    miRcorrNetPro: Unraveling Algorithmic Insights Through Cross-Validation in Multi-Omics Integration for Comprehensive Data Analysis
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023-12-05) Ünlü Yazici, Miray; Yousef, Malik; Marron, J. S.; Bakir-Güngör, Burcu; Yazici, Miray Unlu
    High throughput -omics technologies facilitate the investigation of regulatory mechanisms of complex diseases. Along this line, scientists develop promising tools and methods to extend our understanding at the molecular and functional levels. To this end, miRcorrNet tool performs integrative analysis of MicroRNA (miRNA) and gene expression profiles via machine learning (ML) approach to identify significant miRNA groups and their associated target genes. In this study, we propose miRcorrNetPro tool, which extends miRcorrNet by tracking group scoring, ranking and other information through the cross-validation iterations. Heatmap visualizations enable deep novel insights into the collective behavior of clusters of groups in cellular signaling and hence facilitate detection of potential biomarkers for the disease under investigation. Although miRcorrNetPro is designed as a generic tool, here we present our findings and potential miRNA biomarkers for Breast Cancer (BRCA). The miRcorrNetPro tool and all other supplementary files are available at https://github.com/Miray-Unlu/miRcorrNetPro. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    NeRNA: A Negative Data Generation Framework for Machine Learning Applications of Noncoding RNAs
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023-06) Orhan, Mehmet Emin; Demirci, Yilmaz Mehmet; Demirci, Mueserref Duygu Sacar; Saçar Demirci, Müşerref Duygu
    Many supervised machine learning based noncoding RNA (ncRNA) analysis methods have been developed to classify and identify novel sequences. During such analysis, the positive learning datasets usually consist of known examples of ncRNAs and some of them might even have weak or strong experimental validation. On the contrary, there are neither databases listing the confirmed negative sequences for a specific ncRNA class nor standardized methodologies developed to generate high quality negative examples. To overcome this challenge, a novel negative data generation method, NeRNA (negative RNA), is developed in this work. NeRNA uses known examples of given ncRNA sequences and their calculated structures for octal representation to create negative sequences in a manner similar to frameshift mutations but without deletion or insertion. NeRNA is tested individually with four different ncRNA datasets including MicroRNA (miRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), and circular RNA (circRNA). Furthermore, a species-specific case analysis is per-formed to demonstrate and compare the performance of NeRNA for miRNA prediction. The results of 1000 fold cross-validation on Decision Tree, Naive Bayes and Random Forest classifiers, and deep learning algorithms such as Multilayer Perceptron, Convolutional Neural Network, and Simple feedforward Neural Networks indicate that models obtained by using NeRNA generated datasets, achieves substantially high prediction performance. NeRNA is released as an easy-to-use, updatable and modifiable KNIME workflow that can be downloaded with example datasets and required extensions. In particular, NeRNA is designed to be a powerful tool for RNA sequence data analysis.

    Nöromüsküler Hastalıkların Ortak MikroRNA ve Yolaklarının İn Siliko Yöntemlerle Belirlenmesi
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-04) Ünlü Yazici, Miray; Aksu-Menges, Evrim; Akkaya-Ulum, Yeliz Z.; Balcihayta, Burcu; Bakir-Güngör, Burcu
    Neuromuscular disorders (NMD) are a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by the loss of function of the peripheral nerves and muscles. However, there are no effective and widespread therapeutic approaches to prevent or delay the progression of these disease types. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) which cause significant changes in gene expression by binding to target messenger RNAs (mRNAs), are known to have an effect on disease mechanisms. In this study, by integrating different bioinformatics methods, we aim to find miRNAs, target genes and pathways related to a group of neuromuscular diseases. For this purpose, we determined 17 miRNAs that show significant expression changes between patient and healthy groups; predicted target genes of these miRNAs; and identified affected pathways using subnetwork discovery, functional enrichment based algorithms. In our study, we integrated different in-silico approaches that proceed in topdown manner or bottom-up manner. The identified candidate miRNAs, genes and pathways, which could help to explain neuromuscular disease development mechanisms, are now under investigation in wet-lab. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
