QUATgo: Protein quaternary structural attributes predicted by two-stage machine learning approaches with heterogeneous feature encoding.

PloS one
Many proteins exist in natures as oligomers with various quaternary structural attributes rather than as single chains. Predicting these attributes is an essential task in computational biology for the advancement of proteomics. However, the existing...

Review and comparative analysis of machine learning-based phage virion protein identification methods.

Biochimica et biophysica acta. Proteins and proteomics
Phage virion protein (PVP) identification plays key role in elucidating relationships between phages and hosts. Moreover, PVP identification can facilitate the design of related biochemical entities. Recently, several machine learning approaches have...

Conservation region finding for influenza A viruses by machine learning methods of N-linked glycosylation sites and B-cell epitopes.

Mathematical biosciences
Influenza type A, a serious infectious disease of the human respiratory tract, poses an enormous threat to human health worldwide. It leads to high mortality rates in poultry, pigs, and humans. The primary target identity regions for the human immune...

Identifying Phage Virion Proteins by Using Two-Step Feature Selection Methods.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
Accurate identification of phage virion protein is not only a key step for understanding the function of the phage virion protein but also helpful for further understanding the lysis mechanism of the bacterial cell. Since traditional experimental met...

Identification of recent cases of hepatitis C virus infection using physical-chemical properties of hypervariable region 1 and a radial basis function neural network classifier.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: Identification of acute or recent hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections is important for detecting outbreaks and devising timely public health interventions for interruption of transmission. Epidemiological investigations and chemistry-based...

iPHLoc-ES: Identification of bacteriophage protein locations using evolutionary and structural features.

Journal of theoretical biology
Bacteriophage proteins are viruses that can significantly impact on the functioning of bacteria and can be used in phage based therapy. The functioning of Bacteriophage in the host bacteria depends on its location in those host cells. It is very impo...

pLoc-mVirus: Predict subcellular localization of multi-location virus proteins via incorporating the optimal GO information into general PseAAC.

Gene
Knowledge of subcellular locations of proteins is crucially important for in-depth understanding their functions in a cell. With the explosive growth of protein sequences generated in the postgenomic age, it is highly demanded to develop computationa...

Predicting Zoonotic Risk of Influenza A Viruses from Host Tropism Protein Signature Using Random Forest.

International journal of molecular sciences
Influenza A viruses remain a significant health problem, especially when a novel subtype emerges from the avian population to cause severe outbreaks in humans. Zoonotic viruses arise from the animal population as a result of mutations and reassortmen...

An improved method for predicting interactions between virus and human proteins.

Journal of bioinformatics and computational biology
The interaction of virus proteins with host proteins plays a key role in viral infection and consequent pathogenesis. Many computational methods have been proposed to predict protein-protein interactions (PPIs), but most of the computational methods ...
