Structural stability-guided scaffold hopping and computational modeling of tankyrase inhibitors targeting colorectal cancer.

PloS one
Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide, mainly due to aberrant Wnt/β-catenin signaling resulting from APC mutations. Tankyrase is a key regulator of this pathway and plays a crucial role in stabilizing AXIN,...

PyaiVS unifies AI workflows to accelerate ligand discovery and yields ABCG2 inhibitors.

European journal of medicinal chemistry
Developing optimized AI models for virtual screening requires coordinated selection of algorithms, molecular representations, and data splitting strategies, yet lacks integrated tools. We present PyaiVS, a Python package that integrates nine machine ...

Integrating Machine Learning into Free Energy Perturbation Workflows.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Free energy perturbation (FEP) methods are among the most accurate tools in structure-based drug design for predicting protein-ligand binding affinities. However, their adoption remains limited due to high computational demands and complex setup proc...

Machine Learning Navigated Allosteric Network to Unveil Biased Allosteric Modulation of GPCRs.

Journal of chemical theory and computation
Biased allosteric modulators (BAMs) offer a promising avenue for developing safer and more selective therapeutics for G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). However, their molecular mechanisms remain unclear due to the complex combination of biased and...

Bioactivity Deep Learning for Complex Structure-Free Compound-Protein Interaction Prediction.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Protein-ligand binding affinity assessment plays a pivotal role in virtual drug screening, yet conventional data-driven approaches rely heavily on limited protein-ligand crystal structures. Structure-free compound-protein interaction (CPI) methods ha...

HitScreen: A Sequence-Based Drug Virtual Screening Approach Using Data Augmentation and Protein Language Models.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Sequence-based drug-target interaction (DTI) prediction is an effective approach for identifying potential drug candidates without relying on three-dimensional protein structures. However, current sequence-based methods often suffer from limited gene...
