More Than Just a Removal Service: Scavenger Receptors in Leukocyte Trafficking.

Frontiers in immunology
Scavenger receptors are a highly diverse superfamily of proteins which are grouped by their inherent ability to bind and internalize a wide array of structurally diverse ligands which can be either endogenous or exogenous in nature. Consequently, sca...

An overview of neural networks for drug discovery and the inputs used.

Expert opinion on drug discovery
: Artificial intelligence systems based on neural networks (NNs) find rules for drug discovery according to training molecules, but first, the molecules need to be represented in certain ways. Molecular descriptors and fingerprints have been used as ...

Learning protein binding affinity using privileged information.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Determining protein-protein interactions and their binding affinity are important in understanding cellular biological processes, discovery and design of novel therapeutics, protein engineering, and mutagenesis studies. Due to the time an...

Boosted feature selectors: a case study on prediction P-gp inhibitors and substrates.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Feature selection is commonly used as a preprocessing step to machine learning for improving learning performance, lowering computational complexity and facilitating model interpretation. This paper proposes the application of boosting feature select...

Protein Family-Specific Models Using Deep Neural Networks and Transfer Learning Improve Virtual Screening and Highlight the Need for More Data.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Machine learning has shown enormous potential for computer-aided drug discovery. Here we show how modern convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can be applied to structure-based virtual screening. We have coupled our densely connected CNN (DenseNet) wi...

Deep learning and virtual drug screening.

Future medicinal chemistry
Current drug development is still costly and slow given tremendous technological advancements in drug discovery and medicinal chemistry. Using machine learning (ML) to virtually screen compound libraries promises to fix this for generating drug leads...

The Rational Discovery of a Tau Aggregation Inhibitor.

Biochemistry
Intrinsically disordered proteins play vital roles in biology, and their dysfunction contributes to many major disease states. These proteins remain challenging targets for rational ligand discovery or drug design because they are highly dynamic and ...

ChemMedChem
The identification of compounds for dissecting biological functions and the development of novel drug molecules are central tasks that often require screening campaigns. However, the required architecture is cost- and time-intensive. Herein we descri...

Mathematical deep learning for pose and binding affinity prediction and ranking in D3R Grand Challenges.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Advanced mathematics, such as multiscale weighted colored subgraph and element specific persistent homology, and machine learning including deep neural networks were integrated to construct mathematical deep learning models for pose and binding affin...

Insight Analysis of Promiscuous Estrogen Receptor α-Ligand Binding by a Novel Machine Learning Scheme.

Chemical research in toxicology
Estrogen receptor α (ERα) plays a significant role in occurrence of breast cancer and may cause various adverse side-effects when ERα is an off-target protein. A theoretical model was derived to predict the binding affinity of ERα using the pharmacop...
