DDAP: docking domain affinity and biosynthetic pathway prediction tool for type I polyketide synthases.

ABSTRACT:

Summary

DDAP is a tool for predicting the biosynthetic pathways of the products of type I modular polyketide synthase (PKS) with the focus on providing a more accurate prediction of the ordering of proteins and substrates in the pathway. In this study, the module docking domain (DD) affinity prediction performance on a hold-out testing dataset reached 0.88 as measured by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC); the Mean Reciprocal Ranking (MRR) of pathway prediction reached 0.67. DDAP has advantages compared to previous informatics tools in several aspects: (i) it does not rely on large databases, making it a high efficiency tool, (ii) the predicted DD affinity is represented by a probability (0-1), which is more intuitive than raw scores, (iii) its p
