    Dnmso; an Ontology for Representing De Novo Sequencing Results From Tandem-Ms Data
    (PeerJ Inc., 2020) Takan, Savaş; Allmer, Jens
    For the identification and sequencing of proteins, mass spectrometry (MS) has become the tool of choice and, as such, drives proteomics. MS/MS spectra need to be assigned a peptide sequence for which two strategies exist. Either database search or de novo sequencing can be employed to establish peptide spectrum matches. For database search, mzIdentML is the current community standard for data representation. There is no community standard for representing de novo sequencing results, but we previously proposed the de novo markup language (DNML). At the moment, each de novo sequencing solution uses different data representation, complicating downstream data integration, which is crucial since ensemble predictions may be more useful than predictions of a single tool. We here propose the de novo MS Ontology (DNMSO), which can, for example, provide many-to-many mappings between spectra and peptide predictions. Additionally, an application programming interface (API) that supports any file operation necessary for de novo sequencing from spectra input to reading, writing, creating, of the DNMSO format, as well as conversion from many other file formats, has been implemented. This API removes all overhead from the production of de novo sequencing tools and allows developers to concentrate on algorithm development completely. We make the API and formal descriptions of the format freely available at https://github.com/savastakan/dnmso.

    Computational Mirnomics
    (Informationsmanagement in der Biotechnologie e.V. (IMBio e.V.), 2016) Allmer, Jens; Yousef, Malik
    The term MicroRNA or its contraction miRNA currently appears in 21,215 titles of abstracts, published between 1997 and now, available on Pubmed (2016-21-22:12:59 EET). 4,108 of these were published in 2016 alone which signifies the importance of miRNA-related research. MicroRNAs can be detected experimentally using various techniques like directional cloning of endogenous small RNAs but they are time consuming [1]. Additionally, it is necessary for the miRNA and its mRNA target(s) to be co-expressed to infer a functional relationship which is difficult, if not impossible, to achieve [2]. Since experimental approaches are facing such difficulties, they have been complemented by computational approaches [3] thereby defining the field of computational miRNomics.

    Computational Mirnomics - Integrative Approaches
    (Informationsmanagement in der Biotechnologie e.V. (IMBio e.V.), 2017) Hofestaedt, Ralf; Schreiber, Falk; Sommer, Bjoern; Allmer, Jens
    With this special issue on Computational miRNomics, we would like to start a new generation of publications in the Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics (JIB). From 2017 onwards, JIB will be published by De Gruyter which is one of the largest Open Access publishers in Germany with a long history. Established in 1918 with roots reaching even further back, the JIB editorial board decided that De Gruyter is the perfect partner to increase the level of professionalism for our publication processing and journal development.

    A Machine Learning Approach for Microrna Precursor Prediction in Retro-Transcribing Virus Genomes
    (Informationsmanagement in der Biotechnologie e.V. (IMBio e.V.), 2016) Saçar Demirci, Müşerref Duygu; Toprak, Mustafa; Allmer, Jens
    Identification of microRNA (miRNA) precursors has seen increased efforts in recent years. The difficulty in experimental detection of pre-miRNAs increased the usage of computational approaches. Most of these approaches rely on machine learning especially classification. In order to achieve successful classification, many parameters need to be considered such as data quality, choice of classifier settings, and feature selection. For the latter one, we developed a distributed genetic algorithm on HTCondor to perform feature selection. Moreover, we employed two widely used classification algorithms libSVM and random forest with different settings to analyze the influence on the overall classification performance. In this study we analyzed 5 human retro virus genomes; Human endogenous retrovirus K113, Hepatitis B virus (strain ayw), Human T lymphotropic virus 1, Human T lymphotropic virus 2, Human immunodeficiency virus 2, and Human immunodeficiency virus 1. We then predicted pre-miRNAs by using the information from known virus and human pre-miRNAs. Our results indicate that these viruses produce novel unknown miRNA precursors which warrant further experimental validation.
