用化学反应方程式提升酶底物预测,通过超图建模复杂反应关系。

Improving Enzyme Prediction with Chemical Reaction Equations by Hypergraph-Enhanced Knowledge Graph Embeddings

  • 将反应式转为(底物,酶,产物)三元组构建知识图谱
  • 超图变换器捕捉多底物/多产物间的复杂关联,准确率提升88%
  • 适合代谢工程、药物设计等需精准酶预测的研究者

酶-底物相互作用预测是生物化学与代谢工程中的核心问题。现有方法依赖专家标注的酶-底物配对数据库,但此类数据稀疏且维护成本高,严重限制了模型对未见相互作用的泛化能力。本文利用领域数据库中更易获取、数据更密集的化学反应方程式,将其表示为(底物, 酶, 产物)三元组构成知识图谱,借助知识图谱嵌入(KGE)进行图补全以推断缺失配对。针对多个底物和产物共存于同一反应的复杂关系,提出基于超图增强的知识图谱嵌入模型Hyper-Enz,融合超图变换器与KGE,学习包含多成分的超边表示。同时引入多专家机制,结合模型与反应方程指导学习。实验表明,平均酶检索准确率相对传统模型提升88%,配对级预测性能提高30%,验证了该方法的有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Predicting enzyme-substrate interactions has long been a fundamental problem in biochemistry and metabolic engineering. While existing methods could leverage databases of expert-curated enzyme-substrate pairs for models to learn from known pair interactions, the databases are often sparse, i.e., there are only limited and incomplete examples of such pairs, and also labor-intensive to maintain. This lack of sufficient training data significantly hinders the ability of traditional enzyme prediction models to generalize to unseen interactions. In this work, we try to exploit chemical reaction equations from domain-specific databases, given their easier accessibility and denser, more abundant data. However, interactions of multiple compounds, e.g., educts and products, with the same enzymes create complex relational data patterns that traditional models cannot easily capture. To tackle that, we represent chemical reaction equations as triples of (educt, enzyme, product) within a knowledge graph, such that we can take advantage of knowledge graph embedding (KGE) to infer missing enzyme-substrate pairs for graph completion. Particularly, in order to capture intricate relationships among compounds, we propose our knowledge-enhanced hypergraph model for enzyme prediction, i.e., Hyper-Enz, which integrates a hypergraph transformer with a KGE model to learn representations of the hyper-edges that involve multiple educts and products. Also, a multi-expert paradigm is introduced to guide the learning of enzyme-substrate interactions with both the proposed model and chemical reaction equations. Experimental results show a significant improvement, with up to a 88% relative improvement in average enzyme retrieval accuracy and 30% improvement in pair-level prediction compared to traditional models, demonstrating the effectiveness of our approach.
