Abstract-Ebola virus disease is a highly fatal hemorrhagic disease. To date, there is no approved drug to cure Ebola virus disease. Thus there is still the need to search for an effective drug. This study used various data mining techniques to investigate the relationship of chemical and physical properties of chemical molecules towards their activities against Ebola virus. The results suggest that these properties contribute to their activities against Ebola virus. Thus they could be used together with bioinformatics and cheminformatics techniques to help speed up the drug discovery process of Ebola virus disease.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
