ADME-AP: a database of ADME associated proteins
1Department of Computational Science, National University of Singapore, Blk SOC1, Level 7, 3 Science Drive 2, Singapore 117543.
Abstract:
Drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) often involve interaction of a drug with specific proteins. Knowledge about these ADME-associated proteins is important in facilitating the study of the molecular mechanism of disposition and individual response as well as therapeutic action of drugs. It is also useful in the development and testing of pharmacokinetics prediction tools. Several databases describing specific classes of ADME-associated proteins have appeared. A new database, ADME-associated proteins (ADME-AP), is introduced to provide comprehensive information about all classes of ADME-associated proteins described in the literature including physiological function of each protein, pharmacokinetic effect, ADME classification, direction and driving force of disposition, location and tissue distribution, substrates, synonyms, gene name and protein availability in other species. Cross-links to other databases are also provided to facilitate the access of information about the sequence, 3D structure, function, polymorphisms, genetic disorders, nomenclature, ligand binding properties and related literatures of each protein. ADME-AP currently contains entries for 321 proteins and 964 substrates.

Protein Networks
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...
Membrane Transporters
Transporters are mainly composed of alpha-helices, built from bundles of ten or more helices traversing the plasma membrane. The solute-binding sites are located midway, where some of the helices are broken or distorted, making space for the binding site through...
