Can artificial intelligence help craft new medicines?

Drug Discovery World

The drug target for Penicillin is a protein that helps bacteria to synthesise its cell wall. One of the first and most basic requirements for a protein to be characterised as a drug target is to show that inhibiting its function prevents the disease. Salvarsan was soon overtaken by the Penicillin antibiotics.
