Whole proteome mapping of compound-protein interactions.

ABSTRACT: Off-target binding is one of the primary causes of toxic side effects of drugs in clinical development, resulting in failures of clinical trials. While off-target drug binding is a known phenomenon, experimental identification of the undesired protein binders can be prohibitively expensive due to the large pool of possible biological targets. Here, we propose a new strategy combining chemical similarity principle and deep learning to enable proteome-wide mapping of compound-protein interactions. We have developed a pipeline to identify the targets of bioactive molecules by matching them with chemically similar annotated "bait" compounds and ranking them with deep learning. We have constructed a user-friendly web server for drug-target identification based on chemical similarity (DRIFT) to
