Drug-target affinity prediction is a fundamental task in the field of drug discovery. Extracting and integrating structural information from proteins effectively is crucial to enhance the accuracy and generalization of prediction, which remains a substantial challenge. This paper proposes a pocket-based multimodal deep learning model named PocketDTA for drug-target affinity prediction, based on the principle of "structure determines function".

Traditionally, pocket detection and drug-target affinity prediction have been treated as separate aspects of drug-target interaction, with few methods combining these tasks within a unified deep learning system to accelerate drug development. In this study, we propose EMPDTA, an end-to-end framework that integrates protein pocket prediction and drug-target affinity prediction to provide a comprehensive understanding of drug-target interactions.

Computational drug repurposing can quickly screen out the most likely associations from large biological databases to achieve effective drug repurposing. However, building a comprehensive model that integrates drugs, proteins, and diseases for drug repurposing remains challenging.

Accurate prediction of drug-drug interaction (DDI) events can help clinicians make effective decisions and establish appropriate therapy programs. However, there exist two issues worthy of further consideration.

Early detection of adverse drug interactions can be essential in preventing medical errors and reducing healthcare costs. Many computational methods already predict interactions between small molecule drugs (SMDs).
