“…To date, there are approximately 130 protein families as therapeutic drug targets, which usually include enzymes ( Liu et al, 2019a ; Meng et al, 2020 ; Xu et al, 2021a ; Wang et al, 2021 ), G protein-coupled receptors ( Ru et al, 2020 ), ion channels and transporters ( Han et al, 2019 ), nuclear hormone receptors, etc ( Li and Lai, 2007 ). These drug targets are of great significance for disease treatment and drug research and development ( Ding et al, 2019a ; Ding et al, 2019b ; Shi et al, 2019 ; Ding et al, 2020a ; Wang et al, 2020a ; Ding et al, 2020b ; Shang et al, 2021 ; Zhuang et al, 2021 ). However, the discovery and development of modern drugs is usually a time-consuming and laborious process.…”
