Structural Analysis of Genomic and Proteomic Signatures Reveal Dynamic Expression of Intrinsically Disordered Regions in Breast Cancer and Tissue.

bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology | 2023

Structural features of proteins capture underlying information about protein evolution and function, which enhances the analysis of proteomic and transcriptomic data. Here we develop S tructural A nalysis of G ene and protein E xpression S ignatures (SAGES), a method that describes expression data using features calculated from sequence-based prediction methods and 3D structural models. We used SAGES, along with machine learning, to characterize tissues from healthy individuals and those with breast cancer. We analyzed gene expression data from 23 breast cancer patients and genetic mutation data from the COSMIC database as well as 17 breast tumor protein expression profiles. We identified prominent expression of intrinsically disordered regions in breast cancer proteins as well as relationships between drug perturbation signatures and breast cancer disease signatures. Our results suggest that SAGES is generally applicable to describe diverse biological phenomena including disease states and drug effects.

COSMIC - Catalogue Of Somatic Mutations In Cancer (tool)

RRID:SCR_002260

Database to store and display somatic mutation information and related details and contains information relating to human cancers. The mutation data and associated information is extracted from the primary literature. In order to provide a consistent view of the data a histology and tissue ontology has been created and all mutations are mapped to a single version of each gene. The data can be queried by tissue, histology or gene and displayed as a graph, as a table or exported in various formats.
Some key features of COSMIC are:
* Contains information on publications, samples and mutations. Includes samples which have been found to be negative for mutations during screening therefore enabling frequency data to be calculated for mutations in different genes in different cancer types.
* Samples entered include benign neoplasms and other benign proliferations, in situ and invasive tumours, recurrences, metastases and cancer cell lines.
