Machine-learning scoring functions for identifying native poses of ligands docked to known and novel proteins.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Molecular docking is a widely-employed method in structure-based drug design. An essential component of molecular docking programs is a scoring function (SF) that can be used to identify the most stable binding pose of a ligand, when boun...

Accurate in silico identification of protein succinylation sites using an iterative semi-supervised learning technique.

Journal of theoretical biology
As a widespread type of protein post-translational modifications (PTMs), succinylation plays an important role in regulating protein conformation, function and physicochemical properties. Compared with the labor-intensive and time-consuming experimen...

BgN-Score and BsN-Score: bagging and boosting based ensemble neural networks scoring functions for accurate binding affinity prediction of protein-ligand complexes.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Accurately predicting the binding affinities of large sets of protein-ligand complexes is a key challenge in computational biomolecular science, with applications in drug discovery, chemical biology, and structural biology. Since a scorin...

A Bayesian Optimization-Based Hybrid Deep Prediction Method for Zinc-Binding Protein Interaction Sites.
