Membrane transport proteins and their substrate specificities play crucial roles in a variety of cellular functions. Identifying the substrate specificities of membrane transport proteins is closely related to the protein-target interaction predictio...
The substrates of a transporter are not only useful for inferring function of the transporter, but also important to discover compound-compound interaction and to reconstruct metabolic pathway. Though plenty of data has been accumulated with the deve...
INTRODUCTION: Drug-metabolizing enzymes (DMEs) and transporters (DTs) play integral roles in drug metabolism and drug-drug interactions (DDIs) which directly impact drug efficacy and safety. It is well-established that inhibition of DMEs and DTs ofte...
Protein transporters not only have essential functions in regulating the transport of endogenous substrates and remote communication between organs and organisms, but they also play a vital role in drug absorption, distribution, and excretion and are...
