Newkome _______________________________ Date ii ABSTRACT A tremendous increase in genomic data has encouraged biologists to turn to bioinformatics in order to assist in its interpretation and processing. One of the present challenges that need to be overcome in order to understand this data more completely is the development of a reliable method to accurately predict the function of a protein from its genomic information. This study focuses on developing an effective algorithm for protein function prediction. The algorithm is based on proteins that have similar expression patterns. The similarity of the expression data is determined using a novel measure, the slope matrix. The slope matrix introduces a normalized method for the comparison of expression levels throughout a proteome. The algorithm is tested using real microarray gene expression data. Their functions are characterized using gene ontology annotations. The results of the case study indicate the protein function prediction algorithm developed is comparable to the prediction algorithms that are based on the annotations of homologous proteins.

  • Iii COMPUTATIONAL APPROACHES for ASSESSING KINOME
    COMPUTATIONAL APPROACHES FOR ASSESSING KINOME FUNCTION AND DEREGULATION A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Weill Cornell Graduate School of Medical Sciences in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Charles Joseph Murphy August 2018 iii © 2018 Charles Joseph Murphy ALL RIGHTS RESERVED COMPUTATIONAL APPROACHES FOR ASSESSING KINOME FUNCTION AND DEREGULATION Charles Joseph Murphy, PhD Cornell University 2018 Protein kinases are a diverse family of about 500 proteins that all share the common ability to catalyze phosphorylation of the side chains of amino acids in proteins. Kinases play a vital role across diverse biological functions including proliferation, differentiation, cell migration, and cell-cycle control. Moreover, they are frequently altered across most cancers types and have been a focus for development of anti- cancer drugs, which has led to the development of 38 approved kinase inhibitors as of 2018. In this thesis, I developed two orthogonal computational approaches for investigating kinase function and deregulation. Starting with data from a large cohort of mouse triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) tumors, I use a combination of whole exome sequencing (WES) and RNA-seq to identify somatic alterations that drive individual tumors. I discovered that a large number of these alterations involve protein kinases and subsequent therapeutic targeting led to tumor regression. For my second approach, I utilized a large peptide library dataset from about 300 kinases. Which kinase phosphorylate which phosphorylation site is determined by both kinase- intrinsic and contextual factors. Peptide library approaches provide kinase-intrinsic amino acid specificity, which I used to predict novel kinase substrates and map out kinase phosphorylation networks.

ABSTRACT Sirt1 facilitates the reprogramming of mouse somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). It is regulated by micro-RNA and reported to be a target of miR-135a. However, their relationship and roles on cellular reprogramming remain unknown. In this study, we found negative correlations between miR-135a and Sirt1 during mouse embryonic stem cells differentiation and mouse embryonic fibroblasts reprogramming. We further found that the reprogramming efficiency was reduced by the overexpression of miR-135a precursor but induced by the miR-135a inhibitor. Co-immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry identified 21 SIRT1 interacting proteins including KU70 and WRN, which were highly enriched for DNA damage repair.
