Abstract

MOTIVATION: Identifying the proteins that interact with drugs can reduce the cost and time of drug development. Existing computerized methods focus on integrating drug-related and protein-related data from multiple sources to predict candidate drug-target interactions (DTIs). However, multi-scale neighboring node sequences and various kinds of drug and protein similarities are neither fully explored nor considered in decision making.
