Abstract
Drug-target association plays an important role in drug discovery, drug repositioning, drug synergy prediction, etc. Currently, a lot of drug-related databases, such as DrugBank and BindingDB, have emerged. However, these databases are separate, incomplete and non-uniform with different criteria. Here, we integrated eight drug-related databases; collected, filtered and supplemented drugs, target genes and experimentally validated (highly confident) associations and built a highly confident drug-target (HCDT: http://hainmu-biobigdata.com/hcdt) database. HCDT database includes 500 681 HCDT associations between 299 458 drugs and 5618 target genes. Compared to individual databases, HCDT database contains 1.1 to 254.2 times drugs, 1.8-5.5 times target genes and 1.4-27.7 times drug-target associations. It is normative, publicly available and easy for searching, browsing and downloading. Together with multi-omics data, it will be a good resource in analyzing the drug functional mechanism, mining drug-related biological pathways, predicting drug synergy, etc. Database URL: http://hainmu-biobigdata.com/hcdt.
