PoSSuM v.3: A Major Expansion of the PoSSuM Database for Finding Similar Binding Sites of Proteins.

Information on structures of protein-ligand complexes, including comparisons of known and putative protein-ligand-binding pockets, is valuable for protein annotation and drug discovery and development. To facilitate biomedical and pharmaceutical research, we developed PoSSuM (https://possum.cbrc.

A novel corpus of molecular to higher-order events that facilitates the understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a severe and progressive chronic fibrosing interstitial lung disease with causes that have remained unclear to date. Development of effective treatments will require elucidation of the detailed pathogenetic mechanisms of IPF at both the molecular and cellular levels. With a biomedical corpus that includes IPF-related entities and events, text-mining systems can efficiently extract such mechanism-related information from huge amounts of literature on the disease.
