The Development of Target-Specific Machine Learning Models as Scoring Functions for Docking-Based Target Prediction.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
The identification of possible targets for a known bioactive compound is of the utmost importance for drug design and development. Molecular docking is one possible approach for in-silico protein target prediction, whereas a molecule is docked into s...

Machine Learning Identifies Chemical Characteristics That Promote Enzyme Catalysis.

Journal of the American Chemical Society
Despite tremendous progress in understanding and engineering enzymes, knowledge of how enzyme structures and their dynamics induce observed catalytic properties is incomplete, and capabilities to engineer enzymes fall far short of industrial needs. H...

PDRLGB: precise DNA-binding residue prediction using a light gradient boosting machine.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Identifying specific residues for protein-DNA interactions are of considerable importance to better recognize the binding mechanism of protein-DNA complexes. Despite the fact that many computational DNA-binding residue prediction approach...

Albumin binding, anticancer and antibacterial properties of synthesized zero valent iron nanoparticles.

International journal of nanomedicine
BACKGROUND: Nanoparticles (NPs) have been emerging as potential players in modern medicine with clinical applications ranging from therapeutic purposes to antimicrobial agents. However, before applications in medical agents, some in vitro studies sho...

Gene ontology improves template selection in comparative protein docking.

Proteins
Structural characterization of protein-protein interactions is essential for our ability to study life processes at the molecular level. Computational modeling of protein complexes (protein docking) is important as the source of their structure and a...

Rapid and specific detection of Salmonella infections using chemically modified nucleic acid probes.

Analytica chimica acta
Salmonella is a leading source of bacterial foodborne illness in humans, causing gastroenteritis outbreaks with bacteraemia occurrences that can lead to clinical complications and death. Eggs, poultry and pig products are considered as the main carri...

Practical Model Selection for Prospective Virtual Screening.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Virtual (computational) high-throughput screening provides a strategy for prioritizing compounds for experimental screens, but the choice of virtual screening algorithm depends on the data set and evaluation strategy. We consider a wide range of liga...

Predicting drug-target interactions using Lasso with random forest based on evolutionary information and chemical structure.

Genomics
The identification of drug-target interactions has great significance for pharmaceutical scientific research. Since traditional experimental methods identifying drug-target interactions is costly and time-consuming, the use of machine learning method...

Combined molecular dynamics and neural network method for predicting protein antifreeze activity.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
Antifreeze proteins (AFPs) are a diverse class of proteins that depress the kinetically observable freezing point of water. AFPs have been of scientific interest for decades, but the lack of an accurate model for predicting AFP activity has hindered ...

Thermodynamic integration network approach to ion transport through protein channels: Perspectives and limits.

Journal of computational chemistry
We present a molecular dynamics simulation study of alkali metal cation transport through the double-helical and the head-to-head conformers of the gramicidin ion channel. Our approach is based on a thermodynamic integration network, which consists o...
