Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of enzyme activity prediction, and in particular to a method for predicting glycosidase mutations by improving amino acid and RMSD features and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Glycosyltransferases catalyze the transfer of sugar moieties from donors (such as UDP-sugar) to acceptor molecules, generating a diverse array of glycosylated products. In recent years, optimizing their function through mutation has become a hot topic in enzyme engineering. However, the activity of glycosyltransferases is influenced by multiple factors, making predicting the effects of mutations complex. While effective, experimental screening methods are costly and time-consuming, making them unsuitable for large-scale application. To address this issue, researchers have proposed a robust QSAR local model construction method, as described in Chinese patent CN115527619A. This method utilizes support vector machine regression and particle swarm optimization algorithms to establish robust and reliable local models, which are then combined into a consistent model to improve predictive performance. However, existing machine learning-based enzyme mutation prediction methods still face challenges: feature construction is incomplete, focusing primarily on a single dimension; and insufficient analysis of differences between mutants and wild-type results fails to fully reveal the specific effects of mutations on enzyme activity.

[0046] is a bias term used to adjust the predicted baseline value.

[0047] This technical solution quantifies the degree to which the characteristics of each amino acid in the enzyme (including polarity, hydrophobicity, etc.) affect the change in enzyme activity by calculating the amino acid contribution score. The score calculation formula involves the number of amino acids, the number of features, the feature value, the feature weight, and the bias term.

[0066] The number of positive samples is ;

[0067] The number of negative samples is ;

[0068] The goal of oversampling is to increase the number of positive samples so that the number of samples in the two categories is balanced:

[0076] This technical solution improves the glycosidase mutation prediction method by adopting amino acid and RMSD features. In the initial stage, the physicochemical property data of a single amino acid is selected, and the number of features is gradually increased to form a complex feature set. These feature sets are then input into the MutShift prediction model to predict the enzymatic activity of glycosidases.

[0165] Figure 4 Demonstrates the structured process of QSAR analysis of chemical activity; the core is to characterize electron distribution, including polarity, acidity and basicity, and aromaticity; analyzes the effect of steric hindrance on molecular weight and volume, considers H-bond formation ability and emphasizes acceptor and donor functions; associates 255 mutants with biological offsets, integrates them into an integrated system, and improves the ability to predict the biological activity of chemicals.

[0166] The source and generation process of the feature set are based on the rational design of the protein sequence and structure of glycosidase, and are generated by combining the molecular physical and chemical properties and data-driven analysis. The feature combination generation follows a systematic screening method, combining multiple feature sets according to rules to cover different physical and chemical properties; a single feature is selected in the initial stage, and gradually increased to form a complex set; recursive feature elimination, correlation analysis, etc. are used to sort the importance of features and create new combinations. Model evaluation and screening The feature set is input into the graph convolutional network to predict enzyme activity. The optimal feature combination is selected based on the prediction accuracy and the accuracy is recorded to evaluate its effectiveness, such as Figure 5 shown.

[0167] The best feature combination was feature set 240_6 (accuracy: 0.72). Key findings: Features such as hydrophobicity, molecular weight, and aromaticity significantly contribute to prediction accuracy, while excessive features lead to decreased performance (see Table 1 for details).

[0169]

[0170] Data source: Multiple glycosidic transferase datasets, including activity change data measured by different experimental methods.

[0171] Practical Application: To validate the model's accuracy in predicting glycosidic transferases, we used different mutants of the SUSY sucrose synthase enzyme. The letters in the table below represent the amino acid sequence at the mutation site. For example, V159T represents a valine-to-threonine mutation at position 159. The results show that MutShift accurately predicts the activity of all five SUSY sucrose synthase mutants, demonstrating the model's effectiveness. See Table 2 for details.
