Allosteric molecules provide a powerful means to modulate protein function. However, the effect of such ligands on distal orthosteric sites cannot be easily described by classical docking methods. Here, we applied machine learning (ML) approaches to ...
Binding sites in proteins can be either specifically functional binding sites (active sites) that bind specific substrates with high affinity or regulatory binding sites (allosteric sites), that modulate the activity of functional binding sites throu...
Designing highly selective compounds to protein subtypes and developing allosteric modulators targeting them are critical considerations to both drug discovery and mechanism studies for cannabinoid receptors. It is challenging but in demand to have c...
Predicting drug-protein interactions (DPIs) for target proteins involved in dopamine pathways is a very important goal in medicinal chemistry. We can tackle this problem using Molecular Docking or Machine Learning (ML) models for one specific protein...

Thrombin is a key component for chemotherapeutic and antithrombotic therapy development. As the physiologic and pathologic roles of the light chain still remain vague, here, we continue previous efforts to understand the impacts of the disease-associ...
Deep learning has advanced the design of static protein structures, but the controlled conformational changes that are hallmarks of natural signaling proteins have remained inaccessible to de novo design. Here, we describe a general deep learning-gui...
Allosteric regulation, induced by perturbations at an allosteric site topographically distinct from the orthosteric site, is one of the most direct and efficient ways to fine-tune macromolecular function. The Allosteric Database (ASD; accessible onli...
Driver mutations can contribute to the initial processes of cancer, and their identification is crucial for understanding tumorigenesis as well as for molecular drug discovery and development. Allostery regulates protein function away from the functi...
