Docking-based virtual screening tools customized to mine ultralarge chemical spaces are consistently reported to yield both higher hit rates and more potent ligands than that achieved by conventional docking of smaller million-sized compound librarie...
Proteins are biomolecules characterized by uncommon chemical and physicochemical complexities coupled with extreme responsiveness to even minor chemical modifications or environmental variations. Since the shape that proteins assume is fundamental fo...
BACKGROUND: Association and cooperation among structural domains play an important role in protein function and drug design. Despite remarkable advancements in highly accurate single-domain protein structure prediction through the collaborative effor...

Predicting protein-ligand binding affinity is crucial for drug discovery. However, existing prediction methods often make insufficient use of the features of proteins and ligands, lack interactions between different information, and have difficulty i...
Protein aggregation is a pathological hallmark of more than 50 human diseases and a major problem for biotechnology. Methods have been proposed to predict aggregation from sequence, but these have been trained and evaluated on small and biased experi...
The 2024 Nobel Prize in chemistry has been awarded to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper (Google DeepMind) for the development of artificial intelligence-guided protein structure prediction and to David Baker (University of Washington, Seattle, USA) f...
Molecules provide the ultimate language in terms of which physiology and pathology must be understood. Myriads of proteins participate in elaborate networks of interactions and perform chemical activities coordinating the life of cells. To perform th...
