The localization of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) is a frequently observed phenomenon and a crucial aspect of gene expression regulation. It is also a mechanism for targeting proteins to a specific cellular region. Moreover, prior research and studies have shown the significance of intracellular RNA positioning during embryonic and neural dendrite formation. Incorrect RNA localization, which can be caused by a variety of factors, such as mutations in trans-regulatory elements, has been linked to the development of certain neuromuscular diseases and cancer. In this study, we introduced NN-RNALoc, a neural network-based method for predicting the cellular location of mRNA using novel features extracted from mRNA sequence data and protein interaction patterns. In fact, we developed a distance-based subsequence profile for RNA sequence representation that is more memory and time-efficient than well-known k-mer sequence representation. Combining protein-protein interaction data, which is essential for numerous biological processes, with our novel distance-based subsequence profiles of mRNA sequences produces more accurate features. On two benchmark datasets, CeFra-Seq and RNALocate, the performance of NN-RNALoc is compared to powerful predictive models proposed in previous works (mRNALoc, RNATracker, mLoc-mRNA, DM3Loc, iLoc-mRNA, and EL-RMLocNet), and a ground neural (DNN5-mer) network. Compared to the previous methods, NN-RNALoc significantly reduces computation time and also outperforms them in terms of accuracy.
