iDMer: an integrative and Mechanism-driven response system for identifying compound interventions for sudden virus outbreak

iDMer is an integrative and Mechanism-driven response system for addressing sudden virus outbreaks. The basic idea of iDMer is to identify compound interventions for any virus for which the genome is sequenced. It comprises 3 mechanism-driven compound identification modules, i.e. a virus-host interaction-oriented module, an autophagy-oriented module, and a cytokine release syndrome-oriented module. Further, as a one-stop integrative platform, iDMer incorporates compound toxicity evaluation and compound combination identification for virus treatment with clear mechanisms.
