GMean-a semi-supervised GRU and K-mean model for predicting the TF binding site.

The transcription factor binding site is a deoxyribonucleic acid sequence that binds to transcription factors. Transcription factors are proteins that regulate the transcription gene. Abnormal turnover of transcription factors can lead to uncontrolled cell growth. Therefore, discovering the relationships between transcription factors and deoxyribonucleic acid sequences is an important component of bioinformatics research. Numerous deep learning and machine learning language models have been developed to accomplish these tasks. Our goal in this work is to propose a GMean model for predicting unlabelled deoxyribonucleic acid sequences. The GMean model is a hybrid model with a combination of gated recurrent unit and K-mean clustering. The GMean model is developed in three phases. The labelled and unlabelled data are processed based on k-mers and tokenization. The labelled data is used for training. The unlabelled data are used for testing and prediction. The experimental data consists of deoxyribonucleic acid experimental of GM12878, K562 and HepG2. The experimental results show that GMean is feasible and effective in predicting deoxyribonucleic acid sequences, as the highest accuracy is 91.85% in predicting K562 and HepG2. This is followed by the prediction of the sequence between GM12878 and K562 with an accuracy of 89.13%. The lowest accuracy is the prediction of the sequence between HepG2 and GM12828, which is 88.80%.

Fighting Cancer around the World: A Framework for Action.

Tackling cancer is a major challenge right on the global level. Europe is only the tip of an iceberg of cancer around the world. Prosperous developed countries share the same problems besetting Europe-and the countries and regions with fewer resources and less propitious conditions are in many cases struggling often heroically against a growing tide of disease. This paper offers a view on these geographically wider, but essentially similar, challenges, and on the prospects for and barriers to better results in this ceaseless battle. A series of panels have been organized by the European Alliance for Personalised Medicine (EAPM) to identify different aspects of cancer care around the globe. There is significant diversity in key issues such as NGS, RWE, molecular diagnostics, and reimbursement in different regions. In all, it leads to disparities in access and diagnostics, patients' engagement, and efforts for a better understanding of cancer.
