We present results on the extent to which physics-based simulation (exemplified by FEP) and focused machine learning (exemplified by QuanSA) are complementary for ligand affinity prediction. For both methods, predictions of activity for LFA-1 inhibit...
Three-dimensional (3D) structures of protein complexes provide fundamental information to decipher biological processes at the molecular scale. The vast amount of experimentally and computationally resolved protein-protein interfaces (PPIs) offers th...
In this paper, we propose a simple descriptor called the ligand coordinate profile (LCP) for describing docking poses. The LCP descriptor is generated from the coordinates of the polar hydrogen and heavy atoms of the docked ligand. We hypothesize tha...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most detected cancer and the second foremost cause of cancer deaths in the world. Intervention targeting p53 provides potential therapeutic strategies, but thus far no p53-based therapy has been successfully trans...
The ongoing pandemic of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has posed a serious threat to global public health. Drug repurposing is a time-efficient approach to finding effective drugs against SARS-CoV-2 in this emergency. Here, we present a robust e...
PURPOSE: This study aimed to explore the underlying mechanisms of Shenyankangfu tablet (SYKFT) in the treatment of glomerulonephritis (GN) based on network pharmacology, machine learning, molecular docking, and experimental validation.
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...
In our previous studies, it was found that graphene oxide (GO) reduced the endocrine disruption of bisphenol A (BPA) in zebrafish embryo and larvae, but through different mechanisms. In this study, adult male zebrafish were selected to further unders...
The human ether-à-go-go-related gene (hERG) encodes the Kv11.1 voltage-gated potassium ion (K) channel that conducts the rapidly activating delayed rectifier current (I) in cardiomyocytes to regulate the repolarization process. Some drugs, as blocker...
BACKGROUND: Recently, machine learning-based ligand activity prediction methods have been greatly improved. However, if known active compounds of a target protein are unavailable, the machine learning-based method cannot be applied. In such cases, do...
