A common feature pharmacophore for FDA-approved drugs inhibiting the Ebola virus [v1; ref status: indexed, https://f1000r.es/4qh]
Sean Ekins, Joel S. Freundlich, Megan Coffee

These computational models may provide preliminary insights into the molecular features that are responsible for their activity against Ebola virus in vitro and in vivo and we propose that this hypothesis could be readily tested.”
