Innovative target mining stratagems to navigate drug repurposing endeavours.

The conventional theory linking a single gene with a particular disease and a specific drug contributes to the dwindling success rates of traditional drug discovery. This requires a substantial shift focussing on contemporary drug design or drug repurposing, which entails linking multiple genes to diverse physiological or pathological pathways and drugs. Lately, drug repurposing, the art of discovering new/unlabelled indications for existing drugs or candidates in clinical trials, is gaining attention owing to its success rates.

Computational analysis of affinity dynamics between the variants of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (RBD) and human ACE-2 receptor.

The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 resulted in a significant worldwide health emergency known as the COVID-19 pandemic. This crisis has been marked by the widespread of various variants, with certain ones causing notable apprehension. In this study, we harnessed computational techniques to scrutinize these Variants of Concern (VOCs), including various Omicron subvariants.
