TLDR
A deep neural network capable of predicting molecules with antibacterial activity is trained and a molecule from the Drug Repurposing Hub-halicin- is discovered that is structurally divergent from conventional antibiotics and displays bactericidal activity against a wide phylogenetic spectrum of pathogens.

WholeGraph: A Fast Graph Neural Network Training Framework with Multi-GPU Distributed Shared Memory Architecture

TL;DR: In this article , the authors present a fast training graph neural network framework, WholeGraph, based on a multi-GPU distributed shared memory architecture, which partitions the graph and corresponding node or edge features to multiple GPUs, eliminating the bottleneck of communication between CPU and GPUs during the training process.

An interpretable machine learning approach to identify mechanism of action of antibiotics

TL;DR: InterPred as discussed by the authors is an interpretable technique for predicting bioactivity of small molecules and their mechanism of action, which has the same accuracy as the state of the art in bioactivity prediction, and enables assigning chemical moieties that are responsible for bioactivity.

Neighbor2Seq: Deep Learning on Massive Graphs by Transforming Neighbors to Sequences

Meng Liu, +1 more
TL;DR: This work proposes the Neighbor2Seq to transform the hierarchical neighborhood of each node into a sequence that enables the subsequent mini-batch training for general deep learning operations, such as convolution and attention, that are designed for grid-like data and are shown to be powerful in various domains.

A Biologically Interpretable Graph Convolutional Network to Link Genetic Risk Pathways and Imaging Phenotypes of Disease

TL;DR: A novel deep neural network for whole-genome imaging-genetics that includes two functional MRI paradigms and gene scores derived from Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) data is proposed, and it is shown that the biomarkers identified by the model are reproducible and closely associated with deflcits in schizophrenia.

Moderated estimation of fold change and dispersion for RNA-seq data with DESeq2

TL;DR: This work presents DESeq2, a method for differential analysis of count data, using shrinkage estimation for dispersions and fold changes to improve stability and interpretability of estimates, which enables a more quantitative analysis focused on the strength rather than the mere presence of differential expression.

Fast and accurate short read alignment with Burrows–Wheeler transform

TL;DR: Burrows-Wheeler Alignment tool (BWA) is implemented, a new read alignment package that is based on backward search with Burrows–Wheeler Transform (BWT), to efficiently align short sequencing reads against a large reference sequence such as the human genome, allowing mismatches and gaps.

edgeR: a Bioconductor package for differential expression analysis of digital gene expression data.

TL;DR: EdgeR as mentioned in this paper is a Bioconductor software package for examining differential expression of replicated count data, which uses an overdispersed Poisson model to account for both biological and technical variability and empirical Bayes methods are used to moderate the degree of overdispersion across transcripts, improving the reliability of inference.

One-step inactivation of chromosomal genes in Escherichia coli K-12 using PCR products

TL;DR: A simple and highly efficient method to disrupt chromosomal genes in Escherichia coli in which PCR primers provide the homology to the targeted gene(s), which should be widely useful, especially in genome analysis of E. coli and other bacteria.

Extended-Connectivity Fingerprints

TL;DR: A description of their implementation has not previously been presented in the literature, and ECFPs can be very rapidly calculated and can represent an essentially infinite number of different molecular features.
