Analysis of Gene Expression Data for Gene Ontology
ANALYSIS OF GENE EXPRESSION DATA FOR GENE ONTOLOGY BASED PROTEIN FUNCTION PREDICTION A Thesis Presented to The Graduate Faculty of The University of Akron In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Robert Daniel Macholan May 2011 ANALYSIS OF GENE EXPRESSION DATA FOR GENE ONTOLOGY BASED PROTEIN FUNCTION PREDICTION Robert Daniel Macholan Thesis Approved: Accepted: _______________________________ _______________________________ Advisor Department Chair Dr. Zhong-Hui Duan Dr. Chien-Chung Chan _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the College Dr. Chien-Chung Chan Dr. Chand K. Midha _______________________________ _______________________________ Committee Member Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Yingcai Xiao Dr. George R. 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. -

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -

CELLULAR AND PROCESS ENGINEERING TO IMPROVE MAMMALIAN MEMBRANE PROTEIN EXPRESSION By Su Xiao A dissertation is submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland May 2015 © 2015 Su Xiao All Rights Reserved Abstract Improving the expression level of recombinant mammalian proteins has been pursued for production of commercial biotherapeutics in industry, as well as for biomedical studies in academia, as an adequate supply of correctly folded proteins is a prerequisite for all structure and function studies. Presented in this dissertation are different strategies to improve protein functional expression level, especially for membrane proteins. The model protein is neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1), a hard-to- express G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). GPCRs are integral membrane proteins playing a central role in cell signaling and are targets for most of the medicines sold worldwide. Obtaining adequate functional GPCRs has been a bottleneck in their structure studies because the expression of these proteins from mammalian cells is very low. The first strategy is the adoption of mammalian inducible expression system. A stable and inducible T-REx-293 cell line overexpressing an engineered rat NTSR1 was constructed. 2.5 million Functional copies of NTSR1 per cell were detected on plasma membrane, which is 167 fold improvement comparing to NTSR1 constitutive expression. The second strategy is production process development including suspension culture adaptation and induction parameter optimization. A further 3.5 fold improvement was achieved and approximately 1 milligram of purified functional NTSR1 per liter suspension culture was obtained. This was comparable yield to the transient baculovirus- insect cell system. -

It is required for (1,3,6,14–16). In the absence of ATP, the Hsp90 dimer acquires the activation and stabilization of more than 200 client proteins, an open, V-shaped structure such that the protomers interact via including many kinases and steroid hormone receptors involved in the C-terminal dimerization domain (16).
