The metabolic pathway known as gluconeogenesis, which produces glucose from non-carbohydrate substrates, is essential for maintaining balanced blood sugar levels while fasting. It's extremely important to anticipate gluconeogenesis rates accurately to recognize metabolic disorders and create efficient treatment strategies. The implementation of deep learning and machine learning methods to forecast complex biological processes has been gaining popularity in recent years.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFInteractions of biological molecules in organisms are considered to be primary factors for the lifecycle of that organism. Various important biological functions are dependent on such interactions and among different kinds of interactions, the protein DNA interactions are very important for the processes of transcription, regulation of gene expression, DNA repairing and packaging. Thus, keeping the knowledge of such interactions and the sites of those interactions is necessary to study the mechanism of various biological processes.

Objective: Traditional approaches, such as mass spectrometry and site-directed mutagenesis, proved to be time-consuming and complicated.
Methodology: The present research focused on the identification of m1A sites within RNA sequences using novel feature development mechanisms.
BBPs have the potential to facilitate the delivery of drugs to the brain, opening up new avenues for the development of treatments targeting diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). The obstacle faced in central nervous system disorders stems from the formidable task of traversing the blood-brain barrier (BBB) for pharmaceutical agents. Nearly 98% of small molecule-based drugs and nearly 100% of large molecule-based drugs encounter difficulties in successfully penetrating the BBB.

Methods: Primary sequences were transformed into feature vectors using statistical and position-relative moment-based features. Varying machine learning algorithms were employed for classification.
Hormone-binding proteins (HBPs) are specific carrier proteins that bind to a given hormone. A soluble carrier hormone binding protein (HBP), which can interact non-covalently and specifically with growth hormone, modulates or inhibits hormone signaling. HBP is essential for the growth of life, despite still being poorly understood.

Researchers have paid close attention to the development of very effective green chemistry approaches for the production of metal nanoparticles (NPs). The primary goal is to create an environmentally sustainable technique for generating NPs.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFThroughout the past few decades, scientific agencies have paid a lot of attention to environmental issues such as acid rain, water poisoning, and global warming. In order to solve these environmental problems, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which are made up of metal ions and/or clusters attached to organic ligands, have shown some promise. With a focus on the usage of MOFs, this paper examines the most recent developments, difficulties, and potential future directions in the separation and storage of carbon compounds in buildings for a sustainable environment.

Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is a branch of AI that mainly focuses on developing systems that provide understandable and clear explanations for their decisions. In the context of cancer diagnoses on medical imaging, an XAI technology uses advanced image analysis methods like deep learning (DL) to make a diagnosis and analyze medical images, as well as provide a clear explanation for how it arrived at its diagnoses. This includes highlighting specific areas of the image that the system recognized as indicative of cancer while also providing data on the fundamental AI algorithm and decision-making process used.
