Prediction of continuous B‐cell epitopes in an antigen using recurrent neural network

Saha, Sudipto, Raghava, G. P. S.·2006·Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics

Abstract

B‐cell epitopes play a vital role in the development of peptide vaccines, in diagnosis of diseases, and also for allergy research. Experimental methods used for characterizing epitopes are time consuming and demand large resources. The availability of epitope prediction method(s) can rapidly aid experimenters in simplifying this problem. The standard feed‐forward (FNN) and recurrent neural network (RNN) have been used in this study for predicting B‐cell epitopes in an antigenic sequence. The networks have been trained and tested on a clean data set, which consists of 700 non‐redundant B‐cell epitopes obtained from Bcipep database and equal number of non‐epitopes obtained randomly from Swiss‐Prot database. The networks have been trained and tested at different input window length and hidden units. Maximum accuracy has been obtained using recurrent neural network (Jordan network) with a single hidden layer of 35 hidden units for window length of 16. The final network yields an overall prediction accuracy of 65.93% when tested by fivefold cross‐validation. The corresponding sensitivity, specificity, and positive prediction values are 67.14, 64.71, and 65.61%, respectively. It has been observed that RNN (JE) was more successful than FNN in the prediction of B‐cell epitopes. The length of the peptide is also important in the prediction of B‐cell epitopes from antigenic sequences. The webserver ABCpred is freely available at www.imtech.res.in/raghava/abcpred/.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
