Predicting protein-ligand binding sites is an integral part of structural biology and drug design. A comprehensive understanding of these binding sites is essential for advancing drug innovation, elucidating mechanisms of biological function, and exp...
Cancer is a generic term for a group of disorders defined by uncontrolled cell growth and the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Gene and epigenetic alterations disrupt normal cellular control, leading to abnormal cell prolifer...

Enhancing virtual screening enrichment has become an urgent problem in computational chemistry, driven by increasingly large databases of commercially available compounds, without a commensurate drop in in vitro screening costs. Docking these large d...
Thymidylate kinase (TMK) is a pivotal enzyme in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), crucial for phosphorylating thymidine monophosphate (dTMP) to thymidine diphosphate (dTDP), thereby playing a critical role in DNA biosynthesis. Dysregulation or inhibi...
Artificial-intelligence and machine-learning (AI/ML) approaches to predicting T-cell receptor (TCR)-epitope specificity achieve high performance metrics on test datasets which include sequences that are also part of the training set but fail to gener...
Ligand binding site prediction is a crucial initial step in structure-based drug discovery. Although several methods have been proposed previously, including those using geometry based and machine learning techniques, their accuracy is considered to ...

The 5-Hydroxytryptamine (5HT)-2A receptor, a key target in psychoactive drug development, presents significant challenges in the design of selective compounds. Here, we describe the construction, evaluation and validation of two machine learning (ML)...
Predicting protein-DNA binding specificity is a challenging yet essential task for understanding gene regulation. Protein-DNA complexes usually exhibit binding to a selected DNA target site, whereas a protein binds, with varying degrees of binding sp...
