Continuous Distributed Representation of Biological Sequences for Deep Proteomics and Genomics.

PloS one
We introduce a new representation and feature extraction method for biological sequences. Named bio-vectors (BioVec) to refer to biological sequences in general with protein-vectors (ProtVec) for proteins (amino-acid sequences) and gene-vectors (Gene...

DisPredict: A Predictor of Disordered Protein Using Optimized RBF Kernel.

PloS one
Intrinsically disordered proteins or, regions perform important biological functions through their dynamic conformations during binding. Thus accurate identification of these disordered regions have significant implications in proper annotation of fu...

Prediction Enhancement of Residue Real-Value Relative Accessible Surface Area in Transmembrane Helical Proteins by Solving the Output Preference Problem of Machine Learning-Based Predictors.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
The α-helical transmembrane proteins constitute 25% of the entire human proteome space and are difficult targets in high-resolution wet-lab structural studies, calling for accurate computational predictors. We present a novel sequence-based method ca...

Accurate contact predictions using covariation techniques and machine learning.

Proteins
Here we present the results of residue-residue contact predictions achieved in CASP11 by the CONSIP2 server, which is based around our MetaPSICOV contact prediction method. On a set of 40 target domains with a median family size of around 40 effectiv...

Prediction of Peptide and Protein Propensity for Amyloid Formation.

PloS one
Understanding which peptides and proteins have the potential to undergo amyloid formation and what driving forces are responsible for amyloid-like fiber formation and stabilization remains limited. This is mainly because proteins that can undergo str...

Improving prediction of secondary structure, local backbone angles, and solvent accessible surface area of proteins by iterative deep learning.

Scientific reports
Direct prediction of protein structure from sequence is a challenging problem. An effective approach is to break it up into independent sub-problems. These sub-problems such as prediction of protein secondary structure can then be solved independentl...

All-atom 3D structure prediction of transmembrane β-barrel proteins from sequences.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Transmembrane β-barrels (TMBs) carry out major functions in substrate transport and protein biogenesis but experimental determination of their 3D structure is challenging. Encouraged by successful de novo 3D structure prediction of globular and α-hel...

Types and effects of protein variations.

Human genetics
Variations in proteins have very large number of diverse effects affecting sequence, structure, stability, interactions, activity, abundance and other properties. Although protein-coding exons cover just over 1 % of the human genome they harbor an di...

Prediction of β-lactamase and its class by Chou's pseudo-amino acid composition and support vector machine.

Journal of theoretical biology
β-Lactam class of antibiotics is used as major therapeutic agent against a number of pathogenic microbes. The widespread and indiscriminate use of antibiotics to treat bacterial infection has prompted evolution of several evading mechanisms from the ...

A Deep Learning Network Approach to ab initio Protein Secondary Structure Prediction.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Ab initio protein secondary structure (SS) predictions are utilized to generate tertiary structure predictions, which are increasingly demanded due to the rapid discovery of proteins. Although recent developments have slightly exceeded previous metho...
