The main protease of SARS-CoV-2 is a critical target for the design and development of antiviral drugs. 2.5 M compounds were used in this study to train an LSTM generative network via transfer learning in order to identify the four best candidates ca...
The prerequisite of therapeutic drug design and discovery is to identify novel molecules and developing lead candidates with desired biophysical and biochemical properties. Deep generative models have demonstrated their ability to find such molecules...
Blocking the main replicating enzyme, 3 Chymotrypsin-like protease (3CL) is the most promising drug development strategy against the SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for the current COVID-19 pandemic. In the present work, 9101 drugs obtained from the dr...

Here, we report the implementation and application of a simple, structure-aware framework to generate target-specific screening libraries. Our approach combines advances in generative artificial intelligence (AI) with conventional molecular docking t...
The low efficacy of current antivirals in conjunction with the resistance of viruses against existing antiviral drugs has resulted in the demand for the development of novel antiviral agents. Antiviral peptides (AVPs) are those bioactive peptides hav...

Fast and accurate identification of inhibitors with potency against HCV NS5B polymerase is currently a challenging task. As conventional experimental methods is the gold standard method for the design and development of new HCV inhibitors, they often...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Several models have recently been developed to predict risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Our aims were to develop and validate an artificial intelligence-assisted prediction model of...
The current pandemic outbreak clearly indicated the urgent need for tools allowing fast predictions of bioactivity of a large number of compounds, either available or at least synthesizable. In the computational chemistry toolbox, several such tools ...
