The introduction of a new drug to the commercial market follows a complex and long process that typically spans over several years and entails large monetary costs due to a high attrition rate. Because of this, there is an urgent need to improve this...
Chemical-induced hematotoxicity is an important concern in the drug discovery, since it can often be fatal when it happens. It is quite useful for us to give special attention to chemicals which can cause hematotoxicity. In the present study, we focu...
DGAT1 plays a crucial controlling role in triglyceride biosynthetic pathways, which makes it an attractive therapeutic target for obesity. Thus, development of DGAT1 inhibitors with novel chemical scaffolds is desired and important in the drug discov...
Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia, representing 60-70% of dementia cases. The enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) cleaves the ester bonds in acetylcholine and plays an important role in the termination of acetylcholine activity a...
The question of molecular similarity is core in cheminformatics and is usually assessed via a comparison based on vectors of properties or molecular fingerprints. We recently exploited variational autoencoders to embed 6M molecules in a chemical spa...

Simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES)-based deep learning models are slowly emerging as an important research topic in cheminformatics. In this study, we introduce SMILES pair encoding (SPE), a data-driven tokenization algorithm. SPE ...
The complexity of the chemical reactions occurring during white wine storage, such as oxidation turns the capacity of prediction and consequently the capacity to avoid it extremely difficult. This study proposes an untarget methodology based on machi...
Cysteinyl leukotrienes 1 (CysLT1) receptor is a promising drug target for rhinitis or other allergic diseases. In our study, we built classification models to predict bioactivities of CysLT1 receptor antagonists. We built a dataset with 503 CysLT1 re...
Virtual screening (VS) is a computational practice applied in drug discovery research. VS is popularly applied in a computer-based search for new lead molecules based on molecular similarity searching. In chemical databases similarity searching is us...
