Computational and artificial neural network based study of functional SNPs of human LEPR protein associated with reproductive function.

Journal of cellular biochemistry
Genetic polymorphisms are mostly associated with inherited diseases, detecting and analyzing the biological significance of functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using wet laboratory experiments is an arduous task hence the computational ...

Deleterious Non-Synonymous Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Predictions on Human Transcription Factors.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Transcription factors (TFs) are the major components of human gene regulation. In particular, they bind onto specific DNA sequences and regulate neighborhood genes in different tissues at different developmental stages. Non-synonymous single nucleoti...

An in-silico method for identifying aggregation rate enhancer and mitigator mutations in proteins.

International journal of biological macromolecules
Newly synthesized polypeptides must pass stringent quality controls in cells to ensure appropriate folding and function. However, mutations, environmental stresses and aging can reduce efficiencies of these controls, leading to accumulation of protei...

Association Between Genotypes and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in MESA (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis).

Journal of the American Heart Association
BACKGROUND: genetic variants confer an increased risk for kidney disease. Their associations with cardiovascular disease (CVD) are less certain. We aimed to compare the prevalence of subclinical CVD and incidence of atherosclerotic CVD and heart fai...

Applying an artificial neural network model for developing a severity score for patients with hereditary amyloid polyneuropathy.

Amyloid : the international journal of experimental and clinical investigation : the official journal of the International Society of Amyloidosis
Hereditary (familial) amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) is a systemic disease that includes a sensorimotor polyneuropathy related to transthyretin (TTR) mutations. So far, a scale designed to classify the severity of this disease has not yet been validate...

Machine learning classifier for identification of damaging missense mutations exclusive to human mitochondrial DNA-encoded polypeptides.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Several methods have been developed to predict the pathogenicity of missense mutations but none has been specifically designed for classification of variants in mtDNA-encoded polypeptides. Moreover, there is not available curated dataset ...

Discrimination of driver and passenger mutations in epidermal growth factor receptor in cancer.

Mutation research
Cancer is one of the most life-threatening diseases and mutations in several genes are the vital cause in tumorigenesis. Protein kinases play essential roles in cancer progression and specifically, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is an import...

MIMP: predicting the impact of mutations on kinase-substrate phosphorylation.

Nature methods
Protein phosphorylation is important in cellular pathways and altered in disease. We developed MIMP (http://mimp.baderlab.org/), a machine learning method to predict the impact of missense single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) on kinase-substrate interac...
