MolPredictX: Online Biological Activity Predictions by Machine Learning Models.

Here we report the development of MolPredictX, an innovate and freely accessible web interface for biological activity predictions of query molecules. MolPredictX utilizes in-house QSAR models to provide 27 qualitative predictions (active or inactive), and quantitative probabilities for bioactivity against parasitic (Trypanosoma and Leishmania), viral (Dengue, Sars-CoV and Hepatitis C), pathogenic yeast (Candida albicans), bacterial (Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli), and Alzheimer disease enzymes. In this article, we introduce the methodology and usability of this webtool, highlighting its potential role in the development of new drugs against a variety of diseases. MolPredictX is undergoing continuous development and is freely available at https://www.molpredictx.ufpb.br/.
