TWN-FS method: A novel fragment screening method for drug discovery.

Fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) is a well-established and effective method for generating diverse and novel hits in drug design. Kinases are suitable targets for FBDD due to their well-defined structure. Water molecules contribute to structure and function of proteins and also influence the environment within the binding pocket.

ADis-QSAR: a machine learning model based on biological activity differences of compounds.

Drug candidates identified by the pharmaceutical industry typically have unique structural characteristics to ensure they interact strongly and specifically with their biological targets. Identifying these characteristics is a key challenge for developing new drugs, and quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) analysis has generally been used to perform this task. QSAR models with good predictive power improve the cost and time efficiencies invested in compound development.
