Accurate Prediction of Epigenetic Multi-Targets with Graph Neural Network-Based Feature Extraction.

ABSTRACT: Epigenetics, referring to genetic modifications that change gene expression, but which are not encoded in DNA, has been shown to be related to oncology, with the potential to influence associated treatments. As such, epigenetic drugs comprise an important new field in cancer therapy; however, drug development is a high-cost and time-consuming procedure. Different epigenetic modifications, such as mutations in DNA methyltransferase and somatic mutations in core histone genes that lead to a global loss of the histone modifications, have innumerable relationships. In this article, we propose a graph neural network-based model for the extraction of molecular features, thus reducing the computational requirements. Through integration with a popular and efficient supervised learner, our model ac
