Identifying drug-target protein association pairs is a prerequisite and a crucial task in drug discovery and development. Numerous computational models, based on different assumptions and algorithms, have been proposed as an alternative to the labori...
CYP27B1, a cytochrome P450-containing hydroxylase enzyme, converts vitamin D precursor calcidiol (25-hydroxycholecalciferol) to its active form calcitriol (1α,25(OH)D). Tyrosine kinase inhibitor such as imatinib is reported to interfere with the acti...
Abelson kinase (c-Abl) is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase involved in several biological processes essential for cell differentiation, migration, proliferation, and survival. This enzyme's activation might be an alternative strategy for treating disea...
Nowadays, more and more attention has been attracted to develop selective PI3Kγ inhibitors, but the unique structural features of PI3Kγ protein make it a very big challenge. In the present study, a virtual screening strategy based on machine learning...
Metalloenzymes are 40% of all enzymes and can perform all seven classes of enzyme reactions. Because of the physicochemical similarities between the active sites of metalloenzymes and inactive metal binding sites, it is challenging to differentiate b...

SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 bind to the human ACE2 receptor in practically identical conformations, although several residues of the receptor-binding domain (RBD) differ between them. Herein, we have used molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, machine lear...
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been used to extract information from various datasets of different dimensions. This approach has led to accurate interpretations in several subfields of biological research, like pharmacogenomics, addressing...
