Mining Phenotypes for Protein Function Prediction
Until very recently, phenotypes only very rarely were studied in a systematic manner. While ontologies for describing gene functions now have a 10 year long tradition, similar vocabularies for describing the phenotype of genes are only emerging now; similarly, the techniques for determining phenotypes on a large scale (especially RNAi) are available only for a few years, while genomic sequencin...
متن کاملFuzzy Mining Approach for Gene Clustering and Gene Function Prediction
Microarray technology helps biologists for monitoring expression of thousands of genes in a single experiment on a small chip. Microarray is also called as DNA chip, gene chip, or biochip is used to analyze the gene expression profiles. After genome sequencing, DNA microarray analysis has become the most widely used functional genomics approach in the bioinformatics field. Biologists are vastly...
متن کاملPhenotypes for Prediction: Gene Expression and Genetic Exceptionalism
In the wake of the post-genomics era, United States legislators enacted the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) of 2008 in an effort to combat looming threats of discrimination and to relinquish citizen‟s fears of genetic testing. GINA, like other questioned nondiscrimination laws before it, only protects genotypes. Multiple scholars have insisted these provisions are unjustified a...
متن کاملHierarchical Boosting for Gene Function Prediction
Functional classification of genes using diverse bio-molecular data obtained from high-throughput technologies is a fundamental problem in bioinformatics and functional genomics. Genes are organized and classified according to a hierarchical classification scheme and each gene will participate in multiple activities. Flat classifiers, that work on non-hierarchical classification problems indepe...
متن کاملIncorporating Gene Annotation into Genomic Prediction of Complex Phenotypes.
Today, genomic prediction (GP) is an established technology in plant and animal breeding programs. Current standard methods are purely based on statistical considerations but do not make use of the abundant biological knowledge, which is easily available from public databases. Major questions that have to be answered before biological prior information can be used routinely in GP approaches are...
