#acl BaderLabGroup:read,write,revert,delete All: == Proteome scanning of PDZ domain interactions using support vector machines == ## == Table of Contents == ## <> == Motivation == PDZ domains mediate important biological processes through the recognition of short linear motifs. Two recent independent high through put protein microarray and phage display experiments have been used to detect PDZ domain interactions. Several computational predictors of PDZ domain interactions have also been developed, however they are trained using only protein microarray data or focus on limited subsets of PDZ domains. An accurate predictor of genomic PDZ domain interactions would allow the proteomes of organisms to be scanned for potential binders. Such an application would require not only an accurate but precise predictor due to the thousands of possible interactors in a given proteome. However, once validated these predictions would increase the coverage of current PDZ domain interaction networks and further our understanding of the biologically processes they mediate. == Results == We developed a PDZ domain interaction predictor using SVMs trained with both protein microarray and phage display data. In order to use the phage display data for training, we developed a method to deterministically generate artificial negative interactions for the phage display data since it consisted of positive interactions only. Through extensive blind testing we showed that the SVM could predict interactions in different organisms. We then used the SVM to scan the proteomes of different organisms to predict binders for several PDZ domains. Predictions were validated using PDZBase or protein microarray data and a comparison of F1 measures and FPRs between the SVM and published or commonly used predictors demonstrated the SVM’s improved accuracy and precision. == Supplementary Data == a.

Literature review related to domain specificity (background activity), PDZ domains (from Ioana's project) ## 1. --(Run !ResidueResidue correlation analysis on PDZ domain data: 1-1 version + try others e.g. 1-2 (Requires: PDZ profiles from Gary))-- ## 1. MSA subproject ## 1. --(Learn basics of multiple sequence alignment (Baxevanis, chapter 12))-- ## 1. Find and evaluate MSA algorithms (compare notes with Stacy) + evaluate Superfamily, PFAM databases of protein family alignments ## 1. Try different multiple sequence alignment algorithms (MSA) on the PDZ domain sequences to see if they affect the correlation results. ## 1. Benchmark/validate correlation subproject ## 1. We know H (PDZ), T @-2 (peptide) correlation ## 1. Look at structures (e.g. 1N7T and 1BE9) to see if correlated residues/positions are close to each other and compatible (physicochemically). We need to focus on ## PDZ structures that have bound peptides (search in PDB) ## 1. Build set of known true and false correlations for use in evaluating prediction algorithm (Note: also ask Dev Sidhu, when available). See [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=10871264 Baldi et al. review] ## 1. Amino acid group subproject ## 1. Learn about amino acid groups ## 1. Define an initial aa grouping (reasonable grouping from Levy paper) ## 1. Add new feature to !ResidueResidueCorrelation class so it considers grouping + run on PDZ data. This involves implementing the groups as a reduced alphabet (amino acids in a group are considered equivalent) ## 1. Try all groupings to see how it affects the results (from Levy paper) ## 1. See if we can incorporate aa similarity defined by substitution matrix approach (e.g. BLOSUM, PAM, GONNET) into our method, instead of grouping ## 1. Similarly, evaluate aa similarity defined by factor analysis (Atchley et al paper) ## 1. Think about new PDZ domain features that can be used for prediction. ## == Ideas == ## * [wiki:/MachineLearning Machine Learning Page] ## * With current correlation counting calculation, Weight calculation by how many peptides are in the peptides file (i.e. normalize the correlation calculation in some way) ## * Build tools to help interpret correlations in the context of multiple sequence alignments (and later structures). ## * Use of structural data (PDZ domain structures) (may require homology modeling) ## * Use of machine learning methods (SVM for classification and boosting decision tree for interpretable learning model) ## * Analysis of correlation within domain and peptide (inter-residue correlation) maybe correspondence analysis ## * Analysis of SNPs and how they affect domain binding (including correlations between SNPs) ## * Define the binding site of the PDZ domain based on phage display data. Given that identical binding sites between two PDZ domains should correspond to identical ## binding specificities, find the set of PDZ domain sites that correlate perfectly with binding specificity. ## == Courses == ## === Biology === ## * [http://bio250y.chass.utoronto.ca/ BIO250] - Cell and Molecular Biology ## * Classes: Tues/Thurs - 1-2 PM (Convocation Hall) OR Mon - 6-8 PM (MC 102-Mechanical Engineering Building) ## * Textbook: [http://www.amazon.com/Molecular-Biology-Fourth-Bruce-Alberts/dp/0815332181/ref=pd_sim_b_1/105-5132391-0345258?ie=UTF8&qid=1188913552&sr=1-4 Molecular Biology of the Cell 4th Ed.] Alberts et al. ## === Protein Structure === ## * BCH340H1 - Proteins: from Structure to Proteomics ## * Classes: Winter 2008 ## * Textbook: ? ## * Previous Course Web Pages: ## * [http://arrhenius.med.utoronto.ca/~chan/bch340h04-outline.html 2004 Chan] ## * [http://xtal.uhnres.utoronto.ca/prive/BCH340/ 2006 Prive] ## === Machine Learning === ## * CSC2515 - Machine Learning ## * Previous Course Web Pages: ## * [http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~roweis/csc2515/ 2003-2006 Roweis] ## == Committee Meetings == ## * [[/Meeting|Notes]] ## == Tools/Resources == ## * [[/ToolsResources|Tools and Resources]] ## == Reading Notes == ## * [[/../ShirleyHui/MBCReadings|Molecular Biology of the Cell]] ## * [[/../ShirleyHui/PPIReadings|Protein-protein Interaction Detection]] ## * Support Vector Machines ## == Related Literature == ## * [[http://www.connotea.org/rss/user/s2hui?download=view|Literature List on Connotea]] ## * [[http://www.baderlab.org/DomainSpecificityPredictionProject/Reading|Molecular Biology of the Cell]] == Team == * Shirley Hui * Gary Bader ---- CategoryProject
