ABSTRACT
Dubet A., Potential drug target sites of HIV
identified by bioinformatics and intelligent machine learning techniques. Onl J Bioinform 19 (2):56-66, 2018. Author reviews recent In silico identification of drug target
sites for HIV by HIV-1 and HIV-2 structural and regulatory proteins, HIV
miRNA/RNAi and siRNA based drugs, subcellular and membrane protein sites
through bioinformatics and machine learning. Discovery includes assessment of
experimental and theoretical mechanistic and pharmacological studies. Potential
drug target sites identified by machine learning techniques of great accuracy
are discussed. In this review
differences between vpu and vpx
genes for potential drug targeting for HIV are discussed. Intelligent machine learning can be used to validate target
sites for HIV/AIDS to reduce attrition rates for later stages of drug
development. Molecular barcoding can be used
to identify mutant spectrum changes in infected hosts. However future drug and
vaccine studies need to be validated in animal models, as subtle differences
can have a significant impact on experimental outcome. Quasi-species theories
may soon move from the laboratory to control and treatment for HIV/AIDS. As new therapeutics are identified
or validated, databases are further improved.
