Protein expression levels are crucial for capturing the intricate dynamics of biological processes within cells. Recent advancements in protein sequencing technologies have enabled the simultaneous measurement of transcriptomics and proteomes.

To address those challenges, we introduce scPER2P, an end-to-end deep learning framework that translates single-cell RNA-seq data into proteome profiles. Our model includes single-cell language models and incorporates parameter-efficient fine-tuning techniques to facilitate proteome profile inference. Experimental results across multiple datasets reflect that scPER2P not only achieves high correlation coefficients and cosine similarities with true proteomic profiles but also maintains promising performance with significantly fewer parameters than the full fine-tuning methods.

摘要

Protein expression levels are crucial for capturing the intricate dynamics of biological processes within cells. Recent advancements in protein sequencing technologies have enabled the simultaneous measurement of transcriptomics and proteomes. However, it is still associated with significant challenges high-throughput sequencing errors, precise quantifications, and high-quality antibodies. To address those challenges, we introduce scPER2P, an end-to-end deep learning framework that translates single-cell RNA-seq data into proteome profiles. Our model includes single-cell language models and incorporates parameter-efficient fine-tuning techniques to facilitate proteome profile inference. Experimental results across multiple datasets reflect that scPER2P not only achieves high correlation coefficients and cosine similarities with true proteomic profiles but also maintains promising performance with significantly fewer parameters than the full fine-tuning methods. Additionally, cell type clustering results underscore the model’s capability to significantly improve the accuracy of cell type annotation tasks. Our approach offers a promising solution to enhance and complement proteome profiling in single-cell studies. Code and data are available at https://github.com/WangyuchenCS/scPER2P .
