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....
Molecular interaction fields (MIFs), describing molecules in terms of their ability to interact with any chemical entity, are one of the most established and versatile concepts in drug discovery. Improvement of this molecular description is highly de...
INTRODUCTION: Dioscorea deltoidea var. deltoidea (Dioscoreaceae) is a valuable endangered plant of great medicinal and economic importance due to the presence of the bioactive compound diosgenin. In the present study, response surface methodology (RS...
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...
A simple and fast methodology under microwave irradiation for the synthesis of 2-aminopyrimidine and pyrazole derivatives using Atwal reaction is reported. After the optimization of the reaction conditions, eight 2-aminolpyrimidines containing ferroc...
