Abstract
Characterizing the kinome selectivity profiles of kinase inhibitors is essential in the early stages of novel small-molecule drug discovery. This characterization is critical for interpreting potential adverse events caused by off-target polypharmacology effects and provides unique pharmacological insights for drug repurposing development of existing kinase inhibitor drugs. However, experimental profiling of whole kinome selectivity is still time-consuming and resource-demanding. Here, we report a deep learning classification model using an in-house built data set of inhibitors against 191 well-representative kinases constructed based on a novel strategy by systematically cleaning and integrating six public data sets. This model, a multitask deep neural network, predicts the kinome selectivity profiles of compounds with novel structures. The model demonstrates excellent predictive performance, with auROC, prc-AUC, Accuracy, and Binary_cross_entropy of 0.95, 0.92, 0.90, and 0.37, respectively. It also performs well in a priori testing for inhibitors targeting different categories of proteins from internal compound collections, significantly improving over similar models on data sets from practical application scenarios. Integrated to subsequent machine learning-enhanced virtual screening workflow, novel CDK2 kinase inhibitors with potent kinase inhibitory activity and excellent kinome selectivity profiles are successfully identified. Additionally, we developed a free online web server, KinomePro-DL, to predict the kinome selectivity profiles and kinome-wide polypharmacology effects of small molecules (available on kinomepro-dl.pharmablock.com). Uniquely, our model allows users to quickly fine-tune it with their own training data sets, enhancing both prediction accuracy and robustness.
