  2. Dealunay simplices classification

  3. Protein representation (Crambin)

  4. Delaunay simplex is defined by points, whose Voronoi polyhedra have common vertex Delaunay simplex is always a triangle in a 2D space and a tetrahedron in a 3D space Voronoi Tessellation Delaunay Tessellation Neighbor identification in proteins:Voronoi/Delaunay Tessellation in 2D

A22 L6 D3 F7 G62 K4 S64 R5 C63 Delaunay Tessellation of Protein Structure D (Asp) Cα or center of mass Abstract each amino acid to a point Atomic coordinates – Protein Data Bank (PDB) Delaunay tessellation: 3D “tiling” of space into non-overlapping, irregular tetrahedral simplices. Each simplex objectively defines a quadruplet of nearest-neighbor amino acids at its vertices.

  13. Observations: Relatively few mutant and wt structures of same protein have been solved Tessellations of mutant and wt protein structures are very similar or identical Approach: Obtain topological score (TSmut) and 3D-1D potential profile vector (Qmut) for any mutant protein by using the wt structure tessellation as a template Simply change the residue label at a given point(s) and re-compute Computational Mutagenesis Methodology s(R,D,A,L) A22 s(I,D,A,L) A22 s(R,G,F,L) s(I,G,F,L) L6 L6 D3 Mutation D3 F7 F7 (R5  I5) s(R,D,K,S) s(I,D,K,S) G62 G62 K4 K4 S64 S64 s(R,S,C,G) s(I,S,C,G) R5 I5 C63 C63 (TSwt, Qwt) (TSmut, Qmut)

  14. Scalar “Residual Score” of a mutant: (mutant – wt) topological score difference = TSmut – TSwt (empirical measure of relative structural change due to mutation) Vector “Residual Profile” of a mutant: R = Qmut – Qwt = (mutant – wt) 3D-1D potential profile difference (environmental perturbation score at every position in structure) Denote R = < EC1, EC2, EC3,…, ECN > ECi = qi,mut – qi,wt = relative Environmental Change at position i Geometric property: If mutant is due to a single substitution at position j, then ECj≡ mutant residual score (“epicenter” of impact) The only other nonzero EC components correspond to neighboring positions that participate in simplices with j Computational Mutagenesis Methodology

  15. Approach 1: Protein Topological Score (TS) • Obtained by summing the log-likelihood scores of all simplicial quadruplets defined by the protein tessellation • Global measure of protein sequence-structure compatibility • Total (empirical or statistical) potential of the protein TS = ∑îs(î), sum taken over all simplex quadruplets î in the entire tessellation. s(R,D,A,L) A22 s(R,G,F,L) L6 D3 F7 s(R,D,K,S) G62 K4 S64 s(R,S,C,G) R5 C63 Close-up view of only the four simplices that use R at position 5 as a vertex (hypothetical)

  16. Approach 2: Residue Environment Scores • For each amino acid position, locally sum the log-likelihood scores s(i,j,k,l) of only simplex quadruplets that include it as a vertex s(R,D,A,L) A22 s(R,G,F,L) L6 D3 Example:q5 = q(R5) = ∑(i,j,k,l)s(i,j,k,l), sum over all simplex quadruplets (i,j,k,l) that include amino acid R5 F7 s(R,D,K,S) G62 K4 S64 s(R,S,C,G) R5 C63 • The scores of all amino acid positions in the protein structure form a 3D-1DPotential Profilevector Q = < q1, q2, q3,…,qN > (N = length of primary sequence in solved structure)

  20. Functional Effects of Amino Acid Substitutions • Change in protein stability: • Effect on melting temperature: ΔTm = Tm (mutant) – Tm (wt) • Effect on thermal denaturation: ΔΔG = ΔG (mutant) – ΔG (wt) • Effect on denaturant denaturation: ΔΔGH2O = ΔGH2O (mutant) – ΔGH2O (wt) • Change in protein activity: • Mutant enzymatic activity relative to wt • Mutant strength of DNA binding relative to wt • Disease potential of human coding nsSNPs • Neutral polymorphism or disease-associated mutation? • For protein targets of inhibitor drugs: • Continued susceptibility or (degree of ) resistance that patients with the mutant protein have to the inhibitor • Inhibitor binding energy to mutant target relative to wt

  37. Evaluating Algorithm Performance • Overall goal: Develop model with known examples to accurately predict class (or value) of instances that have not yet been assayed experimentally (potentially great savings of time and money) • Ideal situation: split large original dataset into 3 subsets • Training set (learn model) • Validation set (optimize model by tweaking model parameters) • Test set (evaluate model on new data not used to develop model) • Errors measured at each step (resubstitution, validation, generalization) • Approaches: Tenfold cross-validation (10-fold CV); leave-one-out CV (i.e., jackknife or N-fold CV, N = dataset size); % split (e.g., use only 2/3 for training, 1/3 held out for testing)

  38. Evaluating Algorithm Performance • 10-fold CV • Randomly split the dataset instances into 10 equally-sized subsets • Hold-out subset 1; combine subsets 2-10 into one training set for learning a model; use trained model to predict classes of instances in subset 1 • Repeat previous step 9 more times (e.g., hold-out subset 2, combine subsets 1 and 3-10 together to train a model, use model to predict subset 2, etc) • We end up with 10 models, each trained using 90% of the original dataset, and each used to predict the held-out 10% subset. • In the end, each instance has one class prediction – compare to actual class • LOOCV (leave-one-out CV, jackknife, or N-fold CV) • Similar to above, but each subset contains only 1 instance • Deterministic – no randomness to which instances are grouped as subsets • Overall prediction accuracy provides rough idea of how a model trained with the full dataset will perform • % split (self-explanatory)

  39. Evaluating Algorithm Performance • Assume instances belong to two generic classes (Pos/Neg) • Results of comparing predictions with actual classes based on the approaches described (10-fold CV, LOOCV, % split) can be summarized in a confusion matrix: • Classification performance measures: accuracy = (TP+TN) / (TP+FP+TN+FN); sensitivity = TP / (TP+FN); specificity = TN / (TN+FP); precision = TP / (TP+FP); BER = 0.5 × [FP / (FP+TN) + FN / (FN+TP)]; MCC = (TP×TN – FP×FN) / (TP+FN)(TP+FP)(TN+FN)(TN+FP); AUC = area under ROC curve (plot of sensitivity vs. 1 – specificity) • For regression models: correlation coefficient, standard error Predicted as Pos Neg Actual class Pos Neg

  40. ROC Curve • Plot of true positive rate (sensitivity) versus false positive rate (1 – specificity) in the unit square • AUC = probability that classifier will rank a randomly chosen positive instance higher than a randomly chosen negative one • AUC ~ 0.5 (ROC close to diagonal line joining points (0,0) and (1,1)) suggests no signal in dataset and that trained model is not likely to perform any better than random guessing • AUC = 1 (piecewise linear ROC joining (0,0) to (0,1) and (0,1) to (1,1)) indicates a perfect classifier
