| contents | The integration of knowledge graphs and graph machine learning (GML) in genomic data analysis offers several opportunities for understanding complex genetic relationships, especially at the RNA level. We present a comprehensive approach for leveraging these technologies to analyze genomic variants, specifically in the context of RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data from COVID-19 patient samples. The proposed method involves extracting variant-level genetic information, annotating the data with additional metadata using SnpEff, and converting the enriched Variant Call Format (VCF) files into Resource Description Framework (RDF) triples. The resulting knowledge graph is further enhanced with patient metadata and stored in a graph database, facilitating efficient querying and indexing. We utilize the Deep Graph Library (DGL) to perform graph machine learning tasks, including node classification with GraphSAGE and Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs). Our approach demonstrates significant utility using our proposed tool, VariantKG, in three key scenarios: enriching graphs with new VCF data, creating subgraphs based on user-defined features, and conducting graph machine learning for node classification. |
