“…However, as elucidated in Chou 55 in the above three choices, the jackknife test has been demonstrated to be the least arbitrary that can always yield a unique outcome for a given benchmark dataset. Therefore, the jackknife test has been widely recognized and increasingly adopted by researchers to analyze the quality of various predictors 83, 103, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 131. In view of this, we also used the jackknife test to examine the quality of the current prediction method.…”

There are many different types of RNA modifications, which are essential for numerous biological processes. Knowledge about the occurrence sites of RNA modifications in its sequence is a key for in-depth understanding of their biological functions and mechanism. Unfortunately, it is both time-consuming and laborious to determine these sites purely by experiments alone. Although some computational methods were developed in this regard, each one could only be used to deal with some type of modification individually. To our knowledge, no method has thus far been developed that can identify the occurrence sites for several different types of RNA modifications with one seamless package or platform. To address such a challenge, a novel platform called “iRNA-PseColl” has been developed. It was formed by incorporating both the individual and collective features of the sequence elements into the general pseudo K-tuple nucleotide composition (PseKNC) of RNA via the chemicophysical properties and density distribution of its constituent nucleotides. Rigorous cross-validations have indicated that the anticipated success rates achieved by the proposed platform are quite high. To maximize the convenience for most experimental biologists, the platform’s web-server has been provided at http://lin.uestc.edu.cn/server/iRNA-PseColl along with a step-by-step user guide that will allow users to easily achieve their desired results without the need to go through the mathematical details involved in this paper.

Involved with important cellular or gene functions and implicated with many kinds of cancers, piRNAs, or piwi-interacting RNAs, are of small non-coding RNA with around 19–33 nt in length. Given a small non-coding RNA molecule, can we predict whether it is of piRNA according to its sequence information alone? Furthermore, there are two types of piRNA: one has the function of instructing target mRNA deadenylation, and the other does not. Can we discriminate one from the other? With the avalanche of RNA sequences emerging in the postgenomic age, it is urgent to address the two problems for both basic research and drug development. Unfortunately, to the best of our knowledge, so far no computational methods whatsoever could be used to deal with the second problem, let alone deal with the two problems together. Here, by incorporating the physicochemical properties of nucleotides into the pseudo K-tuple nucleotide composition (PseKNC), we proposed a powerful predictor called 2L-piRNA. It is a two-layer ensemble classifier, in which the first layer is for identifying whether a query RNA molecule is piRNA or non-piRNA, and the second layer for identifying whether a piRNA is with or without the function of instructing target mRNA deadenylation. Rigorous cross-validations have indicated that the success rates achieved by the proposed predictor are quite high. For the convenience of most biologists and drug development scientists, the web server for 2L-piRNA has been established at http://bioinformatics.hitsz.edu.cn/2L-piRNA/, by which users can easily get their desired results without the need to go through the mathematical details.

“…Of these three, however, the jackknife test is deemed the least arbitrary that can always yield a unique outcome for a given benchmark dataset as elucidated in [13]. Accordingly, the jackknife test has been widely recognized and increasingly used by investigators to examine the quality of various predictors (see, e.g., [79, 80] [81–84]). Therefore, the jackknife test was also adopted in this study to score the metrics of Eq.7.…”

iROS-gPseKNC: Predicting replication origin sites in DNA by incorporating dinucleotide position-specific propensity into general pseudo nucleotide composition

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

DNA replication, occurring in all living organisms and being the basis for biological inheritance, is the process of producing two identical replicas from one original DNA molecule. To in-depth understand such an important biological process and use it for developing new strategy against genetics diseases, the knowledge of duplication origin sites in DNA is indispensible. With the explosive growth of DNA sequences emerging in the postgenomic age, it is highly desired to develop high throughput tools to identify these regions purely based on the sequence information alone. In this paper, by incorporating the dinucleotide position-specific propensity information into the general pseudo nucleotide composition and using the random forest classifier, a new predictor called iROS-gPseKNC was proposed. Rigorously cross–validations have indicated that the proposed predictor is significantly better than the best existing method in sensitivity, specificity, overall accuracy, and stability. Furthermore, a user-friendly web-server for iROS-gPseKNC has been established at http://www.jci-bioinfo.cn/iROS-gPseKNC, by which users can easily get their desired results without the need to bother the complicated mathematics, which were presented just for the integrity of the methodology itself.
