Perspectives and applications of machine learning for evolutionary developmental biology.

Molecular omics
Evolutionary Developmental Biology (Evo-Devo) is an ever-expanding field that aims to understand how development was modulated by the evolutionary process. In this sense, "omic" studies emerged as a powerful ally to unravel the molecular mechanisms u...

Gene multifunctionality scoring using gene ontology.

Journal of bioinformatics and computational biology
Multifunctional genes are important genes because of their essential roles in human cells. Studying and analyzing multifunctional genes can help understand disease mechanisms and drug discovery. We propose a computational method for scoring gene mult...

SANA NetGO: a combinatorial approach to using Gene Ontology (GO) terms to score network alignments.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: Gene Ontology (GO) terms are frequently used to score alignments between protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. Methods exist to measure GO similarity between proteins in isolation, but proteins in a network alignment are not isolate...

Rectified factor networks for biclustering of omics data.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: Biclustering has become a major tool for analyzing large datasets given as matrix of samples times features and has been successfully applied in life sciences and e-commerce for drug design and recommender systems, respectively. actor nal...

The drug target genes show higher evolutionary conservation than non-target genes.

Oncotarget
Although evidence indicates that drug target genes share some common evolutionary features, there have been few studies analyzing evolutionary features of drug targets from an overall level. Therefore, we conducted an analysis which aimed to investig...

Prediction of protein-protein interaction sites from weakly homologous template structures using meta-threading and machine learning.

Journal of molecular recognition : JMR
The identification of protein-protein interactions is vital for understanding protein function, elucidating interaction mechanisms, and for practical applications in drug discovery. With the exponentially growing protein sequence data, fully automate...
