PyRBDome: a comprehensive computational platform for enhancing RNA-binding proteome data.

ABSTRACT: High-throughput proteomics approaches have revolutionised the identification of RNA-binding proteins (RBPome) and RNA-binding sequences (RBDome) across organisms. Yet, the extent of noise, including false positives, associated with these methodologies, is difficult to quantify as experimental approaches for validating the results are generally low throughput. To address this, we introduce pyRBDome, a pipeline for enhancing RNA-binding proteome data in silico. It aligns the experimental results with RNA-binding site (RBS) predictions from distinct machine-learning tools and integrates high-resolution structural data when available. Its statistical evaluation of RBDome data enables quick identification of likely genuine RNA-binders in experimental datasets. Furthermore, by leveraging the pyR
