title: In silico approach for predicting toxicity of peptides and protein. creator: Gupta, Sudheer creator: Kapoor, Pallavi creator: Chaudhary, Kumardeep creator: Gautam, Ankur creator: Kumar, Rahul creator: Raghava, G.P.S. subject: QR Microbiology description: Over the past few decades, scientific research has been focused on developing peptide/protein-based therapies to treat various diseases. With the several advantages over small molecules, including high specificity, high penetration, ease of manufacturing, peptides have emerged as promising therapeutic molecules against many diseases. However, one of the bottlenecks in peptide/protein-based therapy is their toxicity. Therefore, in the present study, we developed in silico models for predicting toxicity of peptides and proteins. publisher: Public Library of Science date: 2013-09-13 type: Article type: PeerReviewed relation: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0073957 identifier: Gupta, Sudheer and Kapoor, Pallavi and Chaudhary, Kumardeep and Gautam, Ankur and Kumar, Rahul and Raghava, G.P.S.
