Abstract Post-translational modifications (PTMs) play pivotal roles in regulating cellular signaling, fine-tuning protein function, and orchestrating complex biological processes. Despite their importance, the lack of comprehensive tools for studying PTMs from a pathway-centric perspective has limited our ability to understand how modulate pathways on molecular level. Here, we present PTMNavigator, tool integrated into ProteomicsDB platform that offers an interactive interface researchers overlay experimental PTM data with pathway diagrams. PTMNavigator provides ~3000 canonical manually curated databases, enabling users modify create custom diagrams tailored data. Additionally, automatically runs kinase enrichment algorithms whose results are directly visualization. This view intricate relationship between signaling pathways. We demonstrate utility by applying it two phosphoproteomics datasets, showing can enhance analysis, visualize drug treatments result discernable flow PTM-driven aid proposing extensions existing By enhancing understanding dynamics facilitating discovery PTM-pathway interactions, advances knowledge biology its implications health disease.

Abstract Motivation Knowledge graphs (KGs) are being adopted in industry, commerce and academia. Biomedical KG presents a challenge due to the complexity, size heterogeneity of underlying information. Results In this work, we present Scalable Precision Medicine Open Engine (SPOKE), biomedical connecting millions concepts via semantically meaningful relationships. SPOKE contains 27 million nodes 21 different types 53 edges 55 downloaded from 41 databases. The graph is built on framework 11 ontologies that maintain its structure, enable mappings facilitate navigation. weekly by python scripts which download each resource, check for integrity completeness, then create ‘parent table’ edges. Graph queries translated REST API users can submit searches directly an or graphical user interface. Conclusions/Significance: enables integration seemingly disparate information support precision medicine efforts. Availability implementation neighborhood explorer available at https://spoke.rbvi.ucsf.edu. Supplementary data Bioinformatics online.

In recent years, the role of bioinformatics and computational biology together with omics techniques transcriptomics has gained tremendous importance in biomedicine healthcare, particularly for identification biomarkers precision medicine drug discovery. Differential gene expression (DGE) analysis is one most used RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data analysis. This tool, which typically various RNA-seq processing applications, allows differentially expressed genes across two or more sample sets. Functional enrichment analyses can then be performed to annotate contextualize resulting lists. These studies provide valuable information about disease-causing biological processes help identifying molecular targets novel therapies. review focuses on differential pipelines commonly identify specific discuss advantages disadvantages these techniques.
