Multi-Channel Protein Voxelization To Predict Variant Pathogenicity Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

Assignee:
Illumina, Inc. - San Diego CA Illumina Cambridge Limited - Cambridge
International Classification:
G16B 40/20 G16B 15/20 G16B 30/00
Abstract:
A system includes at least a voxelizer, an alternative allele encoder, an evolutionary conservation encoder, and a convolutional neural network. The voxelizer accesses a three-dimensional structure of a reference amino acid sequence of a protein and fits a three-dimensional grid of voxels on atoms in the three-dimensional structure on an amino acid-basis to generate amino acid-wise distance channels. The alternative allele encoder encodes an alternative allele sequence to each voxel in the three-dimensional grid of voxels. The evolutionary conservation encoder encodes an evolutionary conservation sequence to each voxel in the three-dimensional grid of voxels. The convolutional neural network applies three-dimensional convolutions to a tensor that includes the amino acid-wise distance channels encoded with the alternative allele sequence and respective evolutionary conservation sequences and determines a pathogenicity of a variant nucleotide based at least in part on the tensor.
The technology disclosed relates to efficiently determining which atoms in a protein are nearest to voxels in a grid. The atoms have three-dimensional (3D) atom coordinates, and the voxels have 3D voxel coordinates. The technology disclosed generates an atom-to-voxels mapping that maps, to each of the atoms, a containing voxel selected based on matching 3D atom coordinates of a particular atom of the protein to the 3D voxel coordinates in the grid. The technology disclosed generates a voxel-to-atoms mapping that maps, to each of the voxels, a subset of the atoms. The subset of the atoms mapped to a particular voxel in the grid includes those atoms in the protein that are mapped to the particular voxel by the atom-to-voxels mapping. The technology disclosed includes using the voxel-to-atoms mapping to determine, for each of the voxels, a nearest atom in the protein.
