MYOP/ToPS/SGEval: Um ambiente computacional para estudo sistemático de predição de genes
Keywords in Portuguese
Bioinformatica.
cadeia de Markov oculta generalizada
modelos probabilisticos
predicao ab initio de genes
Abstract in Portuguese
O desafio de encontrar corretamente genes eucarioticos codificadores de proteinas nas sequencias genomicas e um problema em aberto. Neste trabalho, implementamos uma plata- forma, com o objetivo de melhorar a forma com que preditores de genes sao implementados e avaliados. Tres novas ferramentas foram implementadas: ToPS (Toolkit of Probabilistic Models of Sequences) foi o primeiro arcabouco orientado a objetos que fornece ferramentas para implementacao, manipulacao, e combinacao de modelos probabilisticos para representar sequencias de simbolos; MYOP (Make Your Own Predictor) e um sistema que tem como objetivo facilitar a construcao de preditores de genes; e SGEval utiliza grafos de splicing para comparar diferente anotacoes com eventos de splicing alternativos. Utilizamos nossas ferramentas para o desenvolvimentos de preditores de genes em onze genomas distintos: A. thaliana, C. elegans, Z. mays, P. falciparum, D. melanogaster, D. rerio, M. musculus, R. norvegicus, O. sativa, G. max e H. sapiens. Com esse desenvolvimento, estabelecemos um protocolo para implementacao de novos preditores. Alem disso, utilizando a nossa plata- forma, desenvolvemos um fluxo de trabalho para predicao de genes no projeto do genoma da cana de acucar, que ja foi utilizado em 109 sequencias de BAC geradas pelo BIOEN (FAPESP Bioenergy Program).

Abstract in English
The challenge of correctly identify eukaryotic protein-coding genes in the genomic se- quences is an open problem. In this work, we implemented a plataform with the aim of improving the way that gene predictors are implemented and evaluated. ToPS (Toolkit of Probabilistic Models of Sequence) was the first object-oriented framework that provides tools for implementation, manipulation, and combination of probabilistic models that represent sequences of symbols. MYOP (Make Your Own Predictor) facilitates the construction of gene predictors. SGEval (Splicing Graph Evaluation) uses splicing graphs to compare dif- ferent annotations with alternative splicing events. We used our plataform to develop gene finders in eleven distinct genomes: A. thaliana, C. elegans, Z. mays, P. falciparum, D. me- lanogaster, D. rerio, M. musculus, R. norvegicus, O. sativa, G. max e H. sapiens. With this development, we established a protocol for implementing new gene predictors. In addi- tion, using our platform, we developed a pipeline to find genes in the 109 sugarcane BAC sequences produced by BIOEN (FAPESP Bioenergy Program).
