Abstract
Biological sequence analysis is an important basic research work in the field of bioinformatics. With the explosive growth of data, machine learning methods play an increasingly important role in biological sequence analysis. By constructing a classifier for prediction, the input sequence feature vector is predicted and evaluated, and the knowledge of gene structure, function and evolution is obtained from a large amount of sequence information, which lays a foundation for researchers to carry out in-depth research. At present, many machine learning methods have been applied to biological sequence analysis such as RNA gene recognition and protein secondary structure prediction. As a biological sequence, RNA plays an important biological role in the encoding, decoding, regulation and expression of genes. The analysis of RNA data is currently carried out from the aspects of structure and function, including secondary structure prediction, non-coding RNA identification and functional site prediction. Pseudouridine (У) is the most widespread and rich RNA modification and has been discovered in a variety of RNAs. It is highly essential for the study of related functional mechanisms and disease diagnosis to accurately identify У sites in RNA sequences. At present, several computational approaches have been suggested as an alternative to experimental methods to detect У sites, but there is still potential for improvement in their performance. In this study, we present a model based on twin support vector machine (TWSVM) for У site identification. The model combines a variety of feature representation techniques and uses the max-relevance and min-redundancy methods to obtain the optimum feature subset for training. The independent testing accuracy is improved by 3.4% in comparison to current advanced У site predictors. The outcomes demonstrate that our model has better generalization performance and improves the accuracy of У site identification. iPseU-TWSVM can be a helpful tool to identify У sites.

Identification of DNA-binding proteins via Multi-view LSSVM with independence criterion. Methods 2022; 207:29-37.

Abstract
DNA-binding proteins actively participate in life activities such as DNA replication, recombination, gene expression and regulation and play a prominent role in these processes. As DNA-binding proteins continue to be discovered and increase, it is imperative to design an efficient and accurate identification tool. Considering the time-consuming and expensive traditional experimental technology and the insufficient number of samples in the biological computing method based on structural information, we proposed a machine learning algorithm based on sequence information to identify DNA binding proteins, named multi-view Least Squares Support Vector Machine via Hilbert-Schmidt Independence Criterion (multi-view LSSVM via HSIC). This method took 6 feature sets as multi-view input and trains a single view through the LSSVM algorithm. Then, we integrated HSIC into LSSVM as a regular term to reduce the dependence between views and explored the complementary information of multiple views. Subsequently, we trained and coordinated the submodels and finally combined the submodels in the form of weights to obtain the final prediction model. On training set PDB1075, the prediction results of our model were better than those of most existing methods. Independent tests are conducted on the datasets PDB186 and PDB2272. The accuracy of the prediction results was 85.5% and 79.36%, respectively. This result exceeded the current state-of-the-art methods, which showed that the multi-view LSSVM via HSIC can be used as an efficient predictor.

Prediction of Cell-Penetrating Peptides Using a Novel HSIC-Based Multiview TSK Fuzzy System. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022.

Abstract
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are short peptides that can carry cargo into cells. CPPs are widely utilized due to their powerful loading capacity and transduction efficiency. Identifying CPPs is the basis for studying their functions and mechanisms; however, experimental methods to identify CPPs are expensive and time-consuming. Recently, CPP predictors based on machine learning methods have become a research hotspot. Although considerable progress has been made, some challenges remain unresolved. First, most predictors employ a variety of feature descriptors to transform an original sequence into multiview data; however, extant methods ignore the relationships between different views, limiting further performance improvement. Second, most machine learning models are actually black boxes and cannot offer insightful advice. In this paper, a novel Hilbert–Schmidt independence criterion (HSIC)-based multiview TSK fuzzy system is proposed. Compared with other machine learning methods, TSK fuzzy systems have better interpretability, and the introduction of multiview mechanisms provides comprehensive insight into the intrinsic laws of the data. HSIC is utilized here to measure the independence and enhance the complementarity between different views. Notably, the proposed method attained prediction accuracy results of 92.2% and 96.2% for the training and independent test sets, respectively. The empirical results show that our promising approach features greater recognition performance than the state-of-the-art method.

Abstract
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a large locus on vertebrate DNA that contains a tightly linked set of polymorphic genes encoding cell surface proteins essential for the adaptive immune system. The groups of proteins encoded in the MHC play an important role in the adaptive immune system. Therefore, the accurate identification of the MHC is necessary to understand its role in the adaptive immune system. An effective predictor called PredMHC is established in this study to identify the MHC from protein sequences. Firstly, PredMHC encoded a protein sequence with mixed features including 188D, APAAC, KSCTriad, CKSAAGP, and PAAC. Secondly, three classifiers including SGD, SMO, and random forest were trained on the mixed features of the protein sequence. Finally, the prediction result was obtained by the voting of the three classifiers. The experimental results of the 10-fold cross-validation test in the training dataset showed that PredMHC can obtain 91.69% accuracy. Experimental results on comparison with other features, classifiers, and existing methods showed the effectiveness of PredMHC in predicting the MHC.

HKAM-MKM: A hybrid kernel alignment maximization-based multiple kernel model for identifying DNA-binding proteins. Comput Biol Med 2022; 145:105395. [PMID: 35334314 DOI: 10.1016/j.compbiomed.2022.105395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2022] [Revised: 03/08/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
The identification of DNA-binding proteins (DBPs) has always been a hot issue in the field of sequence classification. However, considering that the experimental identification method is very resource-intensive, the construction of a computational prediction model is worthwhile. This study developed and evaluated a hybrid kernel alignment maximization-based multiple kernel model (HKAM-MKM) for predicting DBPs. First, we collected two datasets and performed feature extraction on the sequences to obtain six feature groups, and then constructed the corresponding kernels. To ensure the effective utilisation of the base kernel and avoid ignoring the difference between the sample and its neighbours, we proposed local kernel alignment to calculate the kernel between the sample and its neighbours, with each sample as the centre. We combined the global and local kernel alignments to develop a hybrid kernel alignment model, and balance the relationship between the two through parameters. By maximising the hybrid kernel alignment value, we obtained the weight of each kernel and then linearly combined the kernels in the form of weights. Finally, the fused kernel was input into a support vector machine for training and prediction. Finally, in the independent test sets PDB186 and PDB2272, we obtained the highest Matthew's correlation coefficient (MCC) (0.768 and 0.5962, respectively) and the highest accuracy (87.1% and 78.43%, respectively), which were superior to the other predictors. Therefore, HKAM-MKM is an efficient prediction tool for DBPs.

Abstract
Antioxidant proteins can not only balance the oxidative stress in the body, but are also an important component of antioxidant drugs. Accurate identification of antioxidant proteins is essential to help humans fight diseases and develop new drugs. In this paper, we developed a friendly method AOPM to identify antioxidant proteins. 188D and the Composition of k-spaced Amino Acid Pairs were adopted as the feature extraction method. In addition, the Max-Relevance-Max-Distance algorithm (MRMD) and random forest were the feature selection and classifier, respectively. We used 5-folds cross-validation and independent test dataset to evaluate our model. On the test dataset, AOPM presented a higher performance compared with the state-of-the-art methods. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, Matthew’s Correlation Coefficient and an Area Under the Curve reached 87.3, 94.2, 92.0%, 0.815 and 0.972, respectively. In addition, AOPM still has excellent performance in predicting the catalytic enzymes of antioxidant drugs. This work proved the feasibility of virtual drug screening based on sequence information and provided new ideas and solutions for drug development.
