Soft matter elements undergoing programed, reversible shape change can contribute to fundamental advance in areas such as optics, medicine, microfluidics, and robotics. Crosslinked liquid crystalline polymers have demonstrated huge potential to imple...
This paper describes an analysis of the diversity and chemical toxicity assessment of three chemical libraries of compounds from African flora (the p-ANAPL, AfroMalariaDb, and Afro-HIV), respectively containing compounds exhibiting activities against...
Development of new antimicrobial agents is a good solution to overcome drug-resistance problems. From this perspective, new quinoxaline derivatives bearing various bioactive heterocyclic moieties (thiadiazoles, oxadiazoles, pyrazoles and thiazoles) w...
ent-16-Oxobeyeran-19-N-methylureido (NC-8) is a recently synthesized derivative of isosteviol that showed anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) activity by disturbing replication and gene expression of the HBV and by inhibiting the host toll-like receptor 2/n...
In this paper, novel cationic chitosan derivative possessing 1,2,3-triazolium and pyridinium groups was synthesized conveniently via cuprous-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) and methylation. FTIR, H NMR, and elemental analysis examined th...
Bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2) is known to promote osteogenesis. To find novel adjuvants to enhance the activity of BMP-2, the present study investigated the structure BMP-2-induced osteogenic activity of a water-soluble polysaccharide from the g...

We present a novel optimization approach to train a free-shape distance-dependent protein-ligand scoring function called Convex-PL. We do not impose any functional form of the scoring function. Instead, we decompose it into a polynomial basis and ded...
BACKGROUND: Deep learning is one of the most powerful machine learning methods that has achieved the state-of-the-art performance in many domains. Since deep learning was introduced to the field of bioinformatics in 2012, it has achieved success in a...
