Discovery of antimicrobial peptides targeting Acinetobacter baumannii via a pre-trained and fine-tuned few-shot learning-based pipeline

ABSTRACT: Acinetobacter baumannii, a robust Gram-negative bacterium known for inducing nosocomial infections and displaying multidrug resistance, remains a formidable challenge to combat. The limited arsenal of antimicrobial peptides targeting this pathogen underscores the need for innovative strategies. Here, we report a pioneering few-shot learning-based pipeline to identify potent antimicrobial peptides targeting A. baumannii. This pipeline effectively scans through the entire libraries of hexapeptides, heptapeptides, and octapeptides, encompassing tens of billions of candidates, despite the extreme scarcity of available training data. Comprising classification, ranking, and regression modules as an integration, each module is trained using a few-shot learning strategy involving pre-training and multiple fine-tuning steps while incorporating similar and true data fine-tuning. This methodology mitigates the potential overfitting concerns due to the small size of the training samples and then enhances the predictive capability of the pipeline. The results highlight the robustness and versatility of the methodology, demonstrating its effectiveness in discovering AMPs against A. baumannii and C. albicans, while demonstrating low off-target toxicity and negligible susceptibility to drug resistance. Additionally, the EME7(7) exhibits efficacy in controlling A. baumannii infections within a mouse pneumonia model, notably without inducing kidney injury — a contrast to the observed effects of polymyxin B. This work provides a paradigm for addressing the challenges posed by limited data availability.

Accelerated knowledge discovery from omics data by optimal experimental design

Project description:How to design experiments that accelerate knowledge discovery on complex biological landscapes remains a tantalizing question. Here, we present OPEX, an optimal experimental design method to identify informative omics experiments for both experimental space exploration and model training. OPEX-guided exploration of  Escherichia coli's cross-behavior potential, when exposed to novel biocide and antibiotic combinations, led to accelerated knowledge discovery with predictive models that are more accurate while needing 44% fewer data to train. Selecting experiments favoring broader exploration followed by fine-tuning emerged as the optimal strategy. This led to the discovery of 29 cross-protection and 4 cross-vulnerability conditions, with further validation revealing the central role of chaperones, stress response proteins and transport pumps in cross-stress exposure. This work demonstrates how active learning can be used to automate omics data collection for training accurate predictive models, evidence-driven decision making and accelerated knowledge discovery in life sciences.

A long context RNA foundation model for predicting transcriptome architecture

Project description:Linking DNA sequence to genomic function remains one of the grand challenges in genetics and genomics. Here, we combine large-scale single-molecule transcriptome sequencing of diverse cancer cell lines with cutting-edge machine learning to build LoRNASH, an RNA foundation model that learns how the nucleotide sequence of unspliced pre-mRNA dictates transcriptome architecture—the relative abundances and molecular structures of mRNA isoforms. Owing to its use of the StripedHyena architecture, LoRNASH handles extremely long sequence inputs at base-pair resolution (~65 kilobase pairs), allowing for quantitative, zero-shot prediction of all aspects of transcriptome architecture, including isoform abundance, isoform structure, and the impact of DNA sequence variants on transcript structure and abundance. We anticipate that our public data release and the accompanying frontier model will accelerate many aspects of RNA biotechnology. More broadly, we envision the use of LoRNASH as a foundation for fine-tuning of any transcriptome-related downstream prediction task, including cell-type specific gene expression, splicing, and general RNA processing.

mice lung TMT labeling proteome

Project description:Acinetobacter baumannii is an important pathogen of nosocomial infection worldwide, which can primarily cause pneumonia, bloodstream infection, and urinary tract infection. The increasing drug resistance rate of A. baumannii and the slow development of new antibacterial drugs brought great challenges for clinical treatment. Host immunity is crucial to the defense of A. baumannii infection, and understanding the mechanisms of immune response can facilitate the development of new therapeutic strategies. To obtain the system-level changes of host proteome in immune response, we used TMT labeling quantitative proteomics to compare the proteome changes of lungs from A. baumannii infected mice with control mice six hours after infection. A total of 6218 proteins were identified in which 6172 could be quantified. With threshold p < 0.05 and fold change > 1.2, we found 120 differentially expressed proteins. Bioinformatics analysis showed that differentially expressed proteins after infection were associated with receptor recognition, NADPH oxidase (NOX) activation and antimicrobial peptides. These differentially expressed proteins were involved in the pathways including leukocyte transendothelial migration, phagocyte, neutrophil degranulation, and antimicrobial peptides. In conclusion, our study showed proteome changes in mouse lung tissue due to A. baumannii infection and suggested the important roles of NOX, neutrophils, and antimicrobial peptides in host response. Our results provide a potential list of proteins candidates for the further study of host-bacteria interaction in A. baumannii infection.

Next-Generation Antimicrobial Discovery through Bacterial Self-Screening of Surface-Displayed Peptide Libraries [MiSeq]

Project description:Peptides have great potential to combat antibiotic resistance. While many platforms can screen peptides for their ability to bind to target cells, there are virtually no platforms that directly assess the functionality of peptides. This limitation is exacerbated when identifying antimicrobial peptides, since the phenotype, death, selects against itself, and has caused a scientific bottleneck confining research to only a few naturally occurring classes of antimicrobial peptides. We have used this seeming dissonance to develop Surface Localized Antimicrobial displaY (SLAY); a platform that allows screening of unlimited numbers of peptides of any length, composition, and structure in a single tube for antimicrobial activity. Using SLAY, we screened ~800,000 random peptide sequences for antimicrobial function and identified thousands of active sequences doubling the number of known antimicrobial sequences. SLAY hits present with different potential mechanisms of peptide action and access to areas of antimicrobial physicochemical space beyond what nature has evolved.

The ‘PepSAVI-MS’ pipeline for natural product bioactive peptide discovery

Project description:The recent increase in extensively drug resistant bacterial pathogens and the associated increase of morbidity and mortality demonstrate the immediate need for new antibiotic backbones with novel mechanisms of action. Here, we report the development of the PepSAVI-MS pipeline for bioactive peptide discovery. This highly versatile platform employs bioinformatics, statistics, and mass spectrometry to identify bioactive peptide targets from complex biological samples. We validate the use of this platform through the successful identification of known bioactive peptides from a botanical species, Viola odorata. Using this pipeline, we have widened the known antimicrobial spectrum for V. odorata cyclotides, including antibacterial activity of cycloviolacin O2 against E. faecium and A. baumannii. We further demonstrate the broad applicability of the platform through the identification of novel anticancer activities for cycloviolacins by their cytotoxicity against ovarian, breast and prostate cancer cell lines.

Model-driven design of synthetic N-terminal coding sequences for fine-tuning gene expression in yeast and bacteria

Project description:N-terminal coding sequences (NCS) are key regulatory elements for fine-tuning gene expression during translation initiation, the rate-limiting step of translation. However, due to complex combinatory effects of NCS biophysical factors and endogenous regulation, designing NCS remains challenging. Herein, we implemented multi-view learning strategy for model-driven generation of synthetic NCS for Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Bacillus subtilis, which are model microorganisms widely used in the laboratory and industry.
