Predicting the oncogenic potential of a gene fusion transcript is an important and challenging task in the study of cancer development. To this date, the available approaches mostly rely on protein domain analysis to provide a probability score explaining the oncogenic potential of a gene fusion. In this paper, a Convolutional Neural Network model is proposed to discriminate gene fusions into oncogenic or non-oncogenic, exploiting only the protein sequence without protein domain information. Our proposed model obtained accuracy value close to 90% on a dataset of fused sequences.

Abstract

Predicting the oncogenic potential of a gene fusion transcript is an important and challenging task in the study of cancer development. To this date, the available approaches mostly rely on protein domain analysis to provide a probability score explaining the oncogenic potential of a gene fusion. In this paper, a Convolutional Neural Network model is proposed to discriminate gene fusions into oncogenic or non-oncogenic, exploiting only the protein sequence without protein domain information. Our proposed model obtained accuracy value close to 90% on a dataset of fused sequences.
