Abstract

Since proteins have important tasks in all processes within the cell they are vital elements for all living organisms. They are significant in regulating most of the biological processes which occur in a cell. They are widely researched to comprehend roles of them and to assist drug design studies. In these tasks, they usually work by interacting with other proteins, not alone. Thus, predicting protein-protein interactions and protein protein interaction sites is an important problem in bioinformatics. There are a number of computational methods developed for this prediction task. DeepPPISP-XGB is one of these methods and produces promising predicting results. In this study, we proposed an optimization process in order to improve prediction results of this method. This optimization process produced 1.5% better AUROC value and 3.3% better AUPRC value compared to DeepPPISP-XGB method.
