Genetic polymorphisms are mostly associated with inherited diseases, detecting and analyzing the biological significance of functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using wet laboratory experiments is an arduous task hence the computational ...
BACKGROUND: Protein secondary structure (PSS) is critical to further predict the tertiary structure, understand protein function and design drugs. However, experimental techniques of PSS are time consuming and expensive, and thus it's very urgent to ...
BACKGROUND: Traditional methods for drug discovery are time-consuming and expensive, so efforts are being made to repurpose existing drugs. To find new ways for drug repurposing, many computational approaches have been proposed to predict drug-target...
Quantitative evaluation of binding affinity changes upon mutations is crucial for protein engineering and drug design. Machine learning-based methods are gaining increasing momentum in this field. Due to the limited number of experimental data, using...
BACKGROUND: Families of related proteins and their different functions may be described systematically using common classifications and ontologies such as Pfam and GO (Gene Ontology), for example. However, many proteins consist of multiple domains, a...

Antioxidant proteins can be beneficial in disease prevention. More attention has been paid to the functionality of antioxidant proteins. Therefore, identifying antioxidant proteins is important for the study. In our work, we propose a computational m...
A DNA-binding protein (DNA-BP) is a protein that can bind and interact with a DNA. Identification of DNA-BPs using experimental methods is expensive as well as time consuming. As such, fast and accurate computational methods are sought for predicting...
BACKGROUND: The experience with running various types of classification on the CAMDA neuroblastoma dataset have led us to the conclusion that the results are not always obvious and may differ depending on type of analysis and selection of genes used ...
MOTIVATION: Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs) lack stable tertiary structure and they actively participate in performing various biological functions. These IDPs expose short binding regions called Molecular Recognition Features (MoRFs) that p...
Flavonoids exhibit a high affinity for the purified cytosolic NBD (C-terminal nucleotide-binding domain) of P-glycoprotein (P-gp). To explore the affinity of flavonoids for P-gp, quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models were develop...
