  • A Computational and Evolutionary Approach to Understanding Cryptic Unstable Transcripts in Yeast
    A Computational and Evolutionary Approach to Understanding Cryptic Unstable Transcripts in Yeast By Jessica M. Vera B.S. University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2007 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology 2015 This thesis entitled: A Computational and Evolutionary Approach to Understanding Cryptic Unstable Transcripts in Yeast written by Jessica M. Vera has been approved for the Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology Tom Blumenthal Robin Dowell Date The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline iii Vera, Jessica M. (Ph.D., Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology) A Computational and Evolutionary Approach to Understanding Cryptic Unstable Transcripts in Yeast Thesis Directed by Robin Dowell Cryptic unstable transcripts (CUTs) are a largely unexplored class of nuclear exosome degraded, non-coding RNAs in budding yeast. It is highly debated whether CUT transcription has a functional role in the cell or whether CUTs represent noise in the yeast transcriptome. I sought to ascertain the extent of conserved CUT expression across a variety of Saccharomyces yeast strains to further understand and characterize the nature of CUT expression. To this end I designed a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to analyze strand-specific RNA sequencing data from nuclear exosome rrp6Δ mutants to identify and compare CUTs in four different yeast strains: S288c, Σ1278b, JAY291 (S.cerevisiae) and N17 (S.paradoxus).

Bipartite network clustering problems aim to identify node groups with more edges between themselves and fewer edges to the rest of the network. The approaches for community detection in the bipartite network can roughly be classified into algorithmic and model-based methods. The algorithmic methods solve the problem either by greedy searches in a heuristic way or optimizing based on some criteria over all possible partitions. The model-based methods fit a generative model to the observed data and study the model in a statistically principled way. In this dissertation, we mainly focus on bipartite clustering under two scenarios: incorporation of node covariates and detection of mixed membership communities.

  • Bioengineering Professor Trey Ideker Wins 2009 Overton Prize
    Bioengineering Professor Trey Ideker Wins 2009 Overton Prize March 13, 2009 Daniel Kane University of California, San Diego bioengineering professor Trey Ideker-a network and systems biology pioneer-has won the International Society for Computational Biology's Overton Prize. The Overton prize is awarded each year to an early-to-mid-career scientist who has already made a significant contribution to the field of computational biology. Trey Ideker is an Associate Professor of Bioengineering at UC San Diego's Jacobs School of Engineering, Adjunct Professor of Computer Science, and member of the Moores UCSD Cancer Center. He is a pioneer in using genome-scale measurements to construct network models of cellular processes and disease. His recent research activities include development of software and algorithms for protein network analysis, network-level comparison of pathogens, and genome-scale models of the response to DNA-damaging agents. "Receiving this award is a wonderful honor and helps to confirm that the work we have been doing for the past several years has been useful to people," said Ideker. "This award also provides great recognition to UC San Diego which has fantastic bioinformatics programs both at the undergraduate and graduate level. I could never have done it without the help of some really first-rate bioinformatics and bioengineering graduate students," said Ideker. Ideker is on the faculty of the Jacobs School of Engineering's Department of Bioengineering, which ranks 2nd in the nationfor biomedical engineering, according to the latest US News rankings. The bioengineering department has ranked among the top five programs in the nation every year for the past decade.

Dedicated to my family Abstract Disentangling the relationship between genotype and phenotype is a major open ques- tion in biology. Since natural selection acts on phenotypes, the need to maintain organ- ismal fitness leaves a trace of functional constraints in the underlying genotypes. We analyze abundantly available genotype data of homologous proteins from genomic se- quencing for patterns of amino acid conservation and covariation. Based on statistical maximum entropy models of sequence coevolution to identify such evolutionary cou- plings, we developed computational methods to predict phenotypes that are difficult to obtain by experiment, on three different scales: (i) the three-dimensional structures of membrane proteins through coevolving sites
