  1. IntAct A database of Molecular Interactions Janna Hastings and James Watson EBI Bioinformatics Roadshow ILRI, Nairobi (2-3 March 2011) UCT, Cape Town (7-8 March 2011)

  2. What are protein-protein interactions? What data are we dealing with ?

  3. Example technique: yeast two hybrid What data are we dealing with ?

  4. Why are we interested in Interactions ? As a means of precisely understanding a protein role inside a specific cell type Guilt by Association – it may be the only means of predicting a protein’s function As building blocks for Systems Biology What data are we dealing with ?

  5. The scope of IntAct data Nucleic acids Proteins Small compounds Transcriptomics What data are we dealing with ?

  6. IntAct goals & achievements • Define a standard for the representation and annotation of molecular interaction data • provide a public repository • populate the repository with experimental data from project partners and curated literature data • provide modular analysis tools • provide portable versions of the software to allow installation of local IntAct nodes. http://www.ebi.ac.uk/intact ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/intact 4200+ distinct publications, 228,000+ binary interactions, 68,000+ proteins imported from UniProt search & advanced search, hierarchView, pay-as-you-go, MiNe… Known installation: AstraZeneca, GSK, MERCK, MINT, Proteome Center of Shanghai

  7. Sanity Checks(nightly) reject Public web site . exp abstract annotate accept FTP site p2 I p1 IMEx check CVs Curation manual Mint DIP MatrixDB report report Super curator curator IntAct Curation “Lifecycle of an Interaction” Publication (full text) Master headline

  8. Public data • All data is manually curated by expert curators • Curation manual rigorously followed • All curated data is reviewed by a senior curator • All data is made available on FTP site: • (!) data updated every week • (!) format available: Data ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/intact

  9. Christian Kohler Interaction space • Realistically one publication per working day and curator • Only a fraction of all published interactions is captured in interaction databases • An end is not in sight, the interaction space is still vastly under-sampled Master headline

  10. Interacting domains Overlay of Ranges on sequence: A very detailed data model • Support for detailed featuresi.e. definition of interacting interface

  11. Controlled vocabularies • Why do we use them ? • e.g. far too many ways to write: yeast two hybrid, Y2H, 2H, two-hybrid, … • Full integration of PSI-MI ontology • Over 1,500 terms, fully defined and cross-referenced

  12. How to deal with Complexes • Some experimental protocol do generate complex data: Eg. Tandem affinity purification (TAP) • One may want to convert these complexes into sets of binary interactions, 2 algorithms are available:

  13. Data distribution: PSICQUIC • Proteomics Standards Initiative Common QUery InterfaCe. • Community effort to standardise the way to access and retrieve data from Molecular Interaction databases. • Widely implemented by independent interaction data resources. • Based on the PSI standard formats (PSI-MI XML and MITAB) • Not limited to protein-protein interactions, also e.g. • Drug-target interactions • Simplified pathway data • A registry listing resources implementing PSICQUIC • Documentation: http://psicquic.googlecode.com

  14. PSICQUIC: distributing data over multiple sources

  15. PSI-MI XML format • Community standard for Molecular Interactions • XML schema and detailed controlled vocabularies • Jointly developed by major data providers: BIND, CellZome, DIP, GSK, HPRD, Hybrigenics, IntAct, MINT, MIPS, Serono, U. Bielefeld, U. Bordeaux, U. Cambridge, and others • Version 1.0 published in February 2004The HUPO PSI Molecular Interaction Format - A community standard for the representation of protein interaction data.Henning Hermjakob et al, Nature Biotechnology 2004. • Version 2.5 published in October 2007Broadening the horizon - Level 2.5 of the HUPO-PSI format for molecular interactions.Samuel Kerrien et al., BMC Biology 2007.

