Machine Learning Prediction of Amino Acid Patterns in Protein N-myristoylation

DOI Open Access

Description

Protein N-myristoylation is the lipid modification in which the 14-carbon saturated fatty acid binds covalently to N-terminal of virus-based and eukaryotic protein. In this study, we suggest an approach to predict the pattern of N-myristoylation signal using the machine learning system BONSAI. BONSAI finds rules in combination of an alphabet indexings and decision trees. Computational experiments with BONSAI classified amino acid residues depending on effect for N-myristoylation and found rules of the alphabet indexing. In addition, BONSAI suggested new requirements for the position of an amino acid in N-myristoylation signal.
