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 ...

Expression of rabies virus glycoprotein in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris.

Biotechnology and applied biochemistry
Rabies is a fatal disease that can be prevented by vaccination. Different approaches were investigated to develop novel human rabies vaccines with improved features compared to the current available vaccines, among them is the use of heterologous gen...

Using support vector machines to identify protein phosphorylation sites in viruses.

Journal of molecular graphics & modelling
Phosphorylation of viral proteins plays important roles in enhancing replication and inhibition of normal host-cell functions. Given its importance in biology, a unique opportunity has arisen to identify viral protein phosphorylation sites. However, ...

IFPTML Multi-Output Model for Anti-Retroviral Compounds Including the Drug Structure and Target Protein Sequence Information.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Retroviruses such as HIV cause significant diseases in humans and other organisms, making the discovery of antiretroviral (ARV) drugs a critical priority. While databases like ChEMBL contain valuable information, their complexity poses challenges. Th...

Machine learning assisted in Silico discovery and optimization of small molecule inhibitors targeting the Nipah virus glycoprotein.

Scientific reports
The Nipah virus (NiV), a lethal pathogen from the Paramyxoviridae family, presents a significant global health threat as a result of its high mortality rate and inter-human transmission. This investigation employed in silico methods that were assiste...
