The present study describes the synthesis of two new series of 3-hydroxy-N-(4-oxo-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazinan-3-yl)-8-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline-2-carboxamide derivatives (4a-j) and 3-((7-chloroquinolin-4-ylamino)methyl)-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazinan-4-one deriv...
In this study, we used structural and evolutionary based features to represent the sequences of gram-positive and gram-negative subcellular localizations. To do this, we proposed a normalization method to construct a normalize Position Specific Scori...
BACKGROUND: It has become a very important and full of challenge task to predict bacterial protein subcellular locations using computational methods. Although there exist a lot of prediction methods for bacterial proteins, the majority of these metho...
With the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) offer promising options for replacing traditional antibiotics to treat bacterial infections, but discovering and designing AMPs using traditional methods is a time-cons...

Various Gram-negative bacteria use secretion systems to secrete effector proteins that manipulate host biochemical pathways to their benefit. We and others have previously developed machine-learning algorithms to predict novel effectors. Specifically...
The overuse of antibiotics has led to emergence of antimicrobial resistance, and as a result, antibacterial peptides (ABPs) are receiving significant attention as an alternative. Identification of effective ABPs in lab from natural sources is a cost-...
