Sumario: | Protein S-nitrosylation is one of the most important post-translational modifications, a well-grounded understanding of S-nitrosylation is very significant since it plays a key role in a variety of biological processes. For an uncharacterized protein sequence, it is a very meaningful problem for both basic research and drug development when we can firstly identify whether it is a S-nitrosylation protein or not, and then predict the specific S-nitrosylation site(s). This work has proposed two models for identifying S-nitrosylation protein and its PTM sites. Firstly, three kinds of features are extracted from protein sequence: KNN scoring of functional domain annotation, PseAAC and bag-of-words based on the physical and chemical properties of amino acids. Secondly, the synthetic minority oversampling technique is used to balance the data sets, and some state-of-the-art classifiers and feature fusion strategies are performed on the balanced data sets. In the five-fold cross-validation for predicting S-nitrosylation proteins, the results of Accuracy (ACC), Matthew's correlation coefficient (MCC) and area under ROC curve (AUC) are 81.84%, 0.5178, 0.8635, respectively. Finally, a model for predicting S-nitrosylation sites has been constructed on the basis of tripeptide composition (TPC) and the composition of k-spaced amino acid pairs (CKSAAP). To eliminate redundant information and improve work efficiency, elastic nets are employed for feature selection. The five-fold cross-validation tests have indicated the promising success rates of the proposed model.
