Discovery of SARS-CoV-2 papain-like protease inhibitors through machine learning and molecular simulation approaches.

Drug discoveries & therapeutics
The papain-like protease (PLpro), a cysteine protease found in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), plays a crucial role in viral replication by cleaving the viral polyproteins and interfering with the host's innate immune re...

In-silico study of approved drugs as potential inhibitors against 3CLpro and other viral proteins of CoVID-19.

PloS one
The global pandemic, due to the emergence of COVID-19, has created a public health crisis. It has a huge morbidity rate that was never comprehended in the recent decades. Despite numerous efforts, potent antiviral drugs are lacking. Repurposing of dr...

Enhancing the understandings on SARS-CoV-2 main protease (M) mutants from molecular dynamics and machine learning.

International journal of biological macromolecules
While star drugs like Paxlovid have shown remarkable performance in combating SARS-CoV-2, we still face serious challenges such as viral mutants and resistance. In this study, we employ a computational framework combining molecular dynamics (MD) simu...

Machine Learning-Guided Screening and Molecular Docking for Proposing Naturally Derived Drug Candidates Against MERS-CoV 3CL Protease.

Applications of Machine Learning Approaches for the Discovery of SARS-CoV-2 PLpro Inhibitors.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
The global impact of SARS-CoV-2 highlights the need for treatments beyond vaccination, given the limited availability of effective medications. While Pfizer introduced , an FDA-approved antiviral targeting the SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro), this st...

F-CPI: A Multimodal Deep Learning Approach for Predicting Compound Bioactivity Changes Induced by Fluorine Substitution.

Journal of medicinal chemistry
Fluorine (F) substitution is a common method of drug discovery and development. However, there are no accurate approaches available for predicting the bioactivity changes after F-substitution, as the effect of substitution on the interactions between...

TDFFM: Transformer and Deep Forest Fusion Model for Predicting Coronavirus 3C-Like Protease Cleavage Sites.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
COVID-19, caused by the highly contagious SARS-CoV-2 virus, is distinguished by its positive-sense, single-stranded RNA genome. A thorough understanding of SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis is crucial for halting its proliferation. Notably, the 3C-like proteas...

Generative artificial intelligence performs rudimentary structural biology modeling.

Scientific reports
Natural language-based generative artificial intelligence (AI) has become increasingly prevalent in scientific research. Intriguingly, capabilities of generative pre-trained transformer (GPT) language models beyond the scope of natural language tasks...
