Machine Learning-Assisted Iterative Screening for Efficient Detection of Drug Discovery Starting Points.

Journal of medicinal chemistry
High-throughput screening (HTS) remains central to small molecule lead discovery, but increasing assay complexity challenges the screening of large compound libraries. While retrospective studies have assessed active-learning-guided screening, extens...

Measurement and prediction of small molecule retention by Gram-negative bacteria based on a large-scale LC/MS screen.

Scientific reports
The challenge of assessing intracellular accumulation represents a major hurdle to the discovery of new antibiotics with Gram-negative activity. To address this, a high-throughput assay was developed to measure compound uptake and retention in Escher...

Temperature-Dependent Small-Molecule Solubility Prediction Using MoE-Enhanced Directed Message Passing Neural Networks.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Solubility prediction is crucial for drug development and materials science, yet existing models struggle with generalizability across diverse solvents and temperatures. This study develops a novel solubility prediction model, DMPNN-MoE, which integr...
