  • Shsearch: a Method for Fast Remote Homology Detection Baddar M
    SHsearch: a method for fast remote homology detection Baddar M. Faculty of Engineering, Alexandria University , Egypt Abstract—Remote homology detection is the problem of detecting homology in cases of low sequence similarity. It is a hard ​ computational problem with no approach that works well in all cases. Methods based on profile hidden Markov models (HMM) often exhibit relatively higher sensitivity for detecting remote homologies than commonly used approaches. However, calculating similarity scores in profile HMM methods is computationally intensive as they use dynamic programming algorithms. In this paper we introduce SHsearch: a new method for remote protein homology detection. Our method is implemented as a modification of HHsearch: a remote protein homology detection method based on comparing two profile HMMs. The motivation for modification was to reduce the run time of HHsearch significantly with minimal sensitivity loss. SHsearch focuses on comparing the important submodels of the query and database HMMs instead of comparing the complete models. Hence, SHsearch achieves a significant speedup over HHsearch with minimal loss in sensitivity. On SCOP 1.63, SHsearch achieved 88X speedup with 8.2% loss in sensitivity with respect to HHsearch at error rate of 10%, which deemed to be an acceptable tradeoff. Index Terms—biological sequence classification, hidden Markov models ​ —————————— ◆ —————————— ​ ​ ​ ​ 1 INTRODUCTION Analysis of large scale sequence data has become an important task in computational biology and comparative genomics, inspired in part by numerous scientific and technological applications such as the biomedical literature analysis or the analysis of biological sequences. Protein homology detection has attracted particular interest due to its critical role in many biological applications.

The neuronal transmission takes place in the nerve terminal, at a specialized structure called the synapse. Following neuronal activation, an electrical signal triggers neurotransmitter (NT) release at the active zone. The process starts by the signal reaching the synapse followed by a fusion of the synaptic vesicle and diffusion of the released NT in the synaptic cleft; the NT then binds to the appropriate receptor, and as a result, a potential change at the target cell membrane is induced. The entire process lasts for only a fraction of a millisecond. An essential property of the synapse is its capacity to undergo biochemical and morphological changes, a phenomenon that is referred to as synaptic plasticity. Results: In this survey, we consider the mammalian brain synapse as our model.
