Scaffold hopping has been widely used in drug discovery and is a topic of high interest. Here a deep conditional transformer neural network, SyntaLinker, was applied for the scaffold hopping of a phase III clinical Akt inhibitor, AZD5363. A number of...
The beta-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) is a transmembrane aspartyl-protease, that cleaves amyloid precursor protein (APP) at the β-site. The sequential proteolytic cleavage of APP, first by β-secretase and then by γ-secreta...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is booming. Among various AI approaches, generative models have received much attention in recent years. Inspired by these successes, researchers are now applying generative model techniques to de novo drug design, which ...
The vast majority of approved drugs are metabolized by the five major cytochrome P450 (CYP) isozymes, 1A2, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6 and 3A4. Inhibition of CYP isozymes can cause drug-drug interactions with severe pharmacological and toxicological consequences....
