Protein Target Prediction
DrugCIPHER
For a query chemical, each protein in the PPI network (genome-wide) is assigned
three concordance scores based on the different regression models. The protein
with large concordance scores is hypothesized to be the target proteins.

21. Energy component methods
- based on the assumption that the free energy of
binding interaction can be decomposed into a sum
of individual contributions:
(e.g., LUDI,ChemScore, GOLD, AutoDock)
!

Knowledge-based scoring
functions
- using statistics for observed interatomic
contact frequencies and or distances in a
large database of structures
(e.g., PMF, DrugScore, SmoG, Bleep)

catalyzes the biosynthesis of lipoate, a
cofactor responsible for the activation of
key enzymes in the Mtb metabolic
pathway (Spalding et al. 2010)
Mtb has no known back-up mechanism
that can take over the role of LipB in its
metabolic machinery (Rawal et al. 2010)
