Title : Development of in Silico Methodologies to Predict the Toxicity of Proteins in Food and Feed Risk Assessment

Reference Number : 2021/S 095-248738

Contract Type : Services

Estimated Value : 200000.00 - EUR

Description : The target of the work is to explore in silico methodologies to predict protein toxicity, and to identify candidate approaches to be implemented as tools supporting food/feed risk assessment. The implementation of the identified methodology is not part of this call. In silico methodologies to consider can span from ‘traditional- sequence similarity analysis to artificial intelligence (e.g. machine learning, deep learning). Approaches should search for structural and functional homology of the protein of interest to toxic proteins; and/or for the presence in the protein itself of ‘toxic molecular signatures-, i.e. structural/functional properties relevant in the molecular initiating events leading to toxicity. The identified methodologies should allow to predict the potential toxicity of a protein of interest, and to infer the elicited type of toxicity, the toxicity mechanisms and the potential target tissue/s. A proposal for defining threshold criteria should be identified.
