Predicting Presynaptic and Postsynaptic Neurotoxins by Developing Feature Selection Technique
Presynaptic and postsynaptic neurotoxins are proteins which act at the presynaptic and postsynaptic membrane. Correctly predicting presynaptic and postsynaptic neurotoxins will provide important clues for drug-target discovery and drug design. In this study, we developed a theoretical method to discriminate presynaptic neurotoxins from postsynaptic neurotoxins. A strict and objective benchmark ...
متن کاملSodium channels in presynaptic nerve terminals. Regulation by neurotoxins
Regulation of Na+ channels by neurotoxins has been studied in pinched-off nerve endings (synaptosomes) from rat brain. Activation of Na+ channels by the steroid batrachotoxin and by the alkaloid veratridine resulted in an increase in the rate of influx of 22Na into the synaptosomes. In the presence of 145 mM Na+, these agents also depolarized the synaptosomes, as indicated by increased fluoresc...
متن کاملFeature Selection and Predicting CardioVascular Risk
No gold standard exists for assessing the risk of individual patients in cardiovascular medicine. The medical data used for such purposes is, itself, inconsistent over a history of patients at any one clinical site, and not always immediately useable. In this paper the clustering of data using Self Organizing Maps (SOM) is described. This method is an unsupervised neural network developed by Te...
متن کاملDeveloping a Filter-Wrapper Feature Selection Method and its Application in Dimension Reduction of Gen Expression
Nowadays, increasing the volume of data and the number of attributes in the dataset has reduced the accuracy of the learning algorithm and the computational complexity. A dimensionality reduction method is a feature selection method, which is done through filtering and wrapping. The wrapper methods are more accurate than filter ones but perform faster and have a less computational burden. With ...
متن کاملPostsynaptic Neuroligin1 regulates presynaptic maturation.
Presynaptic nerve terminals pass through distinct stages of maturation after their initial assembly. Here we show that the postsynaptic cell adhesion molecule Neuroligin1 regulates key steps of presynaptic maturation. Presynaptic terminals from Neuroligin1-knockout mice remain structurally and functionally immature with respect to active zone stability and synaptic vesicle pool size, as analyze...
