RESUMO

SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs) emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we used unbiased systems approaches to study the host-selective forces driving VOC evolution. We discovered that VOCs evolved convergent strategies to remodel the host by modulating viral RNA and protein levels, altering viral and host protein phosphorylation, and rewiring virus-host protein-protein interactions. Integrative computational analyses revealed that although Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta ultimately converged to suppress interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), Omicron BA.1 did not. ISG suppression correlated with the expression of viral innate immune antagonist proteins, including Orf6, N, and Orf9b, which we mapped to specific mutations. Later Omicron subvariants BA.4 and BA.5 more potently suppressed innate immunity than early subvariant BA.1, which correlated with Orf6 levels, although muted in BA.4 by a mutation that disrupts the Orf6-nuclear pore interaction. Our findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 convergent evolution overcame human adaptive and innate immune barriers, laying the groundwork to tackle future pandemics.

RESUMO

MOTIVATION: Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) provide the skeleton for signal transduction in the cell. Current PPI measurement techniques do not provide information on their directionality which is critical for elucidating signaling pathways. To date, there are hundreds of thousands of known PPIs in public databases, yet only a small fraction of them have an assigned direction. This information gap calls for computational approaches for inferring the directionality of PPIs, aka network orientation. RESULTS: In this work, we propose a novel deep learning approach for PPI network orientation. Our method first generates a set of proximity scores between a protein interaction and sets of cause and effect proteins using a network propagation procedure. Each of these score sets is fed, one at a time, to a deep set encoder whose outputs are used as features for predicting the interaction's orientation. On a comprehensive dataset of oriented PPIs taken from five different sources, we achieve an area under the precision-recall curve of 0.89-0.92, outperforming previous methods. We further demonstrate the utility of the oriented network in prioritizing cancer driver genes and disease genes. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: D'or is implemented in Python and is publicly available at https://github.com/pirakd/DeepOrienter.
