SAR and QSAR in environmental research
Dec 1, 2018
A series of antifolate compounds, i.e. 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-6,6-dimethyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine, or cycloguanil analogues, have shown effective inhibiting properties against Plasmodium falciparum dihydrofolate reductase (PfDHFR). In this work, the ...
Word models (natural language descriptions of molecular mechanisms) are a common currency in spoken and written communication in biomedicine but are of limited use in predicting the behavior of complex biological networks. We present an approach to b...
The readily available high throughput screening (HTS) data from the PubChem database provides an opportunity for mining of small molecules in a variety of biological systems using machine learning techniques. From the thousands of available molecular...
Human Flap endonuclease1 (FEN1) is an enzyme that is indispensable for DNA replication and repair processes and inhibition of its Flap cleavage activity results in increased cellular sensitivity to DNA damaging agents (cisplatin, temozolomide, MMS, e...

Accurate and robust classification models for describing and predicting the activity of 330 chemicals that are sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) and/or sphingosine kinase 2 (SphK2) inhibitors were derived. The classification models developed in this work ...
N-Myristoyltransferase (NMT) catalyzes the transfer of myristate to the amino-terminal glycine of a subset of proteins, a co-translational modification involved in trafficking substrate proteins to membrane locations, stabilization and protein-protei...
Neuraminidase (NA) is a critical enzyme in the life cycle of influenza virus, which is known as a successful paradigm in the design of anti-influenza agents. However, to date there are no classification models for the virtual screening of NA inhibito...
Inhibition of the neuraminidase is one of the most promising strategies for preventing influenza virus spreading. 479 neuraminidase inhibitors are collected for dataset 1 and 208 neuraminidase inhibitors for A/P/8/34 are collected for dataset 2. Usin...

β-secretase (BACE1) is an aspartyl protease, which is considered as a novel vital target in Alzheimer`s disease therapy. We collected a data set of 294 BACE1 inhibitors, and built six classification models to discriminate active and weakly active inh...
