Predicting novel targets for the drug fluanisone by MOST with FDR control. a, scheme of integrating MOST with FDR control procedure. b, the structure of fluanisone. c, the distribution of p value of predicted targets, which was generated by searching fluanisone against 1,439 human targets via MOST. d, top 5 hits of target prediction for fluanisone. Two novel targets of fluanisone, adrenoceptor alpha 1B (ADRA1B) and adrenoceptor alpha 1D (ADRA1D), were characterized by reference (Keiser et al. [7]) but not CHEMBL database. The adjusted p values were calculated by Benjamini-Hochberg algorithm. e, the inference process of fluanisone novel targets by MOST. Fluanisone was found to be similar (Tc = 0.70) to compound CHEMBL8618, which potently acts on ADRA1B and ADRA1D. They were assigned small p values by MOST
