چکیده

In this paper we introduce the notion of protein interaction network. This is a graph whose vertices are the protein’s amino acids and whose edges are the interactions between them. Using a graph theory approach, we identify a number of properties of these networks. Some of them are common to all proteins, while others depend on the structure arrangement. The last group of properties allows to characterize structural classes, defined by CATH or SCOP, in the terms of interaction network properties.

Study of PKA binding sites in cAMP-signaling pathway using structural protein-protein interaction networks

Backgroud: Protein-protein interaction, plays a key role in signal transduction in signaling pathways. Different approaches are used for prediction of these interactions including experimental and computational approaches. In conventional node-edge protein-protein interaction networks, we can only see which proteins interact but ‘structural networks’ show us how these proteins inter...

Prediction of Protein Sub-Mitochondria Locations Using Protein Interaction Networks

Background: Prediction of the protein localization is among the most important issues in the bioinformatics that is used for the prediction of the proteins in the cells and organelles such as mitochondria. In this study, several machine learning algorithms are applied for the prediction of the intracellular protein locations. These algorithms use the features extracted from pro...

GENERATING FUZZY RULES FOR PROTEIN CLASSIFICATION

This paper considers the generation of some interpretable fuzzy rules for assigning an amino acid sequence into the appropriate protein superfamily. Since the main objective of this classifier is the interpretability of rules, we have used the distribution of amino acids in the sequences of proteins as features. These features are the occurrence probabilities of six exchange groups in the seque...

Building a parallel between structural and topological properties.

In this chapter, we study the amino acid interaction networks. An amino acid interaction network is a graph whose vertices are the protein's amino acids and whose edges are the interactions between them. Using a graph theory approach, we identify a number of properties of these networks. Some of them are common to all proteins, while others depend on the structure arrangement. We rely on the la...

Propensity based classification: Dehalogenase and non-dehalogenase enzymes

The present work was designed to classify and differentiate between the dehalogenase enzyme to non–dehalogenases (other hydrolases) by taking the amino acid propensity at the core, surface and both the parts. The data sets were made on an individual basis by selecting the 3D structures of protein available in the PDB (Protein Data Bank). The prediction of the core amino acid were predicted by I...
