πŸ“‘Machine learning methods, databases and tools for drug combination prediction

πŸ’₯From abstract: The object of this study is to introduce and discuss the recent applications of ML methods and the widely used databases in drug combination prediction. In this study, we first describe the concept and controversy of synergism between drug combinations. Then, we investigate various publicly available data resources and tools for prediction tasks. Next, ML methods including classic ML and deep learning methods applied in drug combination prediction are introduced. Finally, we summarize the challenges to ML methods in prediction tasks and provide a discussion on future work.

πŸ“‘A review of bioinformatic pipeline frameworks

Abstract: High-throughput bioinformatic analyses increasingly rely on pipeline frameworks to process sequence and metadata. Modern implementations of these frameworks differ on three key dimensions: using an implicit or explicit syntax, using a configuration, convention or class-based design paradigm and offering a command line or workbench interface. Here I survey and compare the design philosophies of several current pipeline frameworks. I provide practical recommendations based on analysis requirements and the user base.

πŸ”ŽDetails:
1. Load an interaction network on cytoscape from a file (uses bioGRID)
2. Filter nodes by species and create a sub-network from filtered nodes
3. Add your gene expression data to the network in the form of a table
4. Change the color of the nodes to represent the changes in gene expression
5. Search for a specific node in the network and create a sub-network from all nodes that interact with this node
6. Change the layout of the network
7. Save the network as an image
8. Save the node or edge table as a .csv file

πŸ“‘Gene Identification Tools in Bioinformatics
πŸ’₯One of the most essential aspects of bioinformatics is gene prediction. Gene prediction involves locating regions of genomic DNA that encode genes (protein-coding genes). Gene prediction or gene identification is extremely important because it helps scientists to distinguish between coding and non-coding regions of a genome, explain genes in terms of their function, conduct research related to detection, treatment, and prevention of genetic disorder diseases, etc. Genes are identified broadly via two methods, i.e., a) similarity-based searches and b) Ab-initio prediction. These methods are briefly discussed and related tools introduced.
