Integrative Bioinformatics Approaches Indicate a Particular Pattern of Some SARS-CoV-2 and Non-SARS-CoV-2 Proteins.

Abstract

Pattern recognition plays a critical role in integrative bioinformatics to determine the structural patterns of proteins of viruses such as SARS-CoV-2. This study identifies the pattern of SARS-CoV-2 proteins to depict the structure-function relationships of the protein alphabets of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19. The assembly enumeration algorithm, Anisotropic Network Model, Gaussian Network Model, Markovian Stochastic Model, and image comparison protein-like alphabets were used. The distance score was the lowest with 22 for "I" and highest with 40 for "9". For post-processing and decision, two protein alphabets "C" (PDB ID: 6XC3) and "S" (PDB ID: 7OYG) were evaluated to understand the structural, functional, and evolutionary relationships, and we found uniqueness in the functionality of proteins. Here, models were constructed using "SARS-CoV-2 proteins" (12 numbers) and "non-SARS-CoV-2 proteins" (14 numbers) to create two words, "SARS-CoV-2" and "COVID-19". Similarly, we developed two slogans: "Vaccinate the world against COVID-19" and "Say no to SARS-CoV-2", which were made with the proteins structure. It might generate vaccine-related interest to broad reader categories. Finally, the evolutionary process appears to enhance the protein structure smoothly to provide suitable functionality shaped by natural selection.
