University of Pittsburgh, 2016 Genomic, proteomic and other experimentally generated data from studies of biological systems aiming to discover disease biomarkers are currently analyzed without sufficient supporting evidence from the literature due to complexities associated with automated processing. Extracting prior knowledge about markers associated with biological sample types and disease states from the literature is tedious, and little research has been performed to understand how to use this knowledge to inform the generation of classification models from ‘omic’ data. Using pathway analysis methods to better understand the underlying biology of complex diseases such as breast and lung cancers is state-of-the-art. However, the problem of how to combine literature- mining evidence with pathway analysis evidence is an open problem in biomedical informatics research.

Methods. hsa_circ_0007843 and hsa_circ_0007331 proved to be associated with CC in previous studies were chosen as the research object. ConSite database was used to predict the transcription factors associated with circRNA, and the CC-associated transcription factors were screened out after intersection. The CircInteractome database was used to predict the RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) interacting with circRNAs and screen out the CC-associated RBPs after an intersection. Furthermore, the CircInteractome database was used to predict the miRNAs interrelated with circRNAs, and the HMDD v3.2 database was used to search for miRNAs associated with CC.

PeerJ 2:e639 https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.639 Associating disease-related genetic variants in intergenic regions to the genes they impact We present a method to assist in interpretation of the functional impact of intergenic disease- associated SNPs that is not limited to search strategies proximal to the SNP. The method builds on two sources of external knowledge: the growing understanding of three-dimensional spatial relationships in the genome, and the substantial repository of information about relationships among genetic variants, genes, and diseases captured in the published biomedical literature. We integrate chromatin conformation capture data (HiC) with literature support to rank putative target genes of intergenic disease-associated SNPs. We PrePrints demonstrate that this hybrid method outperforms a genomic distance baseline on a small test set of expression quantitative trait loci, as well as either method individually. In addition, we show the potential for this method to uncover relationships between intergenic SNPs and target genes across chromosomes. With more extensive chromatin conformation capture data becoming readily available, this method provides a way forward towards functional interpretation of SNPs in the context of the three dimensional structure of the genome in the nucleus.

Loss and Gain of N-Linked Glycosylation Sequons Due to Single
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Loss and gain of N-linked glycosylation sequons due to single-nucleotide variation in Received: 30 November 2017 Accepted: 19 February 2018 cancer Published: xx xx xxxx Yu Fan1, Yu Hu1, Cheng Yan1, Radoslav Goldman2, Yang Pan1, Raja Mazumder1,3 & Hayley M. Dingerdissen 1 Despite availability of sequence site-specifc information resulting from years of sequencing and sequence feature curation, there have been few eforts to integrate and annotate this information. In this study, we update the number of human N-linked glycosylation sequons (NLGs), and we investigate cancer-relatedness of glycosylation-impacting somatic nonsynonymous single-nucleotide variation (nsSNV) by mapping human NLGs to cancer variation data and reporting the expected loss or gain of glycosylation sequon. We fnd 75.8% of all human proteins have at least one NLG for a total of 59,341 unique NLGs (includes predicted and experimentally validated). Only 27.4% of all NLGs are experimentally validated sites on 4,412 glycoproteins. With respect to cancer, 8,895 somatic-only nsSNVs abolish NLGs in 5,204 proteins and 12,939 somatic-only nsSNVs create NLGs in 7,356 proteins in cancer samples. nsSNVs causing loss of 24 NLGs on 23 glycoproteins and nsSNVs creating 41 NLGs on 40 glycoproteins are identifed in three or more cancers. Of all identifed cancer somatic variants causing potential loss or gain of glycosylation, only 36 have previously known disease associations. Although this work is computational, it builds on existing genomics and glycobiology research to promote identifcation and rank potential cancer nsSNV biomarkers for experimental validation.

Analysis of H3k4me3 and H3k27me3 Bivalent
Kaukonen et al. BMC Medical Genomics (2020) 13:92 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12920-020-00749-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Analysis of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 bivalent promotors in HER2+ breast cancer cell lines reveals variations depending on estrogen receptor status and significantly correlates with gene expression Damien Kaukonen1* , Riina Kaukonen2, Lélia Polit3, Bryan T. Hennessy4, Riikka Lund2 and Stephen F. Madden1 Abstract Background: The role of histone modifications is poorly characterized in breast cancer, especially within the major subtypes. While epigenetic modifications may enhance the adaptability of a cell to both therapy and the surrounding environment, the mechanisms by which this is accomplished remains unclear. In this study we focus on the HER2 subtype and investigate two histone trimethylations that occur on the histone 3; the trimethylation located at lysine 4 (H3K4me3) found in active promoters and the trimethylation located at lysine 27 (H3K27me3) that correlates with gene repression. A bivalency state is the result of the co-presence of these two marks at the same promoter. Methods: In this study we investigated the relationship between these histone modifications in promoter regions and their proximal gene expression in HER2+ breast cancer cell lines. In addition, we assessed these patterns with respect to the presence or absence of the estrogen receptor (ER). To do this, we utilized ChIP-seq and matching RNA-seq from publicly available data for the AU565, SKBR3, MB361 and UACC812 cell lines. In order to visualize these relationships, we used KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, and Kaplan-Meyer plots. Results: We found that the correlation between the three types of promoter trimethylation statuses (H3K4me3, H3K27me3 or both) and the expression of the proximal genes was highly significant overall, while roughly a third of all genes are regulated by this phenomenon.
