A Survey on the Computational Approaches to Identify Drug Targets in the Postgenomic Era

Figure 3

A schematic view of identifying drug-target interactions based on drug effect profiles. (a) Identify drug-target interaction based on therapy information by assuming that drugs with similar therapy may target same protein(s). (b) Predict drug targets based on side effects supposing that drugs with similar side effect have common target(s).
