MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally. In animals, this regulation is achieved via base-pairing with partially complementary sequences on mainly 3' UTR region of messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Comp...
An essential post-translational modification, phosphorylation is intimately related with a wide range of biological activities. The advancement of effective computational methods for correctly recognizing phosphorylation sites is important for in-dep...
Sparse multiple canonical correlation network analysis (SmCCNet) is a machine learning technique for integrating omics data along with a variable of interest (e.g., phenotype of complex disease), and reconstructing multi-omics networks that are speci...
BACKGROUND: The rise of network pharmacology has led to the widespread use of network-based computational methods in predicting drug target interaction (DTI). However, existing DTI prediction models typically rely on a limited amount of data to extra...
Segmentation is required to quantify cellular structures in microscopic images. This typically requires their fluorescent labeling. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can detect these structures also in only transmitted light images. This eliminate...
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a single-stranded RNA virus, which mainly causes respiratory and enteric diseases and is responsible for the outbreak of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). Numerous studies have demonstr...
Host defense or antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for protecting host against microbial pathogens for example bacteria, virus, fungi, yeast. Defensins are the type of AMPs that act as potential therapeutic drug agent and perform ...
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play vital roles in transcription and translation. Identification of circRNA-RBP (RNA-binding protein) interaction sites has become a fundamental step in molecular and cell biology. Deep learning (DL)-based methods have been ...
Interleukin (IL)-13 has emerged as one of the recently identified cytokine. Since IL-13 causes the severity of COVID-19 and alters crucial biological processes, it is urgent to explore novel molecules or peptides capable of including IL-13. Computati...
