A bioinformatics system for functional proteomics modelling

摘要

The invention develops models of functional proteomics. Simulation scenarios of protein pathway vectors and protein-protein interactions are modelled from limited information in protein databases. The system focuses on three integrated subsystems, including (1) a system to model protein-protein interactions using an evolvable Global Proteomic Model (GPM) of functional proteomics to ascertain healthy pathway operations, (2) a system to identify haplotypes customized for specific pathology using dysfunctional protein pathway simulations of the function of combinations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) so as to ascertain pathology mutation sources and (3) a pharmacoproteomic modelling system to develop, test and refine proposed drug solutions based on the molecular structure and topology of mutant protein(s) in order to manage individual pathologies. The system focuses on simulating the degenerative genetic disease categories of cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, immunodegenerative diseases and aging. The system reveals approaches to reverse engineer and test personalized medicines based upon dysfunctional proteomic pathology simulations.
