Noncovalent inhibitors of protein kinases have different modes of action. They bind to the active or inactive form of kinases, compete with ATP, stabilize inactive kinase conformations, or act through allosteric sites. Accordingly, kinase inhibitors ...

Longevity is a very important and interesting topic, and has been demonstrated to be related to longevity. We combined network pharmacology, machine learning, deep learning, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation to investigate potent lead drugs. Re...
The decoding of transcription factor (TF) binding signals in genomic DNA is a fundamental problem. Here we present a prediction model called BindSpace that learns to embed DNA sequences and TF labels into the same space. By training on binding data f...
BACKGROUND: Identification of functional non-coding variants and their mechanistic interpretation is a major challenge of modern genomics, especially for precision medicine. Transcription factor (TF) binding profiles and epigenomic landscapes in refe...

Transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) play an important role in gene expression regulation. Many computational methods for TFBS prediction need sufficient labeled data. However, many transcription factors (TFs) lack labeled data in cell types. W...
Binding sites in proteins can be either specifically functional binding sites (active sites) that bind specific substrates with high affinity or regulatory binding sites (allosteric sites), that modulate the activity of functional binding sites throu...

Breast cancer is a leading cancer type and one of the major health issues faced by women around the world. Some of its major risk factors include body mass index, hormone replacement therapy, family history and germline mutations. Of these risk facto...
