Is Mycobacterial InhA a Suitable Target for Rational Drug Design?

ChemMedChem, Accepted Article.
InhA, an NAD‐dependent enoyl‐acyl carrier protein reductase, is involved in the biosynthesis of mycolic acids, specific lipids to mycobacteria. InhA is the target of isoniazid, a first‐line anti‐tuberculosis drug used since the 1950s. Isoniazid is a prodrug that needs to be activated by the catalase‐peroxidase KatG.

New Pyridobenothiazolone Derivatives Display Nanomolar Pan‐Serotype Anti‐Dengue Virus Activity

ChemMedChem, EarlyView.
A ligand‐based strategy is employed, starting from hit compound 2, to develop the C‐2 modified pyridobenzothiazolone 19 as a pan‐serotype nanomolar DENV‐1‐4 inhibitor. Investigations of the mechanism reveal the peculiar ability to abolish the infectivity of virions in a second infection.

Computational Approaches for Disease Gene Identification [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Identifying disease genes from human genome is an important and fundamental problem in biomedical research. Despite many publications of machine learning methods applied to discover new disease genes, it still remains a challenge because of the pleiotropy of genes, the limited number of confirmed disease genes among whole genome and the genetic ...
