  4. Hidden Markov models • Observed sequence of symbols • Hidden sequence of underlying states • Transition probabilities govern transitions among states • Emission probabilities govern the likelihood of observing a symbol in a particular state

  5. Profile HMMs • Use scores rather than emission probabilities directly

  6. A PSSM as a simple HMM begin M1 Mi Mi+1 ML end … … With emission probabilities unique to each match state

  7. begin M1 Mi ML end … … But what about gaps? • Ignore them (BLOCKS database) OR • Model them • Insert states have background emission probabilities Ii

  8. Gap scores • For an insert of length k with background emission probabilities, we have affine gap scores

  9. Length distribution of inserts • Geometric distribution I aII aIM aMI

  10. Which columns are match states?

L. .H. K. • Options • Assign columns to be match states by eye • Heuristic i.e. no more than 50% gaps per column • Maximum a posteriori (MAP) model construction • O(L2) dynamic programming algorithm exists to find model that optimizes score on training data

  11. Two ways to handle deletions • Transitions between match states • Silent deletion states (no emission) begin M1 Mi ML end … … D2 D3 D1 begin M1 M2 M3 end

  12. Profile HMM

  13. Flanking states • Many sites in a sequence may be assigned to 'flanking' states (N, C, or J) • Transitions should force one or more match states to be traversed at least once

  14. Local or global alignment? • Are transitions allowed • From start to internal match? • From internal match to end? • Are there states that can emit sequences before and after the profile? • Do transitions allow the profile to be repeated? • In HMMs • Global/local behavior governed by model not algorithm • Behavior may differ w.r.t. the profile and the sequence

  15. Null model N S T

  16. Extreme value problems • How to convert Sbit to an expect value? • Since alignment is not truly local, theory used for BLAST does not hold here • Solutions (both available in HMMER) • Conservative approximation valid for any profile • Empirically fit extreme value distribution using simulated sequences • Must be done once for every profile HMM

  17. Why not always use full model? • The sum of probabilities is constrained to be one • Spreading probability among many paths decreases power to discriminate among them • You should always choose the most restrictive model (fewest transitions) consistent with your purpose

  18. Which algorithm to use? • Three choices • Viterbi: maximum likelihood path • Forward: sum of probabilities of all possible paths • Forward-backward: prob of each state at each pos • For database search • Query sequence against a database of profile HMMs • Profile HMM against a database of sequences? • For alignment • Adding new sequence(s) to an existing alignment

  19. Training a profile HMM • Weighting training sequences • We saw the same problem when scoring multiple alignments • Same approaches are used for profile HMMs • Estimating transition probabilities • Taken care of by MAP model construction • Estimating emission probabilities • We will assume the alignment is correct • Only issue is how to add pseudocounts

  20. Better pseudocounts • Laplace's Rule • Ignores background frequencies of residues • Background frequency pseudocounts

  21. Pseudocounts as Bayesian priors • Bayes' rule Likelihood Prior Posterior

  22. Dirichlet mixture pseudocounts • Background probabilities are not uniform throughout the protein • eg exposed loops (hydrophilic residues abundant) vs. buried core (small side chains abundant) • Different sets of pseudocount priors (Dirichlet distributions) for each environment • Pseudocounts for Ii are determined by a mixture of Dirichlet distributions fit to position i

  23. Evolutionary pseudocounts • Related to phylogenetic methods we will see later • Calculate probability of each residue having been the common ancestor of the residues in a column • Calculate probability of each residue as a descendent • Use these probabilities as priors with appropriate weighting • Requires use of a position-independent scoring matrix (eg PAM)

  24. Queries vs. subjects • Two directions of search are possible • Sequence query against database of profile HMMs • Profile HMM against a database of sequences • Bit scores will be the same regardless • But E-values will differ • Search space (ie number of subjects in database) can differ considerably • It is usually more sensitive to search a database of profile HMMs

  25. Interpro • Regular Expressions • PROSITE • PSSMs, other motifs • PROSITE, PRINTS, PRODOM • Profile HMMs • Pfam • SMART • TIGRFAMs • PIR SuperFamily • SUPERFAMILY

  26. Interpro v8

  27. Pfam • A profile HMM database • Based on Swissprot and TREMBL • Current version (v15) has 7503 families. • ~75% of all new protein sequences match an existing Pfam profile • Profiles constructed semi-automatically • New families identified • Seed alignment manually optimized • Profile HMM constructed • All matching sequences aligned to HMM

  28. HMMER • Used in construction of Pfam • Can build a profile (with MAP algorithm) • Can search a sequence against a profile and vice versa (i.e. with forward algorithm) • Can add new sequences to an alignment (via Viterbi) • Uses Plan 7 profiles • User sets the local/global behavior
