AI-designed PNA-peptide chimera overcomes suboptimal binding for dual inhibition of viral RdRp.

European journal of medicinal chemistry
The chimera combining the peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) and peptides represent a promising bifunctional strategy by concurrently binding with protein catalytic pocket and its associated RNA template, effectively disrupting protein's function. Conventi...

RAPID-Net: Accurate Pocket Identification for Binding-Site-Agnostic Docking.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Accurate identification of druggable pockets and their features is essential for structure-based drug design and effective downstream docking. Here, we present RAPID-Net, a deep learning-based algorithm designed for accurate prediction of binding poc...

How Feasible Is Docking of PROTACs to POI-E3L Complexes? Testing Physics-Based and ML-Based Docking Tools.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Targeted protein degradation (TPD) is an innovative drug discovery approach that leverages small molecules to induce proximity between a protein of interest (POI) and an E3 ubiquitin ligase (E3L) for selective degradation. Among TPD modalities, prote...

Asymmetric Dynamics Between the Protomers of the σ2 Receptor Homodimer.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
The sigma-2 receptor (σR/TMEM97) is a clinically relevant membrane protein involved in cholesterol regulation and overexpressed in cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Despite its therapeutic potential, the dynamic mechanisms underlying σR function...
