Boosting Docking-Based Virtual Screening with Deep Learning.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
In this work, we propose a deep learning approach to improve docking-based virtual screening. The deep neural network that is introduced, DeepVS, uses the output of a docking program and learns how to extract relevant features from basic data such as...

Development of pharmacophore-based classification model for activators of constitutive androstane receptor.

Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics
Constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) is predominantly expressed in the liver and is important for regulating drug metabolism and transport. Despite its biological importance, there have been few attempts to develop in silico models to predict the a...

Improved pan-specific prediction of MHC class I peptide binding using a novel receptor clustering data partitioning strategy.

HLA
Pan-specific prediction of receptor-ligand interaction is conventionally done using machine-learning methods that integrates information about both receptor and ligand primary sequences. To achieve optimal performance using machine learning, dealing ...

Correcting the impact of docking pose generation error on binding affinity prediction.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Pose generation error is usually quantified as the difference between the geometry of the pose generated by the docking software and that of the same molecule co-crystallised with the considered protein. Surprisingly, the impact of this e...

A D3R prospective evaluation of machine learning for protein-ligand scoring.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
We assess the performance of several machine learning-based scoring methods at protein-ligand pose prediction, virtual screening, and binding affinity prediction. The methods and the manner in which they were trained make them sufficiently diverse to...

Molecular graph convolutions: moving beyond fingerprints.

Journal of computer-aided molecular design
Molecular "fingerprints" encoding structural information are the workhorse of cheminformatics and machine learning in drug discovery applications. However, fingerprint representations necessarily emphasize particular aspects of the molecular structur...

In Silico Prediction of Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid Type-A Receptors Using Novel Machine-Learning-Based SVM and GBDT Approaches.

BioMed research international
Gamma-aminobutyric acid type-A receptors (GABAARs) belong to multisubunit membrane spanning ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) which act as the principal mediators of rapid inhibitory synaptic transmission in the human brain. Therefore, the category p...

Knodle: A Support Vector Machines-Based Automatic Perception of Organic Molecules from 3D Coordinates.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Here we address the problem of the assignment of atom types and bond orders in low molecular weight compounds. For this purpose, we have developed a prediction model based on nonlinear Support Vector Machines (SVM), implemented in a KNOwledge-Driven ...

Protease Inhibitors in View of Peptide Substrate Databases.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Protease substrate profiling has nowadays almost become a routine task for experimentalists, and the knowledge on protease peptide substrates is easily accessible via the MEROPS database. We present a shape-based virtual screening workflow using vROC...

Effect of Binding Pose and Modeled Structures on SVMGen and GlideScore Enrichment of Chemical Libraries.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Virtual screening consists of docking libraries of small molecules to a target protein followed by rank-ordering of the resulting structures using scoring functions. The ability of scoring methods to distinguish between actives and inactives depends ...
