Forecasting of AA states for best models

Forecasting of AA states for best models….

e.g. for AR(1) process,

X t = φ X (t-1) + Z (t), t=0,± 1,….

Where {Z t}~ WN (0, s2) & | φ | <1

1st observed potential for AA with index given as data points & t respectively, prediction starts from 2nd position up to last index

using forecast() “itsmr”

Similarly for ARMA (1,1) /ARIMA (1,1)

X t = φ X (t-1) + Z (t) + θ Z (t-1), θ + φ

Results & Discussion

For each AA of all the proteins, 3D- Cartesian co-ordinates were transformed into 2D info. i.e. conformational states of AA and potential values were computed and used to build time-distance (index of AA) dependent statistical model as time series for forecasting purposes.

Due to non-representative dataset & inadequate info. about class, can’t say that for any particular class i) pred. accuracy ↑ or ↓ & ii) follows mostly ARMA process

Discussion

TS graphs opens new door in scientific visualization of proteins (no 3D str. info) i.e. specific AA can be visualized on line plot with its value proportional to frequency to occur into allowed regions of Ramachandran plot.

Potential value for each AA adds new feature of selection in machine learning techniques.

Order of AR model tells how current value linearly related to past p value

Intra-dependency of AA shown using models of TS e.g. AR(4),ARMA(1,3)

Found new way of looking at protein structure prediction.

Application of TS technique for predicting conformational states based on the conformational state potentials instead of secondary str. has been attempted.

Accuracy of prediction of conformational states for AA, using time series is higher than that for prediction of AA residues.

To increase accuracy for prediction, multivariate time series concept may be useful instead of uni-variate time series

Intra-fluctuations inside proteins, due to AA arrangement can be traced out by stationary & non-stationary groups

CONCLUSIONS

AR and MA order of TS models -as point of genetic information (distances) to predict evolutionary relationship between different proteins.

TS concept can be used to predict conformational states of missing residues in PDB data files

Hierarchical clustering/classification of TS of proteins -birth to new concept of time dependent clustering (pseudo-clustering) & pseudo-phylogeny.

Development of synthetic proteins to combat seasonal diseases & to tackle chemical warfare attacks.

TS fluctuations for specific class of proteins can be used as “Pattern” for data analysis and pattern-dependent classification of proteins
