Abstract:
Abstract Chemical similarity searching is a basic research tool that can be used to find small molecules which are similar in shape to known active molecules. Despite its popularity, the retrieval of local molecular features that are critical to functional activity related to target binding often fails. To overcome this limitation, we developed a novel machine learning-based chemical binding similarity score by using various evolutionary relationships of binding targets. The chemical similarity was defined by the probability of chemical compounds binding to identical targets. Comprehensive and

Abstract:
Prediction of RNA–RNA interaction is a key to elucidating possible functions of small non-coding RNAs, and a number of computational methods have been proposed to analyze interacting RNA secondary structures.

For this purpose, we propose bistaRNA, a novel method for predicting multiple binding sites of target RNAs. bistaRNA employs binding profiles that represent scores for hybridized structures, leading to reducing the computationa

The efficacy of therapeutics is dependent on a drug binding to its cognate target. Optimization of target engagement by drugs in cells is often challenging, because drug binding cannot be monitored inside cells.

This cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA) is based on the biophysical principle of ligand-induced thermal stabilization of target proteins. Using this assay, we validated drug binding for a set of important clinical targets and monitored processes of drug transport and activation, off

Abstract A critical property of many therapies is their selective binding to target populations. Exceptional specificity can arise from high-affinity binding to surface targets expressed exclusively on target cell types.

More complex binding strategies have been developed to overcome this limitation, including multi-specific and multivalent molecules, creating a combinatorial explosion of design possibilities.

Abstract:
Abstract Motivation It is a fundamental task to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) targets and accurately locate their target sites. Genome-scale experiments for miRNA target site detection are still costly. The prediction accuracies of existing computational algorithms and tools are often not up to the expectation due to a large number of false positives. One major obstacle to achieve a higher accuracy is the lack of knowledge of the target binding features of miRNAs. The published high-throughput experimental data provide an opportunity to analyze position-wise preference of miRNAs in terms of targ

Abstract:
The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase that functions via its discrete binding partners to form two multiprotein complexes, mTOR complex 1 and 2 (mTORC1 and mTORC2). Rapamycin-sensitive mTORC1, which regulates protein synthesis and cell growth, is tightly controlled by PI3K/Akt and is nutrient-/growth factor-sensitive. In the brain, mTORC1 is also sensitive to neurotransmitter signaling. mTORC2, which is modulated by growth factor signaling, is associated with ribosomes and is insensitive to rapamycin. mTOR regulates stem cell and cancer stem cell characteristi

Abstract:
Abstract RBFOX2 controls the splicing of a large number of transcripts implicated in cell differentiation and development. Parsing RNA-binding protein datasets, we uncover that RBFOX2 can interact with hnRNPC, hnRNPM and SRSF1 to regulate splicing of a broad range of splicing events using different sequence motifs and binding modes. Using immunoprecipitation, specific RBP knockdown, RNA-seq and splice-sensitive PCR, we show that RBFOX2 can target splice sites using three binding configurations: single, multiple or secondary modes. In the single binding mode RBFOX2 is recruited to its target sp

Abstract:
Computational methods have transformed target and drug discovery, significantly accelerating the identification of biological targets and lead compounds. Despite its limitations, in silico molecular docking represents a foundational tool. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations, employing accurate force fields, provide near-realistic insights into a compound’s behavior within a biological target. However, docking and MD predictions may be unreliable without precise knowledge of the target binding site. Through MD simulations, we investigated 100 co-crystal structures of biological targets complexe

Abstract:
Background:The JAK inhibitors (JAKi’s) tofacitinib and baricitinib are new alternatives for treating rheumatoid arthritis. Safety concerns associated with JAKi’s, such as the increased risk for thrombosis and viral infections, have emerged worldwide. The underlying explanatory mechanisms remain unknown, suggesting the elevated risk is likely due to underlying confounding or an off-target binding effect. Computational approaches can explore the potential for a small molecule drug to interact with previously unknown biological targets and identify potential safety-related concerns, and open door

Abstract:
The impact of ceftriaxone pharmacokinetic alterations on protein binding and PK/PD target attainment still remains unclear. We evaluated pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) target attainment of unbound ceftriaxone in critically ill patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Besides, we evaluated the accuracy of predicted vs. measured unbound ceftriaxone concentrations, and its impact on PK/PD target attainment. A prospective observational cohort study was carried out in adult patients admitted to the intensive care unit with severe CAP. Ceftriaxone 2 g q24h intermittent infus
