The traditional string kernels assume that different substrings are independent. However, substrings can be highly correlated due to their substructure relationship or common physico-chemical properties. This paper proposes two kinds of weighted spectrum kernels： The correlation spectrum kernel and the AA spectrum kernel. We evMuate their performances by predicting glycan-binding proteins of 12 glycans. The results show that the correlation spectrum kernel and the AA spectrum kernel perform significantly better than the spectrum kernel for nearly all the 12 glycans. By comparing the predictive power of AA spectrum kernels constructed by different physico-chemical properties, the authors can also identify the physico- chemical properties which contributes the most to the glycan-protein binding. The results indicate that physico-chemical properties of amino acids in proteins play an important role in the mechanism of glycamprotein binding.展开更多

However, biological knowledge is still needed to improve the understanding of complex mechanisms such as plant immune responses. Better knowledge of this process could improve crop production and management. Here, we used holistic analysis to combine our own microarray and RNA-seq data with public genomic data from Arabidopsis and cassava in order to acquire biological knowledge about the relationships between proteins encoded by immunity-related genes （IRGs） and other genes. This approach was based on a kernel method adapted for the construction of gene networks. The obtained results allowed us to propose a list of new IRGs. A putative function in the immunity pathway was predicted for the new IRGs. The analysis of networks revealed that our predicted IRGs are either well documented or recognized in previous co-expression studies. In addition to robust relationships between IRGs, there is evidence suggesting that other cellular processes may be also strongly related to immunity.展开更多
