MCC950 closes the active conformation of NLRP3 to an inactive state.

TL;DR: MCC950, a small-molecule inhibitor of the NLRP3 inflammasome, inactivatesNLRP3, including hyperactive disease-linked mutations, by closing the ‘open’ conformation, thereby preventing conformational changes required for NLRP2 activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-Throughput parallel blind Virtual Screening using BINDSURF.

TL;DR: BINDSURF is an efficient and fast blind methodology for the determination of protein binding sites depending on the ligand, that uses the massively parallel architecture of GPUs for fast pre-screening of large ligand databases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural network and deep-learning algorithms used in QSAR studies: merits and drawbacks.

TL;DR: The advantages and disadvantages of the proposed NN algorithms, especially the innovative DL techniques used in ligand-based virtual screening (VS) are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Managing, analysing, and integrating big data in medical bioinformatics: open problems and future perspectives.

TL;DR: A clear awareness of present high performance computing (HPC) solutions in bioinformatics, Big Data analysis paradigms for computational biology, and the issues that are still open in the biomedical and healthcare fields represent the starting point to win this challenge.
Journal ArticleDOI

Automatic selection of molecular descriptors using random forest

TL;DR: This work examined a Random Forest (RF)-based approach to automatically select molecular descriptors of training data for ligands of kinases, nuclear hormone receptors, and other enzymes and outperforms classification results provided by Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Neural Networks (NN) approaches.
