Protein Structural Class

Protein structural class prediction is beneficial to protein structure and function analysis. Exploring good feature representation is a key step for this prediction task. Prior works have demonstrated the effectiveness of the secondary structure based feature extraction methods especially for lowsimilarity protein sequences. However, the prediction accuracies still remain limited. To explore the potential of secondary structure information, a novel feature extraction method based on a generalized chaos game representation of predicted secondary structure is proposed. Each protein sequence is converted into a 20-dimensional distance-related statistical feature vector to characterize the distribution of secondary structure elements and segments. The feature vectors are then fed into a support vector machine classifier to predict the protein structural class. Our experiments on three widely used lowsimilarity benchmark datasets (25PDB, 1189 and 640) show that the proposed method achieves superior performance to the state-of-the-art methods. It is anticipated that our method could be extended to other graphical representations of protein sequence and be helpful in future protein research.

This thesis explores machine learning models based on various feature sets to solve the protein structural class prediction problem which is a significant classification problem in bioinformatics. Knowledge of protein structural classes contributes to an understanding of protein folding patterns, and this has made structural class prediction research a major topic of interest. In this thesis, features are extracted from predicted secondary structure and hydropathy sequence using new strategies to classify proteins into one of the four major structural classes: all-α, all-β, α/β, and α+β. The prediction accuracy using these features compares favourably with some existing successful methods. We use Support Vector Machines (SVM), since this learning method has well-known efficiency in solving this classification problem. On a standard dataset (25PDB), the proposed system has an overall accuracy of 89% with as few as 22 features, whereas the previous best performing method had an accuracy of 88% using 2510 features.

: The fast growing of protein sequencing and protein structure data has promoted the development of the protein structural class prediction. Several prediction methods have been proposed to study protein folding rate, DNA binding sites, as well as reducing the search of conformational space and realizing the prediction of tertiary structure. This paper introduces the current approaches of protein structural class prediction and emphasize their steps from information extraction to classification algorithms.
