Predicting bacterial essential genes using only sequence composition information.
Essential genes are those genes that are needed by organisms at any time and under any conditions. It is very important for us to identify essential genes from bacterial genomes because of their vital role in synthetic biology and biomedical practices. In this paper, we developed a support vector machine (SVM)-based method to predict essential genes of bacterial genomes using only compositional...
متن کاملPredicting protein structure using only sequence information.
This paper presents results of blind predictions submitted to the CASP3 protein structure prediction experiment. We made predictions using the SAM-T98 method, an iterative hidden Markov model-based method for constructing protein family profiles. The method is purely sequence-based, using no structural information, and yet was able to predict structures as well as all but five of the structure-...
متن کاملPredicting Chemical Carcinogenesis Using Structural Information Only
This paper reports on the application of the Strongly Typed Evolutionary Programming System (STEPS) to the PTE2 challenge, which consists of predicting the carcinogenic activity of chemical compounds from their molecular structure and the outcomes of a number of laboratory analyses. Most contestants so far have relied heavily on results of short term toxicity (STT) assays. Using both types of i...
متن کاملPredicting essential genes based on network and sequence analysis.
Essential genes are indispensable to the viability of an organism. Identification and analysis of essential genes is key to understanding the systems level organization of living cells. On the other hand, the ability to predict these genes in pathogens is of great importance for directed drug development. Global analysis of protein interaction networks provides an effective way to elucidate the...
متن کاملPredicting bacterial transcription units using sequence and expression data
MOTIVATION A key aspect of elucidating gene regulation in bacterial genomes is identifying the basic units of transcription. We present a method, based on probabilistic language models, that we apply to predict operons, promoters and terminators in the genome of Escherichia coli K-12. Our approach has two key properties: (i) it provides a coherent set of predictions for related regulatory eleme...
