Edge-enhanced interaction graph network for protein-ligand binding affinity prediction.

PloS one
Protein-ligand interactions are crucial in drug discovery. Accurately predicting protein-ligand binding affinity is essential for screening potential drugs. Graph neural networks have proven highly effective in modeling spatial relationships and thre...

Virtual reality in drug design: Benefits, applications and industrial perspectives.

Current opinion in structural biology
Virtual reality (VR) is a tool which has transformative potential in domains which involve the visualization of complex 3D data such as structure-based drug design (SBDD), where it offers new ways to visualize and manipulate complex molecular structu...

Persistent Directed Flag Laplacian (PDFL)-Based Machine Learning for Protein-Ligand Binding Affinity Prediction.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
Directionality in molecular and biomolecular networks plays an important role in the accurate representation of the complex, dynamic, and asymmetrical nature of interactions present in protein-ligand binding, signal transduction, and biological pathw...

Can Deep Learning Blind Docking Methods be Used to Predict Allosteric Compounds?

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Allosteric compounds offer an alternative mode of inhibition to orthosteric compounds with opportunities for selectivity and noncompetition. Structure-based drug design (SBDD) of allosteric compounds introduces complications compared to their orthost...

Atomic context-conditioned protein sequence design using LigandMPNN.

Nature methods
Protein sequence design in the context of small molecules, nucleotides and metals is critical to enzyme and small-molecule binder and sensor design, but current state-of-the-art deep-learning-based sequence design methods are unable to model nonprote...

Leveraging Transfer Learning for Predicting Protein-Small-Molecule Interaction Predictions.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
A complex web of intermolecular interactions defines and regulates biological processes. Understanding this web has been particularly challenging because of the sheer number of actors in biological systems: ∼10 proteins in a typical human cell offer ...

Developing predictive models for µ opioid receptor binding using machine learning and deep learning techniques.

Experimental biology and medicine (Maywood, N.J.)
Opioids exert their analgesic effect by binding to the µ opioid receptor (MOR), which initiates a downstream signaling pathway, eventually inhibiting pain transmission in the spinal cord. However, current opioids are addictive, often leading to overd...

Probing the dark chemical matter against PDE4 for the management of psoriasis using in silico, in vitro and in vivo approach.

Molecular diversity
The potential downsides for the present treatment for psoriasis are drug resistance, reduced efficacy, risk of mental episodes, and drug interactions. Hence, this study aims to discover a new drug for psoriasis by considering global research efforts ...

Artificial Intelligence: A New Tool for Structure-Based G Protein-Coupled Receptor Drug Discovery.

Biomolecules
Understanding protein structures can facilitate the development of therapeutic drugs. Traditionally, protein structures have been determined through experimental approaches such as X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and cryo-electron microscopy...

Computational discovery of novel PI3KC2α inhibitors using structure-based pharmacophore modeling, machine learning and molecular dynamic simulation.

Journal of molecular graphics & modelling
PI3KC2α is a lipid kinase associated with cancer metastasis and thrombosis. In this study, we present a novel computational workflow integrating structure-based pharmacophore modeling, machine learning (ML), and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to...
