ABSTRACT
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of RNA molecules with more than 200 nucleotides. A growing amount of evidence reveals that subcellular localization of lncRNAs can provide valuable insights into their biological functions. Existing computational methods for predicting lncRNA subcellular localization use k-mer features to encode lncRNA sequences. However, the sequence order information is lost by using only k-mer features. We proposed a deep learning framework, DeepLncLoc, to predict lncRNA subcellular localization. In DeepLncLoc, we introduced a new subsequence embedding method that keeps the order information of lncRNA sequences. The subsequence embedding method first divides a sequence into some consecutive subsequences and then extracts the patterns of each subsequence, last combines these patterns to obtain a complete representation of the lncRNA sequence. After that, a text convolutional neural network is employed to learn high-level features and perform the prediction task. Compared with traditional machine learning models, popular representation methods and existing predictors, DeepLncLoc achieved better performance, which shows that DeepLncLoc could effectively predict lncRNA subcellular localization. Our study not only presented a novel computational model for predicting lncRNA subcellular localization but also introduced a new subsequence embedding method which is expected to be applied in other sequence-based prediction tasks.