  16. MIMIx • Experiments • Interaction detection method (eg. Yeast two hybrid) • Participant detection method (eg. Mass Spectrometry) • Host organism • Interactions • Interactors • Identifiers from public database • Species of origin • Biological/experimental roles (eg. enzyme,target / bait,prey) • Confidence

  17. IMEx: The International Molecular Exchange Consortium • Group of major public interaction data providers sharing curation effort: DIP, IntAct, MINT, MPact, MatrixDB, Molecular Connections, InnateDB, MPIDB and BioGRID • Independent molecular interaction resources • Common curation standards for detailed curation • Common data formats (PSI-MI XML, PSICQUIC) • Common accession number space • Coordinated & non-redundant curation • In production mode since February 2010 • Since 3/2009 supported by the European Commission under PSIMEx, contract number FP7-HEALTH-2007-223411, with additional partners Vital-IT, Nature, Wiley, BiaCore (GE), U. Maryland, CSIC, TU Munich, MIPS, SCBIT (Shanghai) www.imexconsortium.org

  20. IntAct: Search and results Other PSICQUIC services IMEx data Complex ? Interaction details Interactors UniProt Taxonomy PubMed Method (PSI-MI CV)

  21. IntAct: Search and results Export Custom columns Filters

  22. Exercise 1 • In the search panel, type the query: CDK8. How many binary interactions are returned? • Which species are present in the results? (hint – look at Browse by taxonomy) • How would you filter these results so that only experimentally determined pairwise interactions are displayed? • Type the query: “transcription factor”. What types of interactor does it find (hint: click on the Lists tag). In the search panel, type the query: chlorophyll. Click on “Change Columns Displayed” and deselect the two Aliases columns, select the First Author column, then click the Update button. What changes occur in the interactions table? Who is the first author for the “Photosystem I subunit VII-ps1a1” interaction?

  23. Interaction details

  24. Exercise 2 • In the search panel, type: ERK AND species:3702. Click on the details symbol for interaction 1. What is the host organism for this experiment? • Which journal was it published in, and in what year? • How many interactions in total does IntAct have from this publication? (hint – look to the right of the Publications section)

  25. The Browse tab

  26. Exercise 3 • In the search panel, type: Phosphopentokinase, click on the Browse tab, then click the By UniProt taxonomy link. How many interactions are there involving only Arabidopsis proteins? • Select the human interactions. Which interaction detection method is used for the manually curated entry? • What is the title of the publication for this entry? • Click on the Browse tab again, click Back to Browse Options. Click By Gene Ontology. Where do these interactions occur? (ie. which compartment)

  27. Advanced search: Fields Filtering options Add more filtering options

  28. Exercise 4 • In the search panel, type: starch. How many entries are returned? • Click on the “Show Advanced Fields” button to the right of the Quick Search box. • Select the field Organism from the Pulldown menu – type in 3702 as your organism, click Add and search. How many entries are returned? • Further refine the search by adding Detection method as two hybrid – does this make a difference in the number of interactions found?

  29. The List tab - Proteins

  30. List tab - Compounds

  31. Exercise 5 • In the search panel, type: mitosis and click on the Lists tab. • How many proteins are found? How many small compounds? • Click on the DASTY links for various proteins. Notice how it shows features such as mutation sites, post translational modifications and binding sites. • Return to the Lists tab. Click on the Compounds sub-tab. • Click on the ChEBI link for gdp. Is it's atomic mass below 500 kilodaltons?

  32. Viewing results in other resources

  33. Exercise 6 • Search for: GPCR and click on the Lists tag, then click the Domains button. You get an error – why is this? • Fix the cause of the error, and click the Domains button again. Which domain is prominant in GPCRs? • Click on the Pathways button – which resource does this take you to? Which pathways are overrepresented?

  34. Ontology search I

  35. Ontology search II

  36. Exercise 7 • Click on the Search tab and scroll down to the ontology section. Start to enter the word stamen slowly. What do you notice? • How many different stamen processes does IntAct recognize? • Which ontologies are supported by IntAct? • Which of these ontologies know something about stamen processes?
