetic correlates of autoreactivity in mature B-cells are not the same as those for autoreactivity in immature B cells. What is seen in mature autoreactive B cells are the correlates of autoreactive potential, not of autoreactivity per se. The autoreactive potential is higher for V(D)J rearrangements encoded to a large extent by N-nucleotides rather than by the gene segments that, we posit, have been selected in germline evolution for their suppression of autoreactive potential.

We propose a novel method of calculation of free energy for coarse grained models of proteins by combining our newly developed multibody potentials with entropies computed from elastic network models of proteins. Multi-body potentials have been of much interest recently because they take into account three dimensional interactions related to residue packing and capture the cooperativity of these interactions in protein structures. Combining four-body non-sequential, four-body sequential and pairwise short range potentials with optimized weights for each term, our coarse-grained potential improved recognition of native structure among misfolded decoys, outperforming all other contact potentials for CASP8 decoy sets and performance comparable to the fully atomic empirical DFIRE potentials. By combing statistical contact potentials with entropies from elastic network models of the same structures we can compute free energy changes and improve coarse-grained modeling of protein structure and dynamics. The consideration of protein flexibility and dynamics should improve protein structure prediction and refinement of computational models. This work is the first to combine coarse-grained multibody potentials with an entropic model that takes into account contributions of the entire structure, investigating native-like decoy selection. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
