The parasite species of genus causes Malaria, which remains a major global health problem due to parasite resistance to available Antimalarial drugs and increasing treatment costs. Consequently, computational prediction of new Antimalarial compounds...
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are becoming an essential drug in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus; however, some classes of these drugs exert side effects, including joint pain and pancreatitis. Studies suggest that these side eff...

Olfactory receptors (ORs) constitute the largest superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). ORs are involved in sensing odorants as well as in other ectopic roles in non-nasal tissues. Matching of an enormous number of the olfactory stimulat...
In addition to activity, successful biological drugs must exhibit a series of suitable developability properties, which depend on both protein sequence and buffer composition. In the context of this high-dimensional optimization problem, advanced alg...
This study was planned to in silico screening of ssDNA aptamer against Escherichia coli O157:H7 by combination of machine learning and the PseKNC approach. For this, firstly a total numbers of 47 validated ssDNA aptamers as well as 498 random DNA seq...

An outbreak of COVID-19 that began in late 2019 was caused by a novel coronavirus(SARS-CoV-2). It has become a global pandemic. As of June 9, 2020, it has infected nearly 7 million people and killed more than 400,000, but there is no specific drug. T...
Drug-induced cardiotoxicity and hepatotoxicity are major causes of drug attrition. To decrease late-stage drug attrition, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries need to establish biologically relevant models that use phenotypic screening to dete...
