Abstract
An adequate visualization form is required to gain an overview and ultimately understand the complex and diverse biological mechanisms of diseases. Recently, disease maps have been introduced for this purpose. A disease map is defined as a systems biological map or model that combines metabolic, signaling, and physiological pathways to create a comprehensive overview of known disease mechanisms. With the increase in publications describing biological interactions, efforts in creating and curating comprehensive disease maps is growing accordingly. Therefore, new computational approaches are needed to reduce the time that manual curation takes. Test mining algorithms can be used to analyse the natural language of scientific publications. These types of algorithms can take humanly readable text passages and convert them into a more ordered, machine-usable data structure. To support the creation of disease maps by text mining, we developed an interactive, user-friendly disease map viewer. The disease map viewer displays text mining results in a systems biology map, where the user can review them and either validate or reject identified interactions. Ultimately, the viewer brings together the time-saving advantages of text mining with the accuracy of manual data curation.

Overview of methods for characterization and visualization of a protein–protein interaction network in a multi-omics integration context. Front Mol Biosci 2022; 9:962799. [PMID: 36158572 PMCID: PMC9494275 DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2022.962799] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2022] [Accepted: 08/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
At the heart of the cellular machinery through the regulation of cellular functions, protein–protein interactions (PPIs) have a significant role. PPIs can be analyzed with network approaches. Construction of a PPI network requires prediction of the interactions. All PPIs form a network. Different biases such as lack of data, recurrence of information, and false interactions make the network unstable. Integrated strategies allow solving these different challenges. These approaches have shown encouraging results for the understanding of molecular mechanisms, drug action mechanisms, and identification of target genes. In order to give more importance to an interaction, it is evaluated by different confidence scores. These scores allow the filtration of the network and thus facilitate the representation of the network, essential steps to the identification and understanding of molecular mechanisms. In this review, we will discuss the main computational methods for predicting PPI, including ones confirming an interaction as well as the integration of PPIs into a network, and we will discuss visualization of these complex data.

Abstract
In the modern health care research, protein phosphorylation has gained an enormous attention from the researchers across the globe and requires automated approaches to process a huge volume of data on proteins and their modifications at the cellular level. The data generated at the cellular level is unique as well as arbitrary, and an accumulation of massive volume of information is inevitable. Biological research has revealed that a huge array of cellular communication aided by protein phosphorylation and other similar mechanisms imply different and diverse meanings. This led to a collection of huge volume of data to understand the biological functions of human evolution, especially for combating diseases in a better way. Text mining, an automated approach to mine the information from an unstructured data, finds its application in extracting protein phosphorylation information from the biomedical literature databases such as PubMed. This chapter outlines a recent text mining protocol that applies natural language parsing (NLP) for named entity recognition and text processing, and support vector machines (SVM), a machine learning algorithm for classifying the processed text related human protein phosphorylation. We discuss on evaluating the text mining system which is the outcome of the protocol on three corpora, namely, human Protein Phosphorylation (hPP) corpus, Integrated Protein Literature Information and Knowledge corpus (iProLink), and Phosphorylation Literature corpus (PLC). We also present a basic understanding on the chemistry and biology that drive the protein phosphorylation process in a human body. We believe that this basic understanding will be useful to advance the existing text mining systems for extracting protein phosphorylation information from PubMed.

Abstract
Many important scientific discoveries require lengthy experimental processes of trial and error and could benefit from intelligent prioritization based on deep domain understanding. While exponential growth in the scientific literature makes it difficult to keep current in even a single domain, that same rapid growth in literature also presents an opportunity for automated extraction of knowledge via text mining. We have developed a web application implementation of the KinderMiner algorithm for proposing ranked associations between a list of target terms and a key phrase. Any key phrase and target term list can be used for biomedical inquiry. We built the web application around a text index derived from PubMed. It is the first publicly available implementation of the algorithm, is fast and easy to use, and includes an interactive analysis tool. The KinderMiner web application is a public resource offering scientists a cohesive summary of what is currently known about a particular topic within the literature, and helping them to prioritize experiments around that topic. It performs comparably or better to similar state-of-the-art text mining tools, is more flexible, and can be applied to any biomedical topic of interest. It is also continually improving with quarterly updates to the underlying text index and through response to suggestions from the community. The web application is available at

Abstract
MOTIVATION Procedures for structural modeling of protein-protein complexes (protein docking) produce a number of models which need to be further analyzed and scored. Scoring can be based on independently determined constraints on the structure of the complex, such as knowledge of amino acids essential for the protein interaction. Previously, we showed that text mining of residues in freely available PubMed abstracts of papers on studies of protein-protein interactions may generate such constraints. However, absence of post-processing of the spotted residues reduced usability of the constraints, as a significant number of the residues were not relevant for the binding of the specific proteins. RESULTS We explored filtering of the irrelevant residues by two machine learning approaches, Deep Recursive Neural Network (DRNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) models with different training/testing schemes. The results showed that the DRNN model is superior to the SVM model when training is performed on the PMC-OA full-text articles and applied to classification (interface or non-interface) of the residues spotted in the PubMed abstracts. When both training and testing is performed on full-text articles or on abstracts, the performance of these models is similar. Thus, in such cases, there is no need to utilize computationally demanding DRNN approach, which is computationally expensive especially at the training stage. The reason is that SVM success is often determined by the similarity in data/text patterns in the training and the testing sets, whereas the sentence structures in the abstracts are, in general, different from those in the full text articles. AVAILABILITYAND IMPLEMENTATION The code and the datasets generated in this study are available at https://gitlab.ku.edu/vakser-lab-public/text-mining/-/tree/2020-09-04. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
