TranCEP: Predicting transmembrane transport proteins using composition, evolutionary, and positional information Munira Alballa1, Faizah Aplop2, Gregory Butler1,3* 1 Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering, Concordia University, Montr´eal, Qu´ebec, Canada 2 School of Informatics and Applied Mathematics, Universiti Malaysia Terengganu, Malaysia 3 Centre for Structural and Functional Genomics, Concordia University, Montr´eal,Qu´ebec, Canada * [email protected] Abstract Transporters mediate the movement of compounds across the membranes that separate the cell from its environment, and across inner membranes surrounding cellular compartments. It is estimated that one third of a proteome consists of membrane proteins, and many of these are transport proteins. Given the increase in the number of genomes being sequenced, there is a need for computation tools that predict the substrates which are transported by the transmembrane transport proteins. In this paper, we present TranCEP, a predictor of the type of substrate transported by a transmembrane transport protein. TranCEP combines the traditional use of the amino acid composition of the protein, with evolutionary information captured in a multiple sequence alignment, and restriction to important positions of the alignment that play a role in determining specificity of the protein. Our experimental results show that TranCEP significantly outperforms the state of the art.

One of the systems modeled is the gene regulatory network that plays the critical role of controlling an organism's response to changes in its environment. Ideally, we would like a model of the complete gene regulatory network. In recent years, several advances in technology have permitted the collection of an unprecedented amount and variety of data such as genomes, gene expression data, time-series data, and perturbation data.

  • Statistic Models in Biological Network Analysis
    Statistic Models in Biological Network Analysis WANLU LIU and AUSTIN QUACH, University of California, Los Angeles As the development of high throughput technology, it becomes more and more important for us to look at the behavior of genes, proteins and metabolites at whole genome level. Instead of studying a single gene, by understanding biological process at network level, we can shed light on some new mechanisms in both developmental processes and diseases. Modeling of these networks is an important challenge in the post genomic era. Several statistical models have been applied to analysis the biological networks including logic-based models, continuous models and correlation-based models. In this review, we focus on the di↵erent methods for reconstructing biological networks and analysis of their functionality. Categories and Subject Descriptors: I.5.1 [Networks Analysis]: Models—Biological Networks General Terms: Network Analysis Additional Key Words and Phrases: Biological Network, Statistic Models, Network Construction, Network Analysis 1. INTRODUCTION In the post-genomic era, genome-wide experiments have become commonplace and methods to inter- rogate such datasets are becomingly increasingly important. One approach to analyzing these large datasets is to model the experimental observations using a network approach. In a process known as (re)construction, inference, identification or reverse engineering, model parameters are fit to the data yielding a defined network that can then be analyzed to gain higher level insights into the com- plex molecular biology. Network biology is an expansive field and there are many different methods that are employed. In this survey paper we briefly review the frameworks of several popular mod- eling methods including logical models, boolean networks, Bayesian networks, weighted correlation networks, differential equations, and some basic network analysis concepts.
